In the production and operation of power plants, the safety and stability of the external insulation system are directly related to the normal operation of equipment, personnel safety, and enterprise production efficiency. As the core material for external insulation of power plants, rock wool board has become the preferred choice for many power plants due to its excellent fire resistance and insulation effect. Many companies pay attention to the key issue of "what is the fire rating of the external insulation rock wool board for power plants" when purchasing. As a manufacturer of Rosewool Insulation Refractory Co.,Ltd, we will provide a detailed answer to this question and comprehensively introduce the core advantages of the external insulation rock wool board for power plants and our cooperation highlights, providing professional solutions for power plant insulation projects. ​
                                                                                      

1、 Clarify the fire protection level of the external insulation rock wool board of the power plant and build a solid safety defense line

For the special requirements of external insulation in power plants, the fire rating of rock wool board needs to meet the industry's strict standards. According to the national "Classification of Combustion Performance of Building Materials and Products" (GB 8624-2012), the fire rating of rock wool board used for external insulation of power plants needs to reach the A1 level non combustible material standard, which is currently the highest fire rating among building insulation materials. A1 grade rock wool board does not burn or release toxic or harmful gases in the event of fire, nor does it produce molten droplets, which can effectively block the spread of fire. Even in the complex environment of high temperature and high pressure in power plants, it can maintain structural stability and provide reliable fire protection for power plant equipment, pipelines, and exterior walls, reducing fire hazards from the source and ensuring production safety in power plants. ​
It is worth noting that the external insulation rock wool board produced by Rosetexwool not only strictly meets the A1 level fire protection standard, but also has passed the testing and certification of national authoritative institutions. Each batch of products comes with a complete testing report to ensure the authenticity and reliability of fire performance, allowing power plant enterprises to have no worries when using it. ​


2、 The core advantage of external insulation rock wool board for power plants is that it is suitable for the strict requirements of industrial plants

In addition to its top-notch fire resistance, the rock wool board for external insulation in power plants also has the advantage of being suitable for multiple power plant scenarios, making it an ideal choice for external insulation in industrial plants. ​
Firstly, excellent thermal insulation performance meets the energy-saving needs of power plants. Power plant equipment generates a large amount of heat during operation, and improper insulation can cause serious heat loss and increase energy consumption. The thermal conductivity of the external insulation rock wool board of Rosetexwool Power Plant is as low as 0.036W/(m · K) or below, which can effectively block heat transfer, reduce heat loss of equipment, pipelines and factory walls, help the power plant reduce energy consumption costs, and meet the requirements of national energy conservation and emission reduction policies. Taking the external insulation of boiler pipelines in power plants as an example, after laying rock wool boards, the surface temperature of the pipelines can be controlled within a safe range, reducing heat loss by more than 25%. Long term use can save considerable energy costs for power plants. ​
Secondly, excellent weather resistance and corrosion resistance make it suitable for complex environments. Power plants are mostly located in outdoor environments, and rock wool boards need to withstand harsh weather conditions such as wind, sun, rain, and extreme cold and heat. At the same time, they also need to resist corrosive gases and dust erosion that may occur during the production process of power plants. The external insulation rock wool board of Rosetexwool Power Plant is treated with special technology, with a tight fiber structure and a weather resistant coating added to the surface, which can effectively resist UV aging, rainwater infiltration, and chemical corrosion. The service life can reach more than 10 years, reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement in the later stage and lowering the operation and maintenance costs of the power plant. ​
In addition, good sound insulation and noise reduction performance enhance the working environment of power plants. Power plant equipment generates significant noise during operation, which affects the surrounding environment and personnel work efficiency. The porous structure inside the rock wool board can effectively absorb sound waves and reduce noise propagation. After being laid on the exterior walls of the factory and the insulation layer outside the equipment, it can reduce the noise in the factory area by 15-20 decibels, creating a more comfortable working environment for workers and reducing noise pollution to the surrounding environment. ​
