ThermalInsulation

Is a material having relatively high resistance to heat flow

Stationary air is common in all the insulating materials providingthe insulation effect.

Advantages

Energy Conservation Minimizes Heat Loss

Control / Prevent Surface Condensation - Cold applications

Control Surface temperatures Hot applications.

FibreglassPARAMETERS FIBRE GLASS

Thermal Conductivity 0.035 W/m @ O DegC

Fire Resistance Class O / FM approval

Ageing Heavy deterioration in thermal properties with time on

account of humid conditions. Fiber glass also supports the

growth of mildew, fungus and bacteria.

Service Temperature - 195 to 225 Deg C

Water Vapour Transmission Requires cladding to protect from moisture ingress

Water Absorption Extremely high.

Health and Safety

Contains fibers and can enter the air stream.

Installation Time consuming and not installer friendly

Cost Economic
