Description
A PRE-INSULATED PIPELINE ASSEMBLY
TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] The present disclosure generally relates to the field of pipeline accessories. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a pre-insulated pipeline assembly comprising of two opposed pre-insulated tail pieces along with a pipeline valve/strainer positioned in between them.
BACKGROUND
[002] Thermal insulation of pipelines and their accessories such as valves and strainers are done to minimise heat flow and heat exchange between the pipeline and its ambient atmosphere. Such insulation would prevent corrosion of pipelines, valves and strainers due to condensation, avoid injuries to personnel if the pipelines have extreme temperatures and save energy.
[003] Manual and onsite insulation costs of the valves and strainers are high mainly because of the labour involved. Insulation of valves and strainers are problematic because of their uneven surfaces, leading to lot of air gaps during the manual onsite insulation. Also, the workmanship tends to vary rendering the insulation process inefficient. This leads to corrosion and damage of the valves and strainers which ultimately gets translated into increased capital investment and maintenance cost.
[004] In the light of aforementioned discussion, there exists a need for pre-insulated pipeline accessories, especially of valves and strainers.
[005] The patent document PCT/IB 2013/051347 discloses pre-insulated valves and strainers that overcomes the above mentioned disadvantages of manual and onsite insulation. But fitting a valve or strainer directly into the main pipeline is tedious and the insulation might be damaged during the process of installation. The present invention disclosed herein overcomes the above mentioned disadvantage by disclosing a pre-insulated pipeline assembly comprising of two opposed pre-insulated tail pieces with a pipeline valve/strainer positioned in between them that is easier to install in the main pipeline without any damage to insulation in the valve/strainer.
[006] The pre-insulated valves and strainers disclosed in the patent document PCT/IB 2013/051347 are also disadvantageous economically since an overlapping insulation should be carried out manually onsite to cover the uninsulated side flanges once the pre-insulated valves or strainers are fixed. The
manual onsite insulation is difficult because of the uneven structure of the flanges and generally covers only the outer surface of the flanges. Efforts to completely insulate the flanges by overlapping insulation tends to be inefficient leading to lots of airgaps and subsequent corrosion. This problem is overcome by the invention disclosed in the present document, wherein the pre-insulated pipeline assembly includes pre-insulated valves/strainers, pre-insulated tail pieces along with side flanges, wherein the flanges are pre-insulated both on the outer and inner surface thus preventing the need for overlapping insulation.
[007] Also, the actuator in the pre-insulated valve and the cover member in the pre-insulated Y- strainer disclosed in the above identified PCT patent document are not insulated since any insulation provided to the actuator or the cover member will be subjected to wear and tear rendering the insulation inefficient. Hence, there is a probability of heat transfer through the actuator of the valve and the cover member of the Y-strainer. The pipeline assembly disclosed herein has pre-insulated valves and strainers with supplementary insulation that overcomes the above mentioned disadvantage thus rendering the insulation of the pipelines more efficient.
