Regarding the external insulation of mechanical pumps?
Thread Content
The question is as stated in the title: Regarding the external insulation of pumps, it specifically refers to the pump impeller cover. Question: What are the basic principles that should be followed for insulating mechanical pumps? Are there any relevant standards? Are there any regional differences as well? After all, the average annual temperature in the three eastern provinces is likely to be very different from that in Guangdong and Guangxi, so it can’t be generalized.
Even though it is a standard, in reality it comes from experience.
Generally, it involves insulation for pipelines and turbines; I’ve never seen insulation used for ordinary pumps
The pump bodies of our hot oil pumps are insulated, using sepiolite for insulation. I don’t know either what standards were followed in doing it
Drawing on the Nansen insulation system – it can’t go wrong; if it works well, don’t forget to like it
Pump insulation generally includes insulation of the cast casing, electrical insulation, and insulation layers; the appropriate method should be chosen based on actual conditions and requirements
Insulation is incorporated in the pump design – steam insulation and electric heating, with professional electric heating tapes wrapped around it
