What Are the Insulation Selection Criteria for High Temperature Systems?
Examples of super hot systems include high pressure steam lines, process lines, exhaust systems, or any systems that operate at temperatures from 601°F to 1500°F. Reducing heat loss and protecting personnel is the primary reason for installing insulation in hot environments. There are insulations specially designed for high temperature systems – and selecting the right one should be based on the unique requirements of the system you are insulating. Be sure to examine the insulation thermal values and other performance values carefully.
