USES AND CHARACTERISTICS
1 – fittings without insulation
2 – fittings with insulation
3 – fittings with insulation and SIA installation
QUALITY INSULATION = ENERGY SAVINGS = REDUCTION IN CO2 = CARE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
SIA products are used primarily for applications with health protection requirements for operators – against burns and to reduce thermal losses leading to a reduction in energy costs of individual devices, such as pipelines, fittings in boiler rooms and other kinds of equipment.
Types of SIA insulation
Removable insulation SIA for fittings is supplied in two different types (SIA H and SIA P) from standard dimensions all the way to atypical dimensions produced to order.
-
-
- SIA H – for a maximum medium temperature of 150 °C – thickness of insulation 40 mm.
- SIA P – for a maximum medium temperature of 250 °C – thickness of insulation 60 mm.
-
The SIA standard product range is produced according to standardised named brightness levels for a rated pressure of PN16 in individual fittings. For non-standard types of fittings and devices a proposal is prepared according to the client’s design specifications or based on in-place measurements with subsequent price calculation. You can also fill in a non-binding inquiry asking for a price calculation.
SIA removable insulation is comprised of three functional layers:
- Heat resistant fabric on the internal surface, which is in contact with the insulated equipment.
- The insulation used is a mineral slat with aluminium foil in different thicknesses.
- Heat resistant external fabric finish.
Standard SIA are designed for indoor installations (boiler rooms, heat exchanger stations, production halls…), the outer fabric is coated with polyurethane. For more demanding applications with washability requirements, the standard outer fabric can be replaced with a silicone coated fabric. For the most demanding applications, the Teflon coated fabric is suitable, e.g. process plants in the food industry, oil farms, rubber industry, etc. For installations in outdoor environments, silicone coated or Teflon coated fabrics can be used.
SIA insulation systems are suitable for industrial piping, HVAC units and energy systems. They provide thermal protection, user safety and long-term durability.

SIA INSTALATION PROCESS – HORIZONTAL FITTING
SIA installation must only be carried out on valves out of service to prevent burns
insulated section
completed pipe insulation before and after the valve, including surface treatment (e.g. cladding)
SIA insulation stretched under the fitting with white fabric to the insulated surface so that the fabrics are on the sides
pulling the back of the SIA towards you partial connection of the front section with Velcro fasteners to the rear section with flaps
partial connection of the front part with Velcro fasteners to the back part with flaps
pulling both ends of the SIA together and fixing the Velcro flaps
tightening and fastening the Velcro flaps and tying the laces
SIA INSTALATION PROCESS – VERTICAL FITTING
SIA installation must only be carried out on valves out of service to prevent burns
INSULATED SECTION
COMPLETED PIPE INSTULATION BEFORE AND AFTER THE VALVE, INCLUDING SURFACE TREATMENT (E.G. CLADDING)
STRETCHING THE SIA INSULATION UNDER THE FITTING WITH WHITE FABRIC TO THE INSULATED SURFACE SO THAT TH FABRICS ARE AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM, WITH VELCRO FLAPS ON THE LEFT
PULLING THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SIA WITH TE FLAPS TOWARDS THE LEFT TO THE RIGHT
PARTIAL CONNECTION OF THE LEFT PART WITH FLAPS TO THE RIGHT PART WITH VELCRO FLAPS FASTENERS
PULLING BOTH ENDS OF THE SIA TOGETHER AND FIXING THE VELCRO FLAPS
TIGHTENING AND FASTENING TH VELCRO FLAPS AND TYING THE LACES
