Gas Turbine exhaust plenum insulation system.

•  Multi layer “high tech” design

•  Reduced thickness from 100mm to 20mm

•  Non-absorbent surface; repelling oil and fuel

•  Minimized fiber pollution during handling of

   aging insulation components.

•  Increased lifetime

•  Easy to mount and maintain.

•  Sections of the system can be removed

   without distortions of the remaining

   components.

HSE Issue.
GT-enclosure fire exposal, and human exposure to fiber dust concerning aging traditional insulation

There are definitive HSE issues with aging insulation typically based upon conventional glass fiber cloth wrapping containing mineral wool insulation.

-After a short period, the binding in the mineral wool will burn out, and the fiber wrapping will be brittle.
-This causes the insulation to crack open when handled; thereby releasing large amounts of fiber particles to the surroundings.

-This type of insulation is very absorbent to oil and fuel, and represents a potential fire source which is very difficult to extinguish in case of fire. When oil absorbs in the wool, the ignition point of the oil is substantially lowered due to a much larger surface
