HEAT-INSULATION FOR DOMESHAPED BOTTOM OR COVER REGION OF A PRESSURE VESSEL

摘要

Heat-insulation for domeshaped bottom and/or cover regions of a pressure vessel, the heat insulation being penetrated by a multiplicity of pressure vessel unions extending parallel to the axis of the pressure vessel, including an integral dome formed of heat-insulation having a passage formed therein for each of the pressure vessel unions, guide elements extending parallel to the axis of the pressure vessel for centering the heat-insulation dome with respect to the pressure vessel and for axially movably mounting the heat-insulation dome so that it can be lowered from a largely convection-proof operating position thereof to a storage position thereof onto an assembly platform, whereby the union passages of the pressure vessel are exposed for inservice testing, and can be raised back to the operating position thereof.
