by accredited lab).

Chilled water systems:

For indoor applications (ambient temperature: 24 °C; line temperature: 4.5 – 5.5 °C; relative
humidity: 50%; pipe diameters: up to 6”) we recommend a minimum thickness of 12 mm.
For outdoor applications (ambient temperature: 46 °C; line temperature: 4.5 – 5.5 °C; relative
humidity: 65%) we recommend a minimum thickness of 20 mm (pipe diameters up to 2 1/2”) and 25
mm (pipe diameters up to 6”).
