HT1100A-MTFM (HT593C-A-MTFM)
INTRODUCTION
Shannon design HT1100A-MTFM is specific to a Petro Chemical Process High Temperature Environment, a non-wicking Design. Conditions are severe and problematic but most important, this design is non-porous at high temperature, producing a self-contained insulation system that is still removable and re-usable. Conditions of hot oil, hydrocarbon, chemical and most acidic and basic environments while at the same time, generating acoustic performance targets to meet the standard.
Shannon Acoustic Blanket Applications include: Steam Turbines, Gas Turbines, Exhaust Ducting, Exhaust Piping, Diffusers, Process Pumps, Turbines, Vessels, Heat Exchangers, Process Piping, Flanges, Fittings, Equipment & Equipment Heads.
This design is a Thermal/Acoustic Noise Reduction Barrier with a service temperature to 1100˚F (593˚C).
Acoustic Performance
4 – 15 dBA Reduction Overall
Finished Surface Mass
1.7lb/ft² (8.3kg/m²) to 3.7lb/ft² (18.1kg/m²)
Blanket Components
The Outer Jacketing consists of a layer of Stainless Steel Type 304 Knitted Wire Mesh .011” Dia. @ 16ft²/LB (0.28 mm Dia. @ 3.3 m²/kg) and a layer an Outer Jacketing of 16.5oz/yd² (560g/m²) PTFE Teflon® Impregnated Fiberglass Cloth and Mass Loaded Vinyl “Reflector” – 1.0lb/ft² (4.9kg/m²)-2.0lb/ft² (9.8kg/m²). The inner jacketing consists of a layer of Stainless Steel Type 304 Sheet Foil .002” (.05mm) thickness and a layer of Stainless Steel Knitted Wire Mesh. The Insulation Core Material is an 11 lb/ft³ (176.2 kg/m³) Fiberglass Needled Mat-Type E Fiber and will act as an “Absorber” of noise energy. The Fiberglass Mat is encapsulated by the inner and outer layers of jacketing, then stapled together, producing a Self Contained Blanket System. The Blanket System includes an Integral Fastener for install & removal. The combination of reflection and absorption will generate given expectations of noise reduction with varying surface mass and varying blanket thickness.

* The above referenced Cold Face Surface Temperatures should be used as guidelines for blanket insulation thickness design.
* The Cold Face Surface Temperature of the blanket should approach surrounding ambient temperature conditions.
* The economic thickness of the blanket should consider blanket cost, thermal performance and blanket design constraints.
* Heat loss calculations are based on a 21.1˚ C (70˚ F) ambient temperature using a flat surface condition.
