Describe the purpose and function of insulation. Individual answers: Insulation reduces the energy consumption of industrial plants. Pipes are coated with insulation materials, which are poor heat conductors. Heat flow and heat loss can be reduced. A reduction of heat loss also leads to a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. Complete the following text: Mineral wool  is used on all types of pipe work, particularly industrial pipe work operating at higher temperatures. The  metal cladding  is made of 0.6 mm thick aluminium sheet. It protects the  insulation  from weather and mechanical damage.  Flexible elastomeric foam  is widely used on refrigeration and aircondition­ ing pipe work. It is also used on heating and hotwater systems. Insulation materials are poor  heat conductors  . Name three different types of materials used for pipe insulation. 1. mineral wool 2. flexible elastomeric foam 3. sheet metal What are the following components for? screws: Screws are used to secure the longitudinal seam. swages: Swages connect segments of the sheet metal cladding. metal cladding: It protects the insulation from weather and mechanical damage. 12 B1 13 A2 14 A2 15 A2–B1 What I can now do: ●● I can describe the purpose and function of insulation.  ➤ 12 Ich kann die Aufgabe und Funktion von Isolierungen beschreiben. ●● I can apply the words necessary to describe insulation materials and their function.  ➤ 13 Ich kann Vokabel anwenden die notwendig sind, um Isoliermaterialien und deren Funktionen zu beschreiben.. ●● I can name three different types of insulation materials.  ➤ 14 Ich kann drei verschiedene Typen von Isoliermaterialien nennen. ●● I can describe the function of insulation components.  ➤ 15 Ich kann die Funktion von Bauteilen bei Isolierungen beschreiben. 29 Insulation work Check yourself 127 Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
