Kaiflex Solar EPDMplus 2in2 is a specific type of solar pipe insulation from Kaimann's Kaiflex EPDMplus series. It is designed specifically for use in solar applications, where high temperature resistance and UV radiation protection are critical.
Product Features and Specifications:
- Material: EPDM rubber, a type known for its durability and resistance to degradation under various environmental conditions.
- Structure: Closed-cell, which makes it highly effective at preventing condensation and protecting against pipe corrosion.
- Temperature Resistance: Suitable for use at temperatures up to 150°C, making it ideal for the high operating temperatures often found in solar applications.
- UV Resistance: The material is inherently resistant to UV radiation, which is essential for outdoor applications and especially valuable in solar installations.
- Moisture Resistance: Its closed-cell structure includes an in-built water vapor barrier, enhancing its ability to resist moisture ingress.
- Fire Reaction: Classified as self-extinguishing according to EuroClass, adding a layer of safety in case of fire.
- Health and Environmental Considerations: The product is ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and GWP (Global Warming Potential) zero, indicating no significant impact on the ozone layer or climate change. It's also free from harmful substances like cadmium and formaldehyde.
This insulation is ideal for high-temperature solar applications, including the insulation of pipes in solar hot water systems, ensuring efficient operation by reducing thermal loss and protecting the system components from environmental factors.
