This highly efficient and reliable pre-insulated piping system is used
extensively in both buried and above-ground piping applications requiring
reliable fail-safe freeze protection. It is widely used for bridge crossings,
in permafrost regions or locations where conventional deep buried systems
are not practical. This includes regions of high water table, permafrost
and rock. The SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated piping system consists of high density polyethylene SCLAIRPIPE core with factory applied polyurethane foam, electric heat trace cable, and various protective outer jackets depending on the application. The package includes a variety of associated fittings and water-tight pre-formed insulated cover kits to provide a total pre-insulated packaged system. SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated pipe system is lightweight and flexible, allowing for easy handling and installation with local forces and without large, heavy construction equipment. Specifically designed to be leak-proof under extreme conditions, the SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated piping system is not damaged by fluid freeze-up. The highly efficient thermal insulation (available in various thicknesses) not only slows heat loss from the fluid to prevent freezing, but also protects the thermal stability of the surrounding environment. In the event of freeze-up, the heat trace systems can be used to thaw the pipe efficiently and safely. The SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated piping system has years of research and experience behind it. The system's components compliment one another while maintaining a cost effective alternative to conventional deep buried systems. Each component has proven its reliability in the field with thousands of miles of pipe installed since the early 1970's. The SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated piping system also means design assistance through the use of computer heat loss programs. From Alert in the Northwest Territories to the arid areas of North Africa, SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated piping systems have repeatedly proven their cost effectiveness and reliability. SCLAIRPIPE pre-insulated pipe package uses polyurethane insulation supplied and applied by Urecon Canada Limited (www.urecon.com). Outer jackets available: |
