THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY | Lowest Thermal Conductivity 0.024 But/hr leading to Negligible Heat Loss | Very high Thermal Conductivity Very high Thermal Conductivity .06 Btu/hr causes 900 times higher Heat Loss | FRICTION LOSS RELATED TO RA VALUE | Least RA Value i.e. 0.1 Micron prevent Friction Loss in the pipeline having very smooth inner surface | 1.3 Micron RA Value leads to very high Friction Loss and more energy consumption owing to very rough inner surface | INSULATION | Sandwich Glass Fiber Reinforcement layer increases the temperature withstand capacity; in turn requires lesser insulation to prevent sweating | Owing to very high heat loss, needs very thick insulation to prevent heat sweating and heat loss | MAINTENANCE | Non Corrosive and Glass Fiber Reinforcement Piping Technology leads to NIL Maintenance | Insulation and Solid particles generated from corrosion move in the pipeline along with fluid which affect the pipeline and causes heavy maintenance | AESTHETIC PIPING VIEW | Owing to Sandwich Glass Fiber Reinforcement layer, very less sagging gives nice and Aesthetic View to the pipeline | Having FRP Coating, disordering and messy view of the pipeline |
