Description
SoliBloc™ modules are unique monolithic fiber modules that incorporate our premium Generation III fiber technology. Our SoliBloc™ ULS® is based on our Low Bio Persistence fiber and has a classification temperature of 1260°C. These fiber modules offer exceptional thermal insulation, high strength, and are suitable for applications with high gas velocities.
Unlike standard stack or folded modules which are made from compressed blanket strips, SoliBloc™ ULS® modules consist of two sections of SoliSlab™ arranged in an edge grain orientation. These sections are held together by two stainless steel tubes placed transversely through the modules, away from the hot face. The edge grain orientation and interlocking of
the fibers enable the SoliBloc™ ULS® modules to withstand high gas velocities without fiber erosion.
SoliBloc™ ULS® modules are based on our Generation III, Ultra Low Shot fiber technology SoliWool™ ULS® fiber. This technology results in better insulation, higher strength and improved handling. With a classification temperature
of 1260°C and can be used to 1100°C continuously.
SoliBloc™ ULS® modules are available in densities from 160 t0 220 kg/m3 in a standard dimension of 305x305 mm. Thanks to our high fiber index, our 220 kg/m3 modules deliver the same performance as a traditional 240 kg/m3 modules.
SoliBloc™ modules are anchored to the furnace casing with one of our 3 standardized anchoring systems.
- Center fix direct weld system,
- Center fix tube and stud system,
- Side fix anchor system system
All offered anchoring systems come with all required items for the fixing system and the hardware is offered in various grades of stainless steel.
SoliBloc™ ULS-grade is part of the SoliBloc monolitic fiber module product range. With a variety of 2 Refractory Ceramic Fiber (RCF) grades, the famous ‘ULS®’ Low Bio Persistence Fiber grade and our latest addition the SoliBloc Pro with a classification temperature of 1500°C, we are offering the most extensive range temperature range of monolitic fiber modules in the market today. With our different chemical compositions we are able to provide a solution to nearly every atmosphere or temperature.
