SMISOL® Clim
A guarantee of SCT Quality.
Applications
- Air conditioning
- Transportation of refrigerant gases (R32, R410A, R407, …).
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
SMISOL® Clim is a result of close customer-manufacturer cooperation, meeting the needs of an increasingly demanding market asking technological solutions able to fully meet the technical specifications required by the air conditioning sector, while maintaining a good quality/price ratio.
This copper tube is manufactured according to EN 12735-1, and is pre-insulated with expanded closed cell polyethylene in accordance with EN ISO 1578 and it is distributed in coils of 50 m. The dimensions are defined in inches and as expressly indicated by EN 12735- 1, in section 6.3.2, they may be agreed between manufacturer and customer.
SMISOL® Clim is also characterised by particularly low eccentricity values, a very important feature for flaring operations.
Sheat characteristics
- Thermal conductivity: λ≤ 0,038 W/m°K at 40°C.
- Average value of the water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000.
- Average sheath density: 33 kg/m³.
- Free of ammonia residues.
- 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®Clim is safeguarded by fitting terminal sealing stoppers at production.
External protection
Polyethylene closed cell expanded foam with average water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000.
The insulating sheath has class BL-s1-d0 compliant pursuant to EN 13501-1 and 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.
Eccentricity
Eccentricity defines the distance between the centre of the outer circumference and that of the inner circumference and it is a fundamental parameter for flaring operations. Eccentrity is zero when the two centres coincide perfectly (Fig. 1), while in the presence
of eccentricity, the greater its value, the more variation is evident in the wall thickness (fig. 2).
Scope of supply
Seamless, drawn copper tube, produced in accordance with EN 12735-1, R220 annealed physical status, phosphorised Cu DHP (Cu + Ag : 99.90% min. – P: 0.015÷0.040%) according to EN 1412, cleaning treatment of the internal surface of the tube in line with with EN 12735-1 e ASTM B280 with soluble residue of less than 0.38 mg/dm2, shiny aspect of internal surface, indelible labelling every 60 cm with punching of the external surface of the copper tube, covered at the production stage with a PE-LD closed cell expansion insulation, white RAL 9010, colour, heat conductivity λ ≤ 0,038 W/mk, protected by PE film in white RAL 9010 colour, average value of the water vapour diffusion resistance factor “μ” above 15000, ink labelling on the external surface of the insulation with progressive indication of the measurement in metres with SMISOL® Clim label, Resistance to fire is class BL-s1-d0, capped at the ends.
