207817 - Miller 30-Inch Pipe PWHT Insulation Blanket 24x105

Miller 207817 Insulation Blanket for 30-Inch Pipe PWHT

The Miller 207817 Insulation Blanket is a specialized accessory designed to optimize the performance of induction heating systems during Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT). Engineered specifically for use on 30-inch diameter pipes, this blanket measures 24 inches in width and 105 inches in length. This precise sizing ensures that the blanket wraps completely around the pipe circumference with sufficient overlap, providing a continuous thermal barrier that is essential for uniform heating and stress relief.

In the realm of industrial welding and fabrication, controlling the thermal cycle of a weld is paramount to ensuring structural integrity. Induction heating is a preferred method for PWHT due to its speed and consistency, but it requires proper insulation to function correctly. This blanket serves two primary purposes: it thermally insulates the workpiece to maintain the required soak temperature, and it acts as a protective barrier between the hot pipe and the water-cooled induction coils. Without this layer of protection, the coils could be exposed to damaging radiant heat, and the system would lose significant energy to the surrounding environment.

Constructed from durable, high-temperature materials, the Miller 207817 is built to withstand the rigorous demands of field heat treatment. It is capable of enduring the high temperatures associated with stress relieving carbon and alloy steels. The blanket is flexible, allowing for easy installation and removal, and is designed to be reusable, making it a cost-effective solution for projects involving multiple joints of the same size. Whether you are working in pipeline construction, power generation, or petrochemical maintenance, this insulation blanket is a vital component of your Miller ProHeat induction system setup.

By using genuine Miller accessories like the 207817 blanket, operators ensure compatibility and safety. The dimensions are calculated to fit standard 30-inch pipe schedules, reducing setup time and eliminating the need to cut bulk insulation rolls to size. This ready-to-use solution streamlines the workflow, allowing welding crews to focus on the critical task of heat treatment without unnecessary delays.
