Silencers Firwin makes blankets for silencers and purifiers of
all sizes. Depending on safety requirements these blankets can
be up to 4" thick.
All of our blankets can be manufactured to allow for hangers/brackets/supports,
and side or end inlet/outlet piping.
Firwin insulation blankets contain up to 80% of heat loss. And
they maintain the temperature until the engine is switched off.
Purifiers, Catalysts, and SCRs
The increased legal requirement of exhaust pollution containment
has made the quickest possible effective burn off very important
when using Catalytic Purifiers, Scrubbers, and SCR’s.
Effective heat containment speeds up the time for the Catalyst
to reach the minimum effective temperature for effective pollutant
burn off. (For more information on Diesel Emissions Standards and the role of insulation, see our Newsletter article).
Insulation blankets on Purifiers and Catalytic converters contain
heat flow from the housing which:
• Brings the
catalyst up to its effective operating temperature much faster,
• Ensures that the catalyst is kept at the highest operating
temperature possible given the exhaust flow temperatures of
the exhaust system, • Gives personnel protection against
burns for technicians working on an operating piece of equipment.
