Flanges are connectors used to connect pipe sections and various pipe components. Examples include butterfly valves, valves, filters, deaerators, pumps and measuring equipment. These connectors are usually kept clear for maintenance work or repairs and to keep it possible to detect leaks. As a result, they are often not insulated, leading to heat loss. The same applies to expansion joints, pipe components used as flexible pipe sections to absorb movements and vibrations in the pipe. By insulating both flanges and expansion joints, significant energy savings can be achieved.
Temket universal insulation mattresses are an excellent solution to ensure energy efficiency and minimise heat loss. The product line consists of a range of universal mattresses that allow you to self-insulate common fittings, pumps, flanges, expansion joints and pipe sections. Our insulation mattresses guarantee high-quality, long-term protection and can be installed quickly and safely.
A versatile solution for various insulation needs
Our insulation mattresses are designed to meet the specific requirements of flanges and expansion joints, making them ideal for a wide range of applications in utility buildings. The insulation mattresses are available for flanges and expansion joints of different sizes. This makes them flexible and suitable for various projects.
Our insulation mattresses are made of high-quality, heat-resistant materials that can withstand temperatures of up to 150°C, giving them a long service life. This allows them to be used successfully to minimise heat loss and save energy.
Two sizes of insulation mattresses for flanges
For flanges and expansion joints, you can order universal mattresses in two sizes. Insulation mattress for flange medium (D1) is suitable for flanges up to DN100. Insulation mattresses for flanges large (D2) are suitable for flanges up to DN200. You can find the maximum sizes of flanges compatible with our insulation mattresses on the product pages. For expansion joints, you should take extra account of the maximum length to be insulated. Also, always consider the type of expansion joint as vibrations shorten the service life of an insulation mattress.
Insulate it yourself
Thanks to the universal dimensions of insulation mattresses, measuring in advance is not necessary. This saves both costs and time, as you do not need to make an appointment and can do the insulation of the flanges at your convenience.
You can easily install Temket’s universal insulation mattresses yourself. On our website, you will find detailed instructions and installation videos. Using photos, we can also offer support remotely. The convenient Velcro closure ensures that the insulation mattresses are easy to install, remove and reuse, keeping the flanges and expansion joints accessible for inspections and maintenance.
