Removable Insulation

According to Go Green Brooklyn’s Fai Walker, a class of 6th graders from Brooklyn’s MS 126 took a field trip to their school’s boiler room at the beginning of the winter season when heating costs and green house gas emissions rise. That’s exactly what these students were learning about when they observed the installation of a removable Thermaxx Jacket on their school’s boiler. Read more.

When it comes to thermal mechanical insulation, there are three major types: insulation for cold equipment, insulation for hot equipment, and insulation for equipment to prevent freezing. Accurately choosing the correct insulation in all three instances can help keep your equipment working at its best and save you money…More

After years of working in the insulation industry and insulating hundreds of steam components in NYC, I’ve observed that there is rarely insulation on the incoming (inlet) and outgoing (outlet) piping of a thermodynamic (TD) steam trap. This is because the facility manager will need to do maintenance on the thermodynamic steam trap assembly regularly, so using hard insulation on the components would limit his or her access to them… More

Many industrial facilities have steam pipes throughout their infrastructure regardless if the facility is a university or a manufacturing plant. Therefore, measuring varying degrees of heat loss is important to save money and protect your steam pipes with removable insulation covers.

Understanding how to calculate heat loss is the first step towards realizing the overall benefit removable insulation can have on your steam pipes and overall facility…More

Insulation blankets for industrial applications are vastly different than insulation used for domestic applications. Removable, reusable industrial insulation blankets are made by manufacturing specialists like Thermaxx Jackets with heavy-duty insulation materials that can withstand extreme conditions. In fact, Thermaxx guarantees its insulation jackets for 5 years because they’re built with high-quality materials. Additionally, industrial insulation blankets can be custom made to fit even the most unique component. Read more.

Thermaxx Jackets manufactures insulation jackets to insulate very hot applications, ranging from 600°F to 2500°F. Depending upon the temperature of the application, specific designs and materials need to be employed in manufacturing of a high temperature insulating jacket. Traditional materials and designs fail when used at high temperature. The first step in the hot jacket design is the materials selection. This requires an understanding of the hot component, the components environment and the design of the jacket… More

Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen, or NH₃.  Because of Ammonia’s vaporization properties, it is frequently used as a refrigerant. NH3 boils at −33.34 °C (−28.012 °F) at a pressure of one atmosphere, Ammonia was commonly used before Freons (chlorofluorocarbons) became popular. Read more.
