Overview
SIST EN 14306:2010/kFprA1:2012 is a European Standard developed by CEN that specifies the requirements for factory-made calcium silicate (CS) thermal insulation products. These products are used primarily for the thermal insulation of building equipment and industrial installations operating within a broad temperature range from approximately -170 °C to +1100 °C. The standard covers CS products manufactured in various forms including boards, pipe sections, segments, and prefabricated ware.
This standard provides detailed specifications on product characteristics, testing procedures, conformity evaluation, marking, and labelling. It is a vital reference for manufacturers, designers, and engineers who deal with the selection and application of calcium silicate insulation products in technical building equipment and industrial contexts.
Key Topics
Product Scope and Forms
EN 14306 applies to factory-made calcium silicate products such as boards and pipe sections but excludes products intended for insulating building structures or applications with thermal conductivity above 0.6 W/(m·K) at 10 °C.Temperature Range
Calcium silicate insulation covered under this standard is suitable for extreme temperature ranges from cryogenic levels (around -170 °C) to very high temperatures (up to +1100 °C), making it versatile for multiple industrial uses.Testing and Evaluation
The standard outlines test methods for assessing physical properties like thermal conductivity, water absorption, and compressive strength (for load-bearing applications). It includes protocols for both initial type testing (ITT) and factory production control (FPC). Recent amendments emphasize the evaluation of water absorption in addition to other performance criteria.Conformity and Performance Declaration
Manufacturers are required to follow procedures for the attestation of conformity, including issuing declarations of performance in compliance with EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) No. 305/2011, effective from July 2013.Marking and Labelling
Proper marking and labelling requirements ensure traceability and inform stakeholders of key product characteristics aligned with regulatory expectations.Exclusions
The standard explicitly excludes structural properties of composite systems incorporating calcium silicate, acoustical performance aspects such as airborne sound insulation and impact noise transmission indices, and insulation products for building structures.
Applications
Calcium silicate insulation products conforming to SIST EN 14306:2010/kFprA1:2012 are widely used in the following areas:
Thermal Insulation of Industrial Equipment
Insulation for pipes, vessels, tanks, and other industrial installations requiring high-temperature resistance and mechanical strength.Building Equipment Insulation
Used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems within commercial and industrial buildings for efficient energy management.Prefabricated Thermal Insulation Systems
Integrated into composite panels or prefabricated insulation modules, enhancing installation speed and system performance, although this standard does not cover the structural behavior of such systems.Cryogenic Applications
Applied in installations where insulation at very low temperatures is essential, such as LNG processing and cryogenic storage.
By providing clear specifications and ensuring consistent quality, EN 14306 supports improved energy efficiency, safety, and durability of thermal insulation installations in critical sectors.
Related Standards
EN 13172 – Provides general principles for evaluation of conformity of thermal insulation products, including reaction to fire, thermal resistance, and mechanical properties.
Construction Products Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 – Governs the marketing and use of construction products within the EU, requiring declarations of performance for CE marking compliance.
Other CEN Standards for Thermal Insulation
Standards covering other materials such as mineral wool or foam insulation that complement calcium silicate products in building and industrial applications.Acoustical Standards
While EN 14306 excludes acoustical properties, other standards address sound insulation and noise transmission relevant to building installations.
By adhering to SIST EN 14306:2010/kFprA1:2012, stakeholders ensure their calcium silicate insulation products meet stringent European quality and safety requirements, facilitating reliable high-performance thermal management in building and industrial applications. This enhances sustainability, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance throughout the lifecycle of insulated installations.
