Significance and Use4.1 This specif
19、ication is used to specify material by physicalproperty requirements that address the prerequisites in Sections6 to 10. The designer of an insulation system, after determiningthe system requirements, shall use this specification to specifythe appropriate aluminum jacketing.5. Classification5.1 Class
20、ification of aluminum jacketing is based on threefactors:5.1.1 Outer surface treatment and emittance (e):5.1.1.1 Type I = Bare surface, = 0.15.1.1.2 Type II = Painted with pigmented paint, = 0.8,5.1.1.3 Type III = Painted with unpigmented paint, = 0.5,and5.1.1.4 Type IV = Plastic film coated surface

Materials and Manufacture6.1 Aluminum jacketing materials are composed of a singlematerial or a lamination of several
24、components. The materialsare supplied in the form of rolls or sheets or preformed to fit thesurface to which they are to be applied. The materials areapplied in the field or as a factory-applied composite with theinsulation.6.2 The primary material shall be aluminum and shall havea finish that is sm
25、ooth,316 in. corrugated, or stucco embossed.The dimensions of corrugations (pitch and depth) must beagreed to by manufacturer and purchaser to achieve inter-changeability, constant rigidity, and appearance.6.3 In most cases, the inner surface of aluminum jacketingmaterial is coated or covered with a
26、 moisture resistant film toretard possible galvanic or chemical corrosion, or both, of thejacketing.6.4 For highly corrosive ambient conditions or to increaseemittance, the purchaser shall specify that the outer surface ofthe aluminum be coated with a pigmented or unpigmentedpaint or with a plastic
27、film.6.5 The aluminum used in this jacketing, with the exceptionof box rib, shall be manufactured from Specification B209,alloys 3003, 3105, or 1100 with tempers of H14 (half hard),H12 (quarter hard), or dead soft Grades 1, 2, or 3 per 5.1.2.6.6 Aluminum jacketing shall be specified by the thickness
28、of the aluminum layer which shall be in the range from 0.016to 0.050 in. (0.41 to 1.27 mm)6.7 Box rib aluminum jacketing pieces shall be manufac-tured from Specification B209, alloys 3004 or Alclad 3004 Grades 4 and 5 per Section 5.1.2 and shall be 0.032 in. (0.8mm), 0.040 in. (1.0 mm), or 0.050 in
29、(1.3 mm) thick.NOTE 1Typical box rib widths available are 45-58 in. (1159 mm),38.5 in. (978 mm), and 27.5 in. (699 mm). Typical lengths available are 8,10, and 12 ft (2.4, 3.0, and 3.7 m). The pattern of grooves and ridgestypically repeats on 4 in. (102 mm) centers and the height of each rib istypic
30、ally 1 in. (25 mm).6.8 Deep corrugated aluminum jacketing pieces shall be0.016 in. (0.4 mm), 0 .020 in. (0.5 mm), 0.024 in. (0.6 mm),0.032 in. (0.8 mm), or 0.040 in. (1.0 mm) thick.NOTE 2Typical deep corrugated width is 33 in. (838 mm) and typicallength is 6 to 12 ft (1.8 to 3.7 m). Two repeating pa
31、tterns are common 1-14 in. (32 mm) on centers with a14 in. (6 mm) height and a 2-12 in. (64mm) on centers with a58 in. (16 mm) height.7. Physical Properties7.1 Required physical properties are shown in Table 1 andTable 2.7.2 All aluminum jacketing shall demonstrate a flamespread of 25 or less and sm
32、oke developed of 50 or less whentesting the outer side (the side opposite that contacting theinsulation) in accordance with 11.2.NOTE 3Aluminum jacketing is not typically considered a fire resistantmaterial. If a higher level of fire resistance or protection is required,alternative jacketing materia
33、ls usually based on steel, should be consid-ered.TABLE 1 Minimum Thickness for Pipe JacketingMinimum Allowable Aluminum Thickness (in.)Outer InsulationDiameter (in.)RigidInsulationNon-RigidInsulation# 8 0.016 0.016over 8 thru 11 0.016 0.020over 11 thru 24 0.016 0.024over 24 thru 36 0.020 0.032over 3

35、ch is typical of an unpigmentedpaint, and7.3.4 Type IV = 0.85 which is typical of a plastic filmsurface.NOTE 4Testing of the emittance of Type I has yielded initial unoxi-dized values ranging from 0.03 to 0.05 and oxidized “in-service” valuesranging from 0.1 to 0.31 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The use of an em
36、ittance of 0.1 isrecommended here as being the most conservative value. 7.3 addresses thesituation where a user of this standard wishes to consider a differentemittance value.7.4 Permissible thickness tolerances vary with nominalthickness and are shown in Table 3. Thickness is measured per11.3.7.5 R
37、equirements for permissible pinholes in the moistureretarder when tested per 11.4 are shown in Table 2.7.6 The moisture retarder shall have no visual defect thatwill affect performance and shall be free of laminated separa-tions, holes, rips, tears, scratches, dents, non-uniform edges, orcreases.7.7
38、 Requirements for water vapor transmission rate(WVTR) of the moisture retarders tested per 11.6 are shown inTable 2. Testing the WVTR of moisture retarders is notpossible after they are applied to the aluminum jacketing sothis testing shall be done on the moisture retarders prior toapplication.8. Di
