Ceramic Fiber Insulation Modules for High Temperature Applications

Jun 6, 2023

Ceramic fiber insulation modules are prefabricated insulation panels made of high temperature ceramic fibers used for industrial insulation applications. They are also known as ceramic fire modules. These modules offer several benefits compared to traditional insulation materials:

1. Ceramic fiber insulation modules possess several advantageous properties, including high temperature resistance. They can endure continuous operating temperatures up to 1,200°C and intermittent temperatures up to 1,400°C, and are resistant to heat, fire, and flames.
2. Additionally, they exhibit low thermal conductivity, with a value of around 0.09 W/mK, which means they offer excellent heat insulation even at high temperatures. Moreover, ceramic fiber modules tend to be lightweight, with densities ranging from 96 to 160 kg/m3, making them easy to lift, transport, and install.
3. They also have minimal moisture absorption and remain dimensionally stable when wet. Furthermore, they produce lower amounts of smoke and toxic fumes in the event of a fire compared to traditional insulation materials.
4. Lastly, ceramic fiber modules are available in various custom sizes and shapes, and can be easily cut, formed, and installed to 1260C ceramic fiber modulesfit different components and equipment.

 

Ceramic Fiber Insulation Modules Find Applications As High Temperature Insulation For:

• Boilers, kilns and ovens
• Pipes, valves, flanges and ducts
• Furnaces, heating elements and reactors
• Incinerators and waste combustors

The rigid and stable design of ceramic fiber modules makes them suitable for lining the inside or wrapping the outside of high temperature equipment and components in industries such as power generation, steel, cement, glass and ceramics.

Overview About Ceramic Fiber Insulation Modules

Ceramic fiber insulation modules offer significantly higher temperature resistance, safer performance and better insulation value compared to traditional insulation materials. Their light weight, ease of fabrication and installation also make them a preferred insulation solution for various high temperature industrial applications.
