This webinar covers design considerations to help ensure an industrial insulation system is designed to satisfy system requirements while providing long-lasting performance.

Kevin Herreman, principal acoustic scientist at Owens Corning, discusses the problems posed by industrial noise and shares some research on models to more accurately predict insertion loss in the latest installment of the Blueprint.

While efficiency is sometimes thought of in terms of massive projects and initiatives, micro- improvements, like the choice of insulating material used on pipes, can have a significant impact on the bottom line.

A special concern from a life safety perspective is that plenums are home to combustible materials as well as various pipes, cables, and wires that may yield toxic fumes and smoke.

The location of the chilled water system — both in terms of geography and physical placement — influences the design specifics needed to properly insulate or protect it.
