3-7. Insulating the Refrigerant Tubing
Tubing Insulation
● Standard selection of insulation material
Under the environment of the high temperature and
high humidity, the surface of the insulation material
is easy to become condensation. This will result in
leakage and dew drop. Refer to the chart shown below
when selecting the insulation material. In case that
the ambient temperature and relative humidity are
placed above the line of the insulation thickness, the
condensation may occasionally make a dew drop on
the surface of the insulation material. In this case,
select the better insulation efficiency.
* However, since the condition will be different
due to the sort of the insulation material and the
environmental condition of the installation place, see
the chart shown below as a reference when making
a selection.
