Proper Selection and Design of Insulation Systems

Presentation Summary:
Below ambient systems cover a wide range of applications and require special consideration vs hot systems.  Insulation selection to prevent condensation requires a review of many factors other than those just found on a data sheet. Environmental and application parameters must be considered as well as the end customers expectations.   Various applications from chilled water, refrigeration to cryogenic and duct applications will be explored.  Outdoor applications require additional criteria.  Several new products  /options which have come on the market recently to improve the cost / performance of these type of systems will be discussed.
