Model 1616 AR Insulated Saddle
Description:
The model 1616 AR insulated saddle is designed for outdoor use on ammonia refrigeration lines. This saddle is a cost-effective time-saver! Meets MSS SP-58, 9.2.2 for Type 40 Shields.
Features / Benefits:
- A complete composite assembly, for Fast and Easy Installation.
- A 360-degree section of 1.6 p.c.f. density extruded polystyrene foam pipe insulation for greater Thermal Efficiency.
- Choice of vapor retarders for Superior Condensation Control. Monolayer Film or
ASJ.
- A G-90 galvanized steel Buckaroos 360-degree shield for Maximum Insulation Protection at support locations.
- Double layer construction to Reduce Heat Gain for maximum performance.
- Engineered for lowest possible cost, yet delivers maximum performance on ammonia refrigeration applications. Extremely Cost Effective!
- Double Layer configuration matches adjoining insulation system perfectly.

1616 AR Insulated Saddle for Ammonia Piping
Saves Energy! Saves Labor! Saves Money!
Intended Application:
For use on ammonia piping systems with service temperatures between -297 and 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Use on rooftop rack piping to eliminate installation steps. 1616 AR insulated saddles save energy. Insure complete system integrity by eliminating compromised thermal performance at all support locations. Due to its complete design, the 1616 AR insulated saddle saves labor because it eliminates cutting and installing of temporary support blocks by the mechanical contractor and subsequent jacking-up of pipe by the insulators to place insulation in the support area. Reduces possibility of roof membrane damage.
