21、.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 Each insulation unit is a rigid, self-contained, prefabri-cated metal construction comprised of an inner casing and anouter casing, and if needed, one or more reflective linerssupported and spaced so as to minimize internal convectionand conduction. These parts are a
22、rranged to form a durablerigid assembly with separated air spaces between the inner andouter casing and the individual reflective liners.5.2 The reflective insulation described herein is limited tosystems of insulating units, designed by the manufacturer to fitthe equipment or piping to be insulated
23、, and engineered for thepurchasers service requirements.5.3 All parts of reflective insulation units be made of metalsthat meet the thermal, physical, and chemical requirements notonly of the insulation as a unit, but also as an assembly of unitsforming the insulation system. The materials shall per
24、formtheir functions for the service life specified and be compatiblewith the environment in which they will be used.5.4 The stainless steel liners/foils shall be a minimum of0.002 in. (0.05 mm) in thickness. Liners shall have anemittance of 0.25 or less when tested at 75 F (24 C) inFIG. 1 Illustrati
25、on of Terms Relating to Prefabricated Reflective Insulation SystemsC667092accordance with Test Method C 1371. There shall be a mini-mum of three foils per in. of insulation thickness. The optionsfor the foils configuration are flat or patterned.6. Temperature Limitations6.1 Each insulation unit must
26、 effectively limit the flow ofheat through the insulation by radiation, convection, andconduction. The reflective liners (also referred to as radiationshields or foils) are made of metals having low emittance andhigh reflectance. The emittance shall be tested in accordancewith Test Method C 835 or C
27、 1371. The number and spacing ofthe liners are determined by the required limitation of heatflow.6.2 The temperature limits of various materials shall bebased on the potential increase in radiant heat transfer acrossspaces due to a reduction in reflectance and a correspondingincrease in emittance re
28、sulting from surface oxidation. Indi-vidual components of the insulation system operating attemperatures of 750F (400C) or higher shall not be made ofaluminum or aluminum alloys. Components operating at1200F (649C) or higher, shall be manufactured from Type300 series austenitic stainless steel or ma
29、terial with the sameproperties.6.3 A representative unit or assembly shall be tested inaccordance with Test Method C411.7. Thermal Performance7.1 The purchase specification shall clearly indicate thepermissible average rate of heat loss per unit area for each typeof surface. The tests shall be in ac
30、cordance with Test MethodC 335 for pipes, or Test Method C 1061 for flat surfaces, or atest method agreed upon between the purchaser and manufac-turer. Table 1 and Table 2 contain maximum values forapparent thermal conductivity. Butt joint heat losses shall beaccounted for by including at least one
31、butt joint within themetered area in thermal performance test. Practices C 1045 andC 1058 shall be used for determining and reporting thermaltransmission properties.7.2 Due to the limitation of present configurations of reflec-tive insulation, those being flat, cone and cylindrical, there canbe a si
32、gnificant difference between the hot equipment surfacearea and the outer case area. Therefore, the thermal perfor-mance for equipment be referenced to the area of the outercase, unless otherwise specified. To be consistent, the outercase area shall also be used for pipe, unless otherwise specified.7
33、.3 Thermal performance of pipe insulation per unit of coldsurface area shall be obtained by multiplying transference (T)or conductance (C) as determined by Test Methods C 335,byratio of the radii of the insulation outer surface (r2) and the testpipe (ro). Example:Cc 5 C 3 ro/r2(1)where:Cc = conducta
34、nce based on the area of the insulation (coldsurface).7.4 Heat loss shall include consideration of insulation ori-entation (horizontal or vertical) and the insulation joint design.7.5 The specification not limit both heat loss throughinsulation and outer case temperature at the same time. Ifpersonne
35、l exposure to high surface temperatures is consideredto be a danger in limited areas, those areas shall be explicitlyidentified with the maximum allowable surface temperatureand the ambient design conditions, and one or more of thefollowing alternatives shall be used.7.5.1 External guarding,7.5.2 Ad

Gaps required for thermalexpansion or for internal unit construction are permitted whenapproved by the purchaser.8.4 Insulation units and assemblies s
