Foam Glass
A closed-cell insulation material for the -200 / +400 °C range, it is a reliable option for cold, cryogenic, and mechanically loaded lines.
A closed-cell insulation material for the -200 / +400 °C range, it is a reliable option for cold, cryogenic, and mechanically loaded lines.
Within the Prime Endüstri product structure, Foam Glass falls under Cold Application Products. When selecting the product, not only temperature resistance but also equipment geometry, ambient conditions, outer cladding needs, and maintenance access should be taken into account.
What Does the Product Do?
Which Field Problem Does It Address?
Foam Glass delivers real value when it is part of the right system detail, particularly in areas such as cryogenic lines, tank bottoms, outdoor cold lines, LNG equipment, and pipe support areas. Its success in the field depends on using its water and vapor resistance, compressive strength, and dimensional stability in harmony with the operating temperature, ambient conditions, cladding details, and installation quality.
Key Features
- Water and vapor resistance, compressive strength, and dimensional stability
- Can be specified with different thicknesses, facings, and application details depending on process conditions.
- Correct installation and post-application inspection are important for the product's long-term performance.
Areas of Use
Typical areas of use for this product can be summarized as cryogenic lines, tank bottoms, outdoor cold lines, LNG equipment, and pipe support areas. The exact application detail should be determined together with an on-site survey, equipment dimensions, and process data.
Selection Criteria
- Operating temperature and temperature cycling.
- Humidity, outdoor environment, chemical exposure, and mechanical impact risk.
- Equipment dimensions, connection points, and maintenance access.
- Vapor barrier, outer cladding, fire expectations, and post-application inspection needs.
Post-Application Performance
In Foam Glass applications, performance depends as much on installation quality as on selecting the right material. After the application, exposed surfaces, cladding continuity, connection points, and maintenance access should be inspected. This inspection helps the product maintain its expected insulation performance over the long term.
Prime Endüstri evaluates products not only on catalog data but on actual operating conditions in the field. This approach supports using the product on the right equipment and helps reduce unnecessary dismantling, performance loss, or the need for re-application during maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is Foam Glass the right choice?
It can be preferred in areas such as cryogenic lines, tank bottoms, outdoor cold lines, LNG equipment, and pipe support areas, provided the process conditions and equipment dimensions are suitable.
What information is needed for product selection?
Operating temperature, equipment dimensions, ambient conditions, the condition of the existing insulation, and maintenance expectations should be shared.
