Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides tables of dimensions of pre-formed insulation that shall be used i

3、n fabricating covers foruse on valves, ells, tees, flanges, and vessels in the pressurerange from 150 to 1500 psi (1 to 10 MPa). These tables, whichare part of this standard, are published separately as the ASTMRecommended Dimensional Standards for Fabrication of Ther-mal Insulation Fitting Covers f

The tables also include dimensions foruse in forming thermal insulation into curved segments, andlagging, for application on vessels. T

5、his practice does not applyto reflective-type insulation.1.2 This practice does not specify fabrication methods.Thermal insulation for fitting covers is formed by numerousfabrication methods. In general, insulations are cut by circularor band saws, shaped by grinders or millers, or molded. Eachmetho

6、d has certain advantages and disadvantages, dependingupon the material to be formed, number of cuts required,material waste permissible, and quantity of fittings beingproduced. Fitting parts are assembled using adhesives andfabrication cements applied using dip pots, rollers, doctorblades, brush, or

7、 trowel, depending upon the materials beingused. Any specification of the fabrication techniques is beyondthe scope of this standard.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for

Fabrication6.1 Any method of forming may be used if the resultingfitting conforms to inside and outside the dimensions listed.6.2 The main body of the insulation fitting shall be cut fromstandard pipe size pipe covering of the proper size andthickness.6.3 Where only one insulation type is requ

18、ired, and isavailable in sufficient thickness, multiple layers are not re-quired.6.4 Where two insulations of different temperature ratingsare required, each insulation type shall be assembled in itsproper location in the fitting using double layer construction.6.5 Flat block, cut to proper curvatur

19、e, may be used in placeof preformed pipe insulation. The user shall be informed whena change, for example, supplying a fabricated product insteadof a molded or preformed pipe insulation, that may causedifferences in the thermal or mechanical performance charac-teristics of the end product.6.6 Where

20、the body of the flange cover extends overadjacent pipe insulation, the portion of the cover shall befabricated using the pipe insulation as the body and adding aninsert collar. Another method, which has been used, is byadding an insert or section, commonly called a “dutchman,”made of block.6.7 Valve

21、s manufactured by various companies for the samepressure and nominal pipe size may not have the same bonnetdimensions, or height of bonnet flange above centerline ofvalve. Because of this, the valve insulation is designed to fit thelargest valve of a size, type, and pressure. In some instances,addit

22、ional insulation may be required to fill or build up theinsulation for proper fitting around the bonnet. In otherinstances it may be necessary to cut back insulation around thebonnet to provide access to the packing gland. Cutout for handwheel assembly and packing gland should be done at time ofappl

23、ication.7. Assembly and Tolerances7.1 All formed pieces shall fit tightly together so that bothsides and length of the insulation joint can close within amaximum of116 in. (1.6 mm).7.2 Low-temperature pipe insulation fabricated from blockor board stock shall contain no more than four cemented“throug

24、h” joints per full section of insulation, excluding thehalf section mating plane.7.3 Finished pieces shall be identified using tags, attachedstrip, etc. for ease of field installation.7.4 The inner and outer surface of vessel insulation sectionsshall be concentric with the outer surface. The deviati

25、on fromconcentricity shall not exceed316 in. (5 mm).7.5 Material (glue, adhesives, etc.) used in the fabrication offitting covers shall be those recommended by the manufacturerfor the specific application and exposure conditions.8. Field Application Sequence8.1 Insulation coverings for welded or scr

26、ewed fittingsshould be applied before the pipe insulation.8.2 Pipe insulation should be installed up to all flanges,flanged fittings, and flanged valves. Provide sufficient space forfuture bolt removal where required.8.3 Covers for flanges, flanged fittings, and flanged valvesshould be installed so

27、as to extend, not less than specifiedthickness, over adjacent pipe insulation or minimum 2 in.(50mm).8.4 Where required, the junction between the pipe insula-tion and flanged fittings covers can, by use of non-settingcements, sealents or other methods, also serve as an expansionor contraction joint.
