In production plants, assemblies of different types of adjacent fittings are commonly encountered. They are characterised by a variety of shapes, sizes, and connections to other technical installations. The universal design of SUM Guard thermal insulation jackets means that combining different shapes does not pose a problem. The image shows...
Our covers at a cosmetics manufacturer
Companies operating in the cosmetics industry continuously invest in modernising their production lines. They purchase new machines and equipment designed in line with current technological trends. This is not only due to the fact that cosmetics production is carried out on an increasingly large scale, but also to ensure hygienic...
Where is thermal energy being lost from?
Are you wondering where heat is escaping in your plant? After all, most equipment and technical installations in industrial facilities are already insulated, and yet energy bills remain high and continue to hit your budget. What has been overlooked? Perhaps just a few valves. Are you sure? Or are there...
Pump set covers
We are going to show off a bit—why not? A job well done deserves a few words.Recently, at a client in the food industry, we installed insulation covers for pipework, including a pump set. Our SUM Guard thermal insulation products are perfectly tailored to both the equipment and the existing...
Covers for dehydrators
Within industrial valves and fittings, there are devices which may not be impressive in size, yet play a particularly important role. A good example of this is condensate drains. Condensate drains are used, among other applications, in steam transmission pipelines and heat exchanger equipment. The function of a condensate drain...
Covers for pasteurisers
Heat exchangers, whose primary function is to transfer heat between two (or more) circuits, are another type of installation/equipment that should be insulated. Heat exchangers form a very broad group of devices which, depending on their application, may differ significantly in size and construction type. We will focus here on...
What is the cost of thermal insulation covers?
SUM Guard thermal insulation covers are custom-made to measure. SUM Guard thermal insulation covers are manufactured to measure, based on a specific order, for a designated piece of equipment or industrial fitting. The investment cost is influenced not only by the size of the technical installation, but also by factors...
Perfect complement to fixed insulation – SUM Guard covers for valve and filter heads
We have written and shown on several occasions how perfectly flexible insulation in the form of thermal covers complements fixed insulation. This is also the case here.In a production facility, in an oil pumping station, we encountered – and we must admit this – very well-executed fixed insulation, alongside, as...
Maximum diameter of an insulated pipeline
Water and steam installations in district heating networks are often of very large dimensions. What was the largest diameter of pipelines insulated with SUM Maintenance Guard thermal insulation covers? The nominal diameter (DN) of pipelines in a district heating chamber reached up to 1,200 mm!!!!! How is it possible that,...
RTO
Our Specialists in Technical Development Specialists are increasingly visiting new production facilities and encountering further interesting equipment. Recently, technicians installed SUM Guard thermal insulation covers on a heat exchanger, manifolds, fan ducts, and the fan of an RTO installation. This particular equipment sparked our interest to such an extent that...
