Component Specifications

Definition
The Outer Cover is a protective component of a Thermal Insulation Jacket system, designed to shield internal insulation materials from environmental factors, mechanical damage, and contamination while maintaining thermal efficiency. It serves as the primary barrier against external elements in industrial heating/cooling applications.
Working Principle
Acts as a protective barrier that prevents physical damage, moisture ingress, and chemical exposure to the underlying insulation layers while allowing heat retention/containment functions to operate efficiently. It typically incorporates fastening systems for secure installation and removal.
Materials
Stainless steel (AISI 304/316), aluminum alloys (6061-T6), galvanized steel, or high-temperature polymers (PEEK, PTFE) depending on application requirements. Thickness typically 0.8-2.0mm for metals.
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 2-15kg depending on size
  • IP Rating IP54 minimum
  • Thickness 1.2mm standard
  • Fastening Type Quick-release clamps or bolted connections
  • Surface Finish Powder coated or polished
  • Temperature Range -40°C to 650°C
Standards
ISO 12241, ISO 13732, DIN 4108, DIN 18195
