Careflex NBR Insulation Tube is a flexible thermal insulation material made from closed-cell, elastomeric nitrile rubber. Aerocell is produced in preformed sheets and pipe sections. These products meet insulation requirements in diverse fields such as the Automobile, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration industry, Construction industry, Hospital industry, Pharma industry, Hotels and Cold storage industries
- Airconditioning Projects: - For Insulating chilled water pipes, chillers, Supply & return Air Ducts and Ancillary Equipments.
- Hot & Cold Water Plumbing System:– For insulating hot & cold Pipes used in Commercial, Residential Building & Various Industries.
- Solar Water Heating System: – For Insulating Delivery Pipes, Panel and hot water Storage tank etc.
- Refrigeration Industries: – For Insulating Pipes Works & ancillary Equipments for Refrigeration.
- Process works: – For Insulating Pipes carrying Hot and cold Fluids Including Equipments.
- Many Other Areas: – For Energy Conservation in Almost All Areas i.e. Hotel, Hospitals, Dairy & Food Processing ,Cold storages, Refineries & Cold mountainous Regions.
In above application Careflex insulation use in Hot and cold water piping system. For better maintain of Water Temperature.
- Excellent insultion properties due to low k-value, that remain unchanged during service life time of hot/cold installation and are unaffected by humidity.
- The closed-cell structure will not absorb or allow the spread of water, thus preventing condensation or frost formation on cooling systems, chilled water & refrigerant lines. No additional water vapour barriers are required.
- Can be Supplied aluminium foil / Glass Cloth and Adhesive backing for increased performance and quicker installation.
- Wide working temperature (-40°C to +105°C).
- Thinner gauges can be used to achieve effective insulation due to low k-value and high water vapour diffusion resistance. This also allows the use of material in areas with space limitations.
- Class 0 fire performance as per BS 476 Part 6 & 7, VL 94, flammability Class V-0
