Removable reusable insulation systems are becoming a necessary component for plant owners and maintenance managers due to the ease of application during a removal or maintenance cycle.
A rapid “Return of Investment” of approximately* 6-12 months due to the energy savings, plus an ongoing pay back through reduced labour savings in a removal cycle during maintenance ensures continuous payback of investment to the plant owner.
ThermoPly Systems offers several benefits to the owner:
- Reduces energy requirements through the prevention of heat loss or gain.
- Provides reduced labour requirements during maintenance when compared to conventional (hard or fibrous) insulation.
- ThermoPly Systems are designed for easy off and on and can be installed in minutes compared to hours for conventional insulation.
- Provides stable process temperature within the system by reducing hot or cold spots in-line. Flanges and valves that are usually left un-insulated in high maintenance areas can now be covered effectively and efficiently.
- No extra incurred insulation material costs when equipment is inspected or maintained. Conventional fibrous insulation is usually considered waste when removed due to the mechanical properties of the product.
- Provides Personnel Protection to employees by covering equipment that may cause burns or hearing hazards.
* Energy savings can be quantified when all cost variables are known:
- Operating Temperature
- Hours of Operation per year
- Ambient Temperature
- Cost of Energy, BTU/hr
