Insulation brick based on Calcium Silicate is reacted Calcium Silicate containing reinforcing fibers (non-asbestos). It offers thermal efficiency of flexible insulation like mineral wool and strength of conventional Insulation Bricks.
Insulation pipes are ideal replacement for fibrous insulation and are un-matched in places where insulation is exposed to water, floor traffic, and impact loads etc.
Insulations based on Calcium Silicate meet specifications as under: -
* IS 8154 & 8428
* Relevant Naval Specifications
* ASTM C 533-90
* B.S.3958 part II.
Advantages: -
* Low Thermal Conductivity
* Rigid & Light Weight (Density 250 kg/M3)
* Good Mechanical Strength (Above 10kg./cm2)
* Fire Resistant
* Low shrinkage
* Low specific Heat
* Non Combustible & Non Corrosive
* Low Maintenance Cost
* Re-usable & Long life
* Easily Workable (cuts easily)
Applications: -
* Cement: - Preheaters/Precalciners, Coolers, TAD etc.
* Aluminum: - Reduction pots, Other Thermal Process Equipment
* Glass: - Furnace, Recuperators, Annealing etc.
* Steel: - Various types of furnaces as refractory back up.
* Power Plants: - Boilers, Steam Lines, Recuperators etc.
* Fertilizers:- Reformers, Steam Lines, Furnaces, incinerators, high temp. equipments,
Hot Gas & Chemical lines etc.
* Ceramic: - Tunnel kilns.
