EXCHANGERS
2.1
Those heat exchangers on hot service shall be insulated. This does not apply to those
operating at or near ambient temperatures.
2.2
The area to be insulated shall include the exchanger flanges, channel and cover. These
covers shall be watertight and removable without damage to adjacent shell insulation.
2.3
Figures in table are process temperatures in degrees Celsius and are minimum
temperatures for use with thickness and design conditions stated.
When design
temperature falls between two (2) thickness columns, use the greater thickness.

7.1
Piping
Molded sectional insulation shall be applied in broken joint construction and secured with
16 ga. wire loops spaced on 230 mm (9.0) centers. On double layer construction, lap all
joints one-half (1/2) of each section between layers. Each layer shall be wired separately.
Joints shall be securely butted and all cracks, voids, etc., shall be filled with insulating
cement and pointed.
Insulation shall be jacketed with aluminum sheet complete with vapour barrier, rolled and
cut to fit curvature of insulation. A minimum lap of 50 mm (2.0) on longitudinal and end
joints shall be provided. The jacket shall be secured with screws on 150 mm (6.0)
centers.
7.2
Fittings
Where practical, on welded fittings mitered segments of adjacent pipe covering shall be cut
to fit, and secured with 16 ga. wire loops with a minimum of two (2) wires per section.
On the screwed fittings, the space shall be built with insulating cement up to the thickness
of adjacent pipe covering.
The above shall then be covered with preformed aluminum jacketing, complete with vapour
barrier.
7.3
7.4
Terminal Bevels
All pipe covering shall be beveled back on an approximate 45 angle and covered with
preformed aluminum jacketing, complete with vapour barrier.
7.5
Steam Tracing
Lines that are steam traced shall be insulated with large O.D. pipe insulation covering line
and tracer and finished in the same manner as straight pipe.

Shells
To the bare, clean surface of the vessel, block insulation shall be cut to fit vessel shell and
between insulation rings, secured with 19 mm (3/4) banks, machine stretched, and
fastened on approximately 230 mm (9.0) centers. All cracks or voids shall be pointed with
insulation cement.
Over the block insulation, corrugated aluminum jacketing (complete with vapour barrier)
shall be applied by the S clip methods. Each course of jacketing shall be secured as per
Clause 2.6, of Section A with a lapping of at least two (2) corrugations on vertical seams
and secured with sheet metal screws on approximately 150 mm (6.0) centers.
7.6.1.2
Heads
Block insulation shall be applied in the same manner as Shells, and secured with banks on
approximately 150 mm (6.0) centers. The top and bottom shall be covered with flat
aluminum jacketing, complete with vapour barrier.
