26、ion of aluminum jacketing is based on three factors:5.1.1 Outer surface treatment and emittance ():5.1.1.1 Type I = Bare surface, = 0.10.1,5.1.1.2 Type II = Painted with pigmented paint, = 0.8,5.1.1.3 Type III = Painted with unpigmented paint, = 0.5, andC1729 12c25.1.1.4 Type IV = Plastic film coate

The remaining Classes were not renumbere
30、d to avoid conflicts withengineering specifications that reference the remaining Classes.6. Materials and Manufacture6.1 Aluminum jacketing materials are composed of a single material or a lamination of several components. The materials aresupplied in the form of rolls or sheets or preformed to fit
31、the surface to which they are to be applied. The materials are appliedin the field or as a factory-applied composite with the insulation.6.2 The primary material shall be aluminum and shall have a finish that is smooth, 316 in. corrugated, or stucco embossed. Thedimensions of corrugations (pitch and
32、 depth) must be agreed to by manufacturer and purchaser to achieve interchangeability,constant rigidity, and appearance.6.3 In most cases, the inner surface of aluminum jacketing material is coated or covered with a moisture resistant film to retardpossible galvanic or chemical corrosion, or both, o
33、f the jacketing.6.4 For highly corrosive ambient conditions or to increase emittance, the purchaser shall specify that the outer surface of thealuminum be coated with a pigmented or unpigmented paint or with a plastic film.6.5 The aluminum used in this jacketing, with the exception of box rib, shall
34、 be manufactured from Specification , 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 of the aluminum layer which shall be in the range from 0.016 to0.050 in. (0.41 to 1
35、.27 mm)mm).6.7 Box rib aluminum jacketing pieces shall be manufactured from Specification B209, alloys 3003 or 3105 (Grade 1), alloys3004 or Alclad 3004 (Grades 4 and 5), or alloy 5052 (Grade 6) per Section 5.1.2 and shall be 0.032 in. (0.8 mm), 0.040 in. (1.0mm), 0.048 in. (1.2 mm), or 0.050 in (1.
36、3 mm) thick.NOTE 2Typical 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, and12 ft (2.4, 3.0, and 3.7 m). The pattern of grooves and ridges typically repeats on 4 in. (102 mm) centers and the height of each rib is typic
37、ally 1 in. (25mm).6.8 Deep corrugated aluminum jacketing pieces shall be 0.016 in. (0.4 mm), 0 .020 in. (0.5 mm), 0.024 in. (0.6 mm), 0.032in. (0.8 mm), 0.040 in. (1.0 mm), or 0.048 in. (1.2 mm) thick.6.8.1 Typical deep corrugated width is 33 in. (838 mm) and typical length is 6 to 12 ft (1.8 to 3.7
38、 m). Two nominal repeatingpatterns are common 1-14 in. (32 mm) on centers with a 14 in. (6 mm) height and a 2-12 in. (64 mm) on centers with a 58 in.(16 mm) height. For specific repeating pattern distances, the manufacturer shall be consulted.7. Physical Properties7.1 Required physical properties ar
39、e shown in Table 1 and Table 2.7.2 All aluminum jacketing shall demonstrate a flame spread of 25 or less and smoke developed of 50 or less when testing theouter side (the side opposite that contacting the insulation) in accordance with 11.2.NOTE 3Aluminum jacketing is not typically considered a fire
40、 resistant material. If a higher level of fire resistance or protection is required, alternativejacketing materials usually based on steel, should be considered.7.3 Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, the emittance of the jacketing shall be considered to be:7.3.1 Type I = 0.1 which is ty
41、pical for a normally oxidized aluminum jacket in service,7.3.2 Type II = 0.8 which is typical for a pigmented paint,7.3.3 Type III = 0.5 which is typical of an unpigmented paint, andC1729 12c37.3.4 Type IV = 0.85 which is typical of a plastic film surface.NOTE 4Testing of the emittance of Type I has
42、 yielded initial unoxidized values ranging from 0.03 to 0.05 and oxidized “in-service” values rangingfrom 0.1 to 0.31 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The use of an emittance of 0.1 is recommended here as being the most conservative value. 7.3 addresses the situationwhere a user of this standard wishes to consider
43、a different emittance value.7.4 Permissible thickness tolerances vary with nominal thickness and are shown in Table 3. Thickness is measured per 11.3.7.5 Requirements for permissible pinholes in the moisture retarder when tested per 11.4 are shown in Table 2.7.6 The moisture retarder shall have no v
44、isual defect that will affect performance and shall be free of laminated separations,holes, rips, tears, scratches, dents, non-uniform edges, or creases.7.7 Requirements for water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of the moisture retarders tested per 11.6 are shown in Table 2.Testing the WVTR of moistu
45、re retarders is not possible after they are applied to the aluminum jacketing so this testing shall bedone on the moisture retarders prior to application.8. Dimensions and Permissible Variations8.1 Dimensions for aluminum jacketing shall be as agreed to by purchaser and seller.8.2 When cut into shee
46、ts for use as pipe insulation jacketing, the dimension of the aluminum jacketing sheet designed toaccommodate the pipe insulation circumference shall be called the length and the other major dimension shall be identified as thewidth.8.2.1 The length shall be a minimum of the outer circumference of t
47、he insulation plus 2 in. (51 mm) for insulation outer diameter 20 in. (508 mm) and a minimum of the outer circumference of the insulation plus 2.5 in. (64 mm) for insulation outer diameter 20 in. (508 mm).8.2.2 Typical width is 36 in. (0.91 m), 48 in. (1.22 m), or 1 meter (39.4 in.).8.2.3 Dimensions
48、 differing from these standards are possible but must be agreed to by purchaser and seller.8.2.4 Tolerances for aluminum jacketing sheets shall be 6 18 in. (6 3mm) in width and length.8.3 When cut into sheets for use as equipment and vessel insulation jacketing, the longer dimension of the box rib o

(838 mm).8.3.2 Typical lengths of deep corrugated aluminum sheet are 6 to 12 ft (1.8 to 3.7 m).8.3.3 Typical widths of box rib aluminum sheet are 45-58 in. (1159 mm), 38.5 in. (978 mm), and 27.5 in. (699 mm).8.3.4 Typical lengths of box rib aluminum sheet are 8, 10, and 12 ft (2.4, 3.0, and 3.7 m)8.3.5 Dimensions differing from
