Armacell, a world leader in
flexible foam insulation, offers its piping system for solar systems with new
quality characteristics. Armaflex DuoSolar
is now supplied with a new high-temperature insulation material which has a
microcell structure, reveals the companys press release.
 The new
foam is not only more dimensionally stable and easier to handle, it also has
improved technical properties. Armaflex DuoSolar is
more energy efficient than its predecessor due to a new thermal conductivity of
0°C = 0.038 [W/m∙K], which reduces the heat losses
during transport from the solar panel to the hot-water storage tank
effectively.
The structured foil covering, which is also new, is much more tear-proof and
runs through wall penetrations, ducts and suspended ceilings more smoothly. |
