Advantages of the product
Non-flammable sheat
Class BL-s1-d0 compliant
Polyethylene closed cell expanded foam with average water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000. The insulating sheath is manufactured under full compliance to European Regulation EEC/EU 2037/2000
The inner surface of the copper tube is bright, clean and dry, essential characteristics of this product category normally available on the market for industrial use.
Extremely low eccentricity values, a very important feature for jointing operations.
The production process ensures absolute adherence of the insulating sheath to the outside of the copper tube wall, so as to avoid the formation of gaps that would degrade insulating the thermal insulation performance.
Main features
This copper tube is manufactured according to EN 12735-1 (and ASTM B 68/M), and is pre-insulated with polyethylene foam characterised by a closed cell structure with regular and evenly distributed cell size (EN ISO 1578).
It is distributed in coils, with the tube diameter specified in millimetres. The insulating sheath is manufactured in full compliance with European Regulation EEC/EU 2037/2000 that enforces the use of insulating expanded foam sheaths devoid of CFCs and HCFCs which are harmful to health and the environment. The thickness of the sheath is designed to satisfy the various requirements of this application area.
Given the particular application field, special attention is reserved for the external protective polyethylene film deigned to prevent the formation of condensation on the outer wall of the product.
Sheat characteristics
- Thermal conductivity: ≤0,038 W/m°K at 40°C.
- Average value of the water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000 (EN 13469).
- Average sheath density: 30 kg/m³.
- Free of ammonia residues.
- Excellent resistance to external chemical agents.
- Class BL-s1-d0 compliant pursuant to EN 13501-1
- Free of CFCs and HCFCs (Reg. EEC/EU 2037/2000).
Internal surface
The inner surface of the copper tube is bright, clean and dry, essential characteristics of this product category normally available on the market for industrial use. This particularity allows for the achievement of an integrated system with the terminal units of the plant. The particular internal factory cleanliness of SMISOL® Frio is safeguarded by fitting terminal stoppers at production.
External protection
Polyethylene closed cell expanded foam with average water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000. The insulating sheath is manufactured under full compliance to European Regulation EEC/EU 2037/2000 which enforces the use of expanded foam insulation sheaths devoid of CFCs and HCFCs which are harmful to health and the environment and have class BL-s1-d0 compliant pursuant to EN 13501-1
