We usually present photos from completed installations, showing already insulated equipment. Today, for comparison, we present one such unit before and after the installation of the insulation jacket. In this project, our task was to manufacture SUM Maintenance Guard jackets for valves located in a boiler room. The safety valve...
Valve assembly – facilitating maintenance work
The daily work of our technicians brings many design challenges when developing insulation jackets. At times, this process is made easier when our technical design specialists are dealing with a valve assembly. This is a more convenient situation for the entire team – both the design department, production, and those...
Did you know that…?
Each individual cover manufactured by SUM Poland undergoes a detailed two-stage quality control process!!! Yes, every cover is inspected twice.We must be certain that a product carrying a nameplate with the SUM Poland logo meets all requirements for this type of insulation. The jacket must conform to the technical drawing,...
Let’s take a look at how the covers look after several years of use.
Another recently completed successful project in a production facility? Yes and no… Successful, most definitely – but its completion date was 2022. The covers still look like new, with no significant signs of wear, despite being removed and refitted at least once a week in practice. We recently had the...
Maintains its shape for years!!!
Maintains its shape for years!!! In a light-hearted way, this is how the result of our work can be described – mould insulation. We design covers for “moving” equipment. Yes, unlike other technologies, thermal insulation covers make it possible to enclose equipment that, during operation, performs movements in horizontal, vertical...
Large dimensions
We have already demonstrated that large dimensions are neither an obstacle nor a challenge for us. Among other projects, we have installed covers on pipeline systems in district heating chambers, with diameters reaching up to DN 1,200 mm!!!!! In the photo below, we present a recent project where the circumference...
Installation outside the building
It has been a long time since we last showed our covers installed outside a building. As seen in the attached image, the installation is only partially protected by walls. The covers are therefore exposed to sunlight, wind, rain, snow and temperature fluctuations. The insulated valves operate in demanding weather...
HEATING ELEMENTS FOR INJECTION MOULDING MACHINES
High temperatures on equipment always mean a short payback period for investment in thermal insulation covers. This is particularly true in the case of extruders and injection moulding machine heaters. How do we know this? After installing SUM Guard covers, customers take their own measurements and share their findings with...
Thermal insulation cover for IBC intermediate bulk containers
SUM IBC Guard thermal insulation covers for IBC intermediate bulk containers, equipped with a heating system and thermostat, are designed to maintain a specified process-required temperature and/or prevent the temperature from falling below a set level (protection against freezing or crystallisation). They are designed for repeated use and do not...
Insulation filling in SUM GUARD covers
Why do we use mechanically needled glass fibre mat (E-Glass) instead of mineral wool in our covers? The answer is simple. In the production of our SUM GUARD covers, we use only high-quality components, and needle-punched glass fibre mat is one of them. Mechanically needled glass fibre (E-Glass), unlike standard...
