The Insulon High Pressure Insulated Hoses are vacuum jacketed hoses for gas or liquid transfer. These hoses utilize a proprietary insulation technology suitable for both cryogenic and high temperatures. 

Applications

• Aerospace,
• Automotive,
• Cable & Wire Harnesses,
• Chemical Processing,
• Cleanroom Manufacturing,
• Cryogenic Fluid Transfer,

• Cryotherapy Devices,
• Food-Grade Applications,
• Fuel & Oil Lines.

Features

• Cleanroom-compatible materials (316L stainless steel),
• Compatible with cryogenic fluids including hydrogen, LN2, many others,
• Durable, reliable construction,
• Easy to install, clean and sterilize,
• Improve thermal energy efficiency,
• Low spring back reduces stress on connections and joints,
• Maintain safer external surface temperature,
• Minimize heat loss and conserve thermal energy,
• Naturally flame-retardant materials,
• Non-fibrous materials,
• Reduce condensation, dripping, and risk of mold,
• Reduce cryogenic material losses due to boil-off,
• Reduce risk of corrosion-under-insulation (CUI).

Specifications

• Thermal Range:  -270°C to 900°C (-454°F to 1652°F),
• Jacket material:  316L Stainless Steel,

• Tube Stub
• Stainless steel

• Pressure tests are conducted at 1.5x MAWP according to NAHAD Corrugated Metal Hose Assembly Specification Guidelines, p. 33 (2005).

• Insulation “touch temperature” performance for 6ft Length Hose:

• Cryogenic Performance:  For LN2 (at -196°C) the hose jacket temperature was over 9°C, for temperature difference (∆T) of >205°C (369°F) warmer.  

 

• High Temperature Performance:  For hot air (at 900°C (1652°F) the hose jacket temperature maintained under 260°C (482°F), for temperature difference (∆T) of >205°C (369°F) cooler.  

• This chart illustrates the difference between the media temperature (hot air) and the outer surface temperature (aka “touch temperature”). When the process media was 900°C (1652°F), the temperature difference was over 640°C (1150°F) at steady state.

• Insulation Reliability with Thermal Cycling: 

• >20,000 cycles at 450°C without drop in insulation performance.
• Cycle was defined as a 3-minute ramp up during which the component reaches steady-state, followed by a 2-minute cool-down period. Ambient temperature was 23°C.
