1. Scope
This standard is intended to specify type, thickness, calculation method and application procedures for insulation used on vessels operating in the tem perature range of -50F. to 0F. where corrosive conditions are present. It also specifies a suitable protective coating to withstand physical abuse where required.
2. General
The purpose of this standard is to provide a practical procedure for insu lating cold vessels such as brine storage and head tanks, brine cooled jacketed vessels,and tube and shell heat exchangers (refrigeration equip ment) . The material specified is impervious to the external elements including weather and chemical spills, and to internal elements when leaks allow process chemicals to be trapped between the insulation and the vessel. The materials used and method of application represents the most economical way to insulate vessels operating in the above temperature range and to satisfy process requirements.____________________________
The criteria for insulating these vessels are:
1) Maintain required process temperatures 2) Reduce heat gain of-brine or cooling agent 3) Prevent ice formation on vessel 4) Prevent sweating on either vessel or insulation surfaces.
3. Specifications
3.1 Materials. All cold vessels operating in the temperature range of -50F. to 0dF. and under corrosive conditions (except where extreme vibration is present) should be insulated with multiple layers of cellular glass insu lation.
3.1.1 Comparison of Materials. There are five types of insulation materials that can be used for cold applications. Three of these, mineral wool, expanded polystyrene, and hairfelt, are not suitable for the conditions of this standard. The other two, vegetable cork and cellular glass, are most

commonly used. Cork is clean to work with and offers fair resistance to impact due to its resilience. However, it is difficult to cut and shape in the field for fitting around various obstacles as compared to cellular glass which can be trimmed, cut, or notched very quickly and easily. Cellular glass dust created by cutting operations can result in a minor clean up pro blem unless care is taken to contain it. Labor time can be reduced on most installations by about one third when using cellular glass.
Cellular glass is more readily available and can be supplied on short notice, shaped to various contours. Material cost is comparable to cork although cork is slightly higher on the basis of total job cost, irregardless of thicknesses required.
The primary advantage of cellular glass over cork is that due to its com position and cellular structure it is unaffected by chemical leaks and spills.' The absorption of water or chemicals by cork will result in cracks because its low tensile strength will not withstand the additional weight. However, cellular glass is a practical insulation to use in either environ ment, whether liquid absorption is a problem or not.
3.1.2 Thickness Requirements. The first consideration in making a selection of insulation thickness is to determine the process temperature requirements. This is usually done by holding to a minimum the allowable heat gain of the brine or cooling agent. In most cases, sweating is the biggest problem to overcome in insulating vessels in the -50F to 0F temper ature range. Therefore, if the insulation is designed to prevent condensation, the heat gain of the brine will probably be minimum and the process tempera ture requirements met. Equally important, along with the thickness of insula tion, is the positive seal to eliminate air from penetrating through the joints of the insulation, resulting in ice build up on the vessel surfaces. This T.s the reason for using a good combination cement and sealing compound and staggering all joints. Recommended thicknesses of cellular glass insulation on flat surfaces is shown below for the following conditions:
90F. outside ambient air temperature 807. relative humidity .9 emissivity factor (uncoated cellular glass) 10.50 BTU/hr./sq. ft. average heat gain 0 MPH wind velocity
Temperature range 0 to -20F - 4" thick Temperature range -20 to -40F - 4-1/2" thick Temperature range -40 to -50F - 5" thick
The above thicknesses are minimum. For borderline cases use an additional 1/2" thickness.
3.1.3 Calculations. The above atmospheric and heat transfer conditions will cover most applications. However, since temperature and humidity vary considerably from one locality to another, required thicknesses can be calculate and verified as follows:
(3) HNA 1434 3
.::;neer::2 March 7, 2 26 2
Using the formula q = T2-T 1 where: _X_ K
q = BTU/hr./sq. ft. insulation surface
T2 = Ambient outside temperature F. (dry bulb)
= Lowest inside temperature F. (process or cooling agent temperature)
X = Insulation thickness
K = BTU/hr./sq. ft./ F/ in. thickness (see conductivity nomograph)
Example:
A brine circulating tank is to be insulated to prevent condensation and main tain a -30F. brine temperature with an outside temperature of 80F. (still air) and a relative humidity of 75%.
q = 13.23 allowable heat gain, BTU/hr./sq. ft. of insulation surface. This is found by first determining the dew point from Psychrometric chart or attached dew point graph. (Fig. 1) To use graph follow 80F. line from bottom of sheet to intersection point of diagonal 757. relative humidity line. Read to left of sheet for dew point which is 71. Subtracting this from 80 (dry bulb temperature) we have 9F. difference between air and surface temperatures. Using attached table of values, (Table 1) which gives allowable BTU gain or loss/F. (difference between air and surface temperature), find 80F. on left side of sheet (0 MPH). Read across to column under 9 and find 1.47. Since this is BTU/F. multiply 1.47 x 9 ( difference) for an allowable BTU gain/hr./sq. ft. of 13.23.
The values given in the table are for .9 emissivity and represents heat transmitted by convection plus heat transmitted by radiation. If .difference betwefiJL .airland--surface temperature is more than 10, additional graphs can be obtained from Pittsburg Corning* so that an allowable q can be found for almost any condition. There are a number of these graphs and a detailed explanation of their use would be lengthy. Since the attached table covers a wide variety of conditions, the additional graphs are not included in the standard.
T2 - 80F. Tl - -30F. K * .365 from attached conductivity nomograph (Fig. 2) Solving for X we have:
X = (T2 - Tl) 00
q x = (80 - (-30)) (.365)

the same calculations would hold true for vessels 3 ft. or more in diameter. If exact calculations are desired so that vessel diameter is considered, then X2 log e r2_ can be substituted for X to find equiavlent thickness. ( r^ =

radius of vessel and r2 = radius to outside surface of insulation). Graphs and charts showing equivalent thicknesses for pipe up to 24" diameter, where equivalent thickness is important, can be obtained from Pittsburg Corning,

D. Finish
1. After specified thickness of equipment insulation has been installed, an approved coating shall be sprayed, brushed, or troweled on to a minimum thickness. While coat is still tacky, an open weave (10 x 10 mesh) glass membrane shall be laid smooth and thoroughly em bedded in coating. Care must be exercised that weave does not rupture and that cloth is overlapped approximately three inches (3") to provide strength at joint equal to that maintained elsewhere.
2. Before surface becomes dry to the touch, a second coating shall be sprayed, brushed, or troweled over the reinforcing cloth to a uniform thickness not less than 1/8 inch thick, with a smooth, unbroken sur face and allowed to dry.
3. Application of coating shall be built up in a uniform manner to pre vent uneven contraction and tendency toward surface cracks. When spraying, care should be taken that air is directed at sufficient pressure to obtain maximum atomization without pock-marking of surface owing to excessive velocity. Slugs shall be removed from surface immediately.
Da. Finish (Alternate Application Method)
An open weave 10x10 mesh glass membrane may be spot tacked to the insulation and the finish coating applied through membrane as a single application. Coating should be applied in accordance with manufac turer's recommendations.
E. Flashing
On equipment located outdoors, it is imperative that proper flashing materials and methods be used at nozzles, manholes and other projec tions, as well as at the junction of horizontal and vertical installations.
F. Painting
When asphaltic materials are specified for the weathercoat and paint is desired, it may be done as follows (usually by separate contract):
1. As soon as asphalt surface has dried, the surface shall be painted with an asphalt base aluminum paint.
2. If aluminum finish is not desired, the asphalt surface shall be sealed with asphalt sealer and painted to desired color.

A. Thickness
All piping shall be insulated with the proper thickness of FOAMGLAS insulation as shown in Table I. Insulation thickness shall be determined by lowest temperature at which the piping normally operates.
B. Application
1. Where single layer "Factory-wrapped" insulation is used, application shall be made as received, with joints tightly butted and sufficiently buttered with specified joint sealer. Wrapping laps shall be brushed with asphalt cut back and pressed firmly in place.
2. Where single layer "Regular" insulation is used, the FOAMGLAS insulation will be applied to piping with butt joints staggered and all joints tightly butted and buttered with joint sealer. A finish shall then be applied in similar manner as called for under "Equipment" in these specifications.
3. On multiple-layer insulation, where specified, the additional layer or layers shall be applied with side and end joints staggered over joints of preceding layer.
4. Only outer layer joints of multiple-layer applications shall be buttered with specified joint sealer before installation. The joints shall be drawn together when FOAMGLAS insulation is applied so that only a very thin vapor seal separates the section of insulation.
5. FOAMGLAS insulation shall be applied with all joints fitted to elimi nate voids. Large voids shall not be filled with vapor seal coating, but eliminated by refitting or replacing insulation.
6. Where piping is subject to excessive vibration, the bore of the inner layer shall be coated with a thin application (to fill surface cells only) of specified bore coating, and allowed to dry before application of insulation to piping.
7. Single and outermost layers of pipe insulation shall be secured in place with stainless steel insulation strap on 9" centers.
8. After specified thickness of insulation has been installed, a finish shall be applied as called for under "Equipment" in these specifications.
9. Contraction joints shall be installed in both horizontal and vertical straight run piping when piping will be subjected to temperatures which dictate the neces sity of such joints. Chart at right may be used as a guide for determining number of joints required.
a. Joints shall be loosely filled with cushioning material.
b. When contraction joints are re quired, contraction should be pro vided by and in the flange cover of flanged joints when they occur in the line.

III* Protective Coating for crystallizers and acetylizers insulation.
1. Material requirements - See 3.M., Page 8.
2. Application procedure (both vessels).
a. Insul-Mastic (Gilsonite) Trowell on directly over smooth Foamglas approximately 1/16" to 1/8" thick and thick as required to fill in holes, cracks, and cover metal bards. Allc to dry thoroughly. Hot air, infra-red lights, etc., will reduce drying time.
b. Carboline Hardtop #3 Mix according to instructions (reduce amount of water if sand is wet) and trowel on top of vessel. Thickness should vary from about 1/2" in center cf vessel to l/8" at outer perimeter. This will provide a slight slope which will drain off water or acid spilled on top. Pea gravel can be used as an aggragate to fill and strenghten mix. Allow to dry at least 8 hours.
c. Carboline 12200-21 Mastic Mix equal parts of Component A and Component B to make one part (|- qt. A and \ qt. B - 1 qt. mixture), 3 to parts special silica sand, and 1/2 to 1 part ground asbestos. It is extremely important that Components A and 3 be mixed properly. Due to the fast set-up time and unless more than two men are working, not more than 1 qt. of each component plus 8 parts of sand and asbes tos should be mixed at a time. Mixing can beat be done using a slow speed 1, drill motor and 1/2" rod about 3 ft. long with blades welded on the end. Two men applying and a third mixing gives most efficient procedure.
This material is not easy to apply and some experience is required to do a smooth, good-looking job. Upward strokes should be used on vertical surfaces and minimum number of strokes should be used as the material will tend to sti to the trowel, A good, heavy pressure on the trowel on each strode will mini mize thi3 sticking and provide a smoother finish. Tools can be kept clean sr. moist with special trowelling solvent or MEK. The trowelling solvent is used with a brush and trowel to provide the final smooth slick finish. Allow to dry 12 to 2k hours.
d. Carboline X1301-2 (Gray 72li) Polyurethane build coat Wipe down surface of mastic coat with Sclox (denatured alcohol) and brusn cr.e coat X1301-2 build coat. This helps to seal pores of mastic and provides a still smoother surface for the final coat. (This step is more for appearance and can be eliminated if desired.)
e. Carboline X1301-66 Polyurethane (any color) finish coat This coat should be applied 8 to U8 hours after build coat. If more than four days elapse, surface of build coat should be washed down with Solcx before applying final coat.
