EN ISO 17862:2018 is a technical standard that provides guidelines for the evaluation and determination of cryogenic insulation materials. This standard is widely used in industries that require cryogenic applications, such as aerospace, energy, and healthcare.
The Importance of Cryogenic Insulation
Cryogenic insulation plays a crucial role in maintaining low temperatures in various applications. It helps to minimize heat transfer and prevent the loss of valuable resources such as liquefied natural gas or medical gases. Proper insulation also ensures the safety of personnel and equipment by reducing the risk of thermal shock.
The Key Parameters of EN ISO 17862:2018
EN ISO 17862:2018 outlines several important parameters for evaluating cryogenic insulation materials. These include compressive properties, thermal conductivity, flammability, water vapor transmission rate, and mechanical properties. Each parameter is carefully tested and analyzed to ensure the suitability and performance of the insulation material in severe cryogenic conditions.
The Benefits of Complying with EN ISO 17862:2018
Complying with EN ISO 17862:2018 offers numerous benefits for both manufacturers and end-users. Firstly, it provides a standardized and reliable method for assessing the quality and performance of cryogenic insulation materials. This enables manufacturers to produce high-quality products that meet industry requirements. Additionally, end-users can have confidence in the performance and durability of the insulation materials they choose.
