Control Valve Jacket Insulation: Optimising Thermal Efficiency Across the UK

Introduction to Control Valve Jacket Insulation

Control valve jacket insulation plays a critical role in improving energy efficiency, reducing heat loss, and providing safety in industrial, commercial, and residential systems across the UK. Designed to fit around common valve types like 3-way valves, ball valves, and gate valves, these insulation jackets are designed to deliver superior thermal performance while ensuring easy access for maintenance.

What is Control Valve Jacket Insulation?

Control valve jacket insulation consists of removable insulation jackets made from durable materials like silicone coated glass fibre cloth and fibreglass cloth. These jackets are custom-made to fit specific valve shapes and sizes, providing an airtight insulation barrier that prevents heat loss and maintains system efficiency. The infill of 50mm of mineral wool insulation enhances thermal retention, making them ideal for extreme temperature environments.

Key Features and Benefits

• Energy Efficiency: Reduces heat loss, leading to lower energy consumption and cost savings.

• Removable Design: Designed to be easily removable, allowing quick access for inspections and maintenance.

• Enhanced Safety: Prevents direct contact with the hot surface of valves, creating a safer working environment.

• Durable Materials: Crafted from high-quality glass fibre cloth and silicone coated glass for long-term durability.

• Custom Fit: Jackets are custom-made to fit all valve types, ensuring optimal insulation coverage.

Construction and Materials

• Outer Layer: Made from silicone coated glass fibre cloth, offering excellent resistance to moisture, chemicals, and UV exposure.

• Insulation Layer: Filled with 50mm insulation of high-density mineral wool to provide outstanding thermal insulation.

• Fastening System: Equipped with velcro straps and pull cords for secure, adjustable fitting.

• Sewn Seams: The cloth is sewn around the insulation to enhance durability and maintain shape.
