Super insulated Pipelines
'FALCON - ANACONDA'
Super Insulated Vacuum Jacketed Piping System
Description
Shell-N-Tube make FALCON series Rigid & ANACONDA series Flexible Super Insulated, Vacuum Jacketed pipelines & hoses are extensively used to transfer volatile, temperature sensitive fluids from point of storage to point of use without appreciable product temperature loss as prevalent in conventional non vacuum insulated piping, due to ambient heat leak.
Lowest Life Cycle Cost
The initial cost of a vacuum jacketed super insulated cryogenic product transfer system piping is often considered a major drawback while deciding in its favor when compared to cheaper insulation options. However, cheaper and much less thermal effective Foam / slag wool insulation in the long run proves to be much more expensive by way of expensive product loss and degradation of process efficiency over the lifecycle of the piping system.
Shell-N-Tube manufactures complete range of vacuum jacketed super insulated piping systems to meet your specific process needs. Shell-N-Tube manufactures both rigid (FALCON) and flexible (ANACONDA) vacuum jacketed pipes in size ranges from ½ inch to 3 inch for flexible and ½ inch to 8 inch for rigid systems. Hybrid pipeline systems incorporating both rigid and pipeline sections are routinely designed and implemented to meet specific process and site limitations.
Application
Cryogenic product transfer – liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon, hydrogen, helium.- Hot & Chilled water piping
- Steam piping
- Hot and cold process chemicals
- CO2 Piping
- Ammonia
- Any other temperature sensitive liquid/gases.
Beneficiary Industry
- Liquid oxygen, nitrogen, argon from ASU to tank.
- Cryogenic liquid transfer from mother storage tank to transport tank; to customer tank; to pump.
