General Information
Overview
SIST EN 15600-2:2010 is a European Standard developed by CEN that specifies the requirements for in-situ thermal insulation formed from exfoliated vermiculite (EV) products used in building equipment and industrial installations. This standard applies to installed thermal insulation products capable of operating effectively within a temperature range of approximately –40 ºC to +1050 ºC. It covers four types of exfoliated vermiculite products:
- Vermiculite Aggregate (EVA)
- Coated Vermiculite (EVC)
- Hydrophobic Vermiculite (EVH)
- Premixed Vermiculite (EVM)
The standard applies to products containing less than 1% organic material by mass. It focuses on specifications after installation, including necessary testing and checks by installers to ensure compliance and fitness for purpose.
Key Topics
Product Types and Application
- EN 15600-2 defines specifications for in-situ formed exfoliated vermiculite insulation products.
- The standard does not cover factory-made boards or preformed shapes containing exfoliated vermiculite.
- It is designed for insulation applied directly in place to complex equipment and industrial installations.
Thermal Performance Requirements
- Specifies thermal resistance and required insulation thickness to achieve desired performance.
- Thickness is calculated with respect to declared thermal conductivity using the formula:
d = Rs / λD
where d is thickness, Rs is specified thermal resistance, and λD is declared thermal conductivity. - Ensures installed thickness is not less than 80% of the specified value to maintain effective insulation.
Installation and Verification
- Details on measuring installed declared insulation thickness, including minimum number of measurement points and methods using calibrated depth gauges.
- Requires cavity fill to be complete as specified by the project specifier to avoid thermal bridging and inefficiency.
- Installer must conduct in-situ checks and document compliance.
Installer's Declaration
- The installer, in cooperation with the specifier, must provide a formal declaration to the client, including:
- Product trade name and designation code
- Declared and required thermal resistance
- Required and actual installed thickness
- Volume of insulation material used
- Installation date
- This declaration confirms adherence to procedures and compliance with EN 15600-1 and 15600-2 standards.
Applications
SIST EN 15600-2:2010 is essential for sectors involving thermal insulation of:
- Building mechanical equipment (e.g., HVAC ducts, pipes)
- Industrial installations exposed to a wide range of temperatures
- Facilities requiring insulation solutions that can be installed on-site to fit complex shapes or cavities
- Thermal management where energy efficiency, safety, and asset protection are critical
The standard ensures in-situ installed exfoliated vermiculite insulation products meet consistent quality and performance benchmarks, supporting thermal conservation goals and compliance with regulations.
Related Standards
EN 15600-2 is part of a series addressing in-situ thermal insulation products based on exfoliated vermiculite and similar materials:
- EN 15600-1:2010 – Specifies requirements for exfoliated vermiculite products before installation, including bonded and loose-fill forms.
- EN 14317-1 – Covers in-situ insulation formed from expanded vermiculite for building applications, focusing on product specifications.
- EN ISO 9229 – Defines terminology related to thermal insulation products to standardize vocabulary across the industry.
- EN 823:1994 – Provides methods for determining thickness of thermal insulation products, referenced for in-situ measurement verification.
Summary
SIST EN 15600-2:2010 provides a comprehensive framework for ensuring that exfoliated vermiculite insulation applied in-situ meets performance and installation quality requirements. Adhering to this standard guarantees thermal efficiency, safety, and reliable documentation, vital for engineers, installers, specifiers, and regulatory authorities involved in thermal insulation of building and industrial equipment. Using this standard advances energy conservation, supports regulatory compliance, and enhances the durability of thermal insulation installations.
