Significance and Use4.1 This specification 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 requ
25、irements, shall use this specification to specifythe appropriate aluminum jacketing.5. Classification5.1 Classification of aluminum jacketing is based on threefactors:5.1.1 Outer surface treatment and emittance ():5.1.1.1 Type I = Bare surface, = 0.1,5.1.1.2 Type II = Painted with pigmented paint, =
26、 0.8,5.1.1.3 Type III = Painted with unpigmented paint, = 0.5,and5.1.1.4 Type IV = Plastic film coated surface, = 0.85.5.1.1.5 Paint systems for Types II and III must be factoryapplied and baked on.5.1.1.6 Plastic film for Type IV must be factory applied andheat laminated to the surface.5.1.2 Alloy
27、and Temper per Specification B209:5.1.2.1 Grade 1 = Alloy 3105 or 3003, half hard temper(H14,)5.1.2.2 Grade 2 = Alloy 3105 or 3003, quarter hard temper(H12 - lock forming quality),5.1.2.3 Grade 3 = Alloy 1100, dead soft temper,5.1.2.4 Grade 4 = Alloy 3004,5.1.2.5 Grade 5 = Alloy Alclad 3004 (alloy 3
28、004 clad bothsides with alloy 7072 for improved corrosion resistance), and5.1.2.6 Grade 6 = Alloy 5052.5.1.3 Moisture Retarder:5.1.3.1 Class A = polysurlyn, 3 mil thick,5.1.3.2 Class C = polykraft per section 3.2.10,5.1.3.3 Class D = painted, and5.1.3.4 ClassE=nomoisture retarder.NOTE 1Class B was r
29、emoved in 2011 because it was not used orproduced. The remaining Classes were not renumbered to avoid conflictswith engineering specifications that reference the remaining Classes.6. Materials and Manufacture6.1 Aluminum jacketing materials are composed of a singlematerial or a lamination of several
30、 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 s
31、mooth,316 in. corrugated, or stucco embossed.The dimensions of corrugations (pitch and depth) must beagreed to by manufacturer and purchaser to achieveinterchangeability, constant rigidity, and appearance.6.3 When agreed upon by purchaser and seller, aluminumsheets used as pipe insulation jacketing
32、(see 8.2) shall have asafety edge or a38 to12 in. (9.5 to 12.7 mm) safety hem alongone entire width edge of the sheet. Aluminum jacketing with asafety edge or safety hem must still meet the length dimensionsspecified in 8.2.1.6.4 In most cases, the inner surface of aluminum jacketingmaterial is coat
33、ed or covered with a moisture resistant film toretard possible galvanic or chemical corrosion, or both, of thejacketing.C1729 1326.5 For highly corrosive ambient conditions or to increaseemittance, the purchaser shall specify that the outer surface ofthe aluminum be coated with a pigmented or unpigm
34、entedpaint or with a plastic film.6.6 The aluminum used in this jacketing, with the exceptionof box rib, shall be manufactured from Specification , alloys3003, 3105, or 1100 with tempers of H14 (half hard), H12(quarter hard), or dead soft Grades 1, 2, or 3 per 5.1.2.6.7 Aluminum jacketing shall be s
35、pecified by the thicknessof the aluminum layer which shall be in the range from 0.016to 0.050 in. (0.41 to 1.27 mm).6.8 Box rib aluminum jacketing pieces shall be manufac-tured from Specification B209, alloys 3003 or 3105 (Grade 1),alloys 3004 or Alclad 3004 (Grades 4 and 5), or alloy 5052(Grade 6)
36、per Section 5.1.2 and shall be 0.032 in. (0.8 mm),0.040 in. (1.0 mm), 0.048 in. (1.2 mm), or 0.050 in (1.3 mm)thick.NOTE 2Typical box rib widths available are 45-58 in. (1159 mm), 38.5in. (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 patter
37、n of grooves and ridges typicallyrepeats on 4 in. (102 mm) centers and the height of each rib is typically1 in. (25 mm).6.9 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), 0.040 in. (1.0 mm), or 0.048 in. (1.2 mm)thick
38、.6.9.1 Typical deep corrugated width is 33 in. (838 mm) andtypical length is 6 to 12 ft (1.8 to 3.7 m). Two nominalrepeating patterns are common 1-14 in. (32 mm) on centerswith a14 in. (6 mm) height and a 2-12 in. (64 mm) on centerswith a58 in. (16 mm) height. For specific repeating patterndistances
39、, the manufacturer shall be consulted.7. Physical Properties7.1 Required physical properties are shown in Table 1 andTable 2.NOTE 3See section 10.9 for further information regarding Table 1.7.2 All aluminum jacketing shall demonstrate a flamespread of 25 or less and smoke developed of 50 or less whe
40、ntesting the outer side (the side opposite that contacting theinsulation) in accordance with 11.2.NOTE 4Aluminum jacketing is not typically considered a fire resistantmaterial. If a higher level of fire resistance or protection is required,alternative jacketing materials usually based on steel, shou
41、ld be consid-ered.7.3 Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, theemittance of the jacketing shall be considered to be:7.3.1 Type I = 0.1 which is typical for a normally oxidizedaluminum 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
42、 typical of an unpigmentedpaint, and7.3.4 Type IV = 0.85 which is typical of a plastic filmsurface.NOTE 5Testing of the emittance of Type I has yielded initialunoxidized values ranging from 0.03 to 0.05 and oxidized “in-service”values ranging from 0.1 to 0.31 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The use of an emittance
43、 of0.1 is recommended here as being the most conservative value. 7.3addresses the situation where a user of this standard wishes to consider adifferent emittance value.7.4 Permissible thickness tolerances vary with nominalthickness and are shown in Table 3. Thickness is measured per11.3.7.5 Requirem
44、ents 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 laminatedseparations, holes, rips, tears, scratches, dents, non-uniformedges, or creases.7.7 Requirem
45、ents 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. Dimensions
46、and Permissible Variations8.1 Dimensions for aluminum jacketing shall be as agreedto by purchaser and seller.8.2 When cut into sheets for use as pipe insulation jacketing,the dimension of the aluminum jacketing sheet designed toaccommodate the pipe insulation circumference shall be calledthe length
47、and the other major dimension shall be identified asthe width.8.2.1 The length shall be a minimum of the outer circum-ference of the insulation plus 2 in. (51 mm) for insulation outerdiameter 20 in. (508 mm) and a minimum of the outercircumference of the insulation plus 2.5 in. (64 mm) forinsulation
48、 outer diameter 20 in. (508 mm).8.2.2 Typical width is 36 in. (0.91 m), 48 in. (1.22 m), or 1meter (39.4 in.).8.2.3 Dimensions differing from these standards are pos-sible but must be agreed to by purchaser and seller.8.2.4 Tolerances for aluminum jacketing sheets shall be 618 in. (6 3mm) in width a
49、nd length.8.3 When cut into sheets for use as equipment and vesselinsulation jacketing, the longer dimension of the box rib orcorrugated aluminum jacketing sheet shall be called the lengthand the other (shorter) major dimension shall be identified asthe width.8.3.1 Typical width of deep corrugated aluminum sheet is33 in. (838 mm).8.3.2 Typical lengths of deep corrugated aluminum sheet are6 to 12 ft (1.8 to 3.7 m).TABLE 1 Minimum Thickness for Pipe JacketingMinimum Allowable Aluminum Thickness (in.)Outer InsulationDiameter (in.)Ri
