Know more about “ArmaComfort AB AL PUR”:

1. What is ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
   ArmaComfort AB AL PUR is a multi-layer acoustic insulation material manufactured by Armacell. It consists of an aluminium-covered EPDM-EVA acoustic barrier layer (typically 2mm thick) combined with a decoupling polyurethane (PUR) foam layer (typically 10mm thick).
2. What are the primary functions of ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
   Its primary functions are excellent acoustic performance (sound reduction and damping) and excellent fire performance (high fire rating). It is designed to reduce both airborne and structure-borne noise.
3. What does “PUR” in the name signify?
   “PUR” refers to the Polyurethane foam layer that acts as a decoupling element, separating the mass barrier from the vibrating surface, which significantly enhances its acoustic-damping properties.
4. What kind of noise does ArmaComfort AB AL PUR help reduce?
   It is specifically designed to reduce noise from wastewater, rainwater, and sewage pipes. It also helps in reducing noise in HVAC systems, and can be used in walls, ceilings, and industrial enclosures to reduce general airborne sound transmission.
5. What is the fire performance rating of ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
   ArmaComfort AB AL PUR typically achieves a very high fire rating of B-s1,d0 according to EN 13501-1. This means it has a very limited contribution to fire (B), very low smoke emission (s1), and no flaming droplets (d0), enhancing people’s safety.
6. What is the Weighted Sound Reduction Index (Rw) for ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
   The Weighted Sound Reduction Index (Rw) for ArmaComfort AB AL PUR is typically around 29 dB. This indicates its effectiveness in reducing sound transmission.
7. What are the common applications for ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
   Common applications include acoustic insulation for:
   • Drainage pipes (waste, rain, sewage) in residential and commercial buildings.
   • HVAC systems (ducts, compressors, plant rooms).
   • Partition walls and ceilings.
   • Industrial enclosures and machinery.
   • OEM applications.
8. How does its multi-layer structure contribute to its performance?
   The multi-layer structure combines a heavy EPDM-EVA barrier (for sound blocking/mass) with a lighter, decoupling PUR foam layer (for sound absorption and vibration damping), offering superior acoustic performance compared to single-layer materials. The aluminum covering often adds to fire performance and durability.
9. Is ArmaComfort AB AL PUR self-adhesive?
   ArmaComfort AB AL PUR is often available in self-adhesive sheets, which simplifies and speeds up the installation process.
10. What are the typical dimensions and thickness of ArmaComfort AB AL PUR sheets?
    Common dimensions include a thickness of 12 mm (2mm barrier + 10mm foam) and standard widths (e.g., 1000 mm) and lengths (e.g., 2000 mm).
11. How does ArmaComfort AB AL PUR compare to traditional fibrous insulation for acoustics?
    Unlike fibrous materials, ArmaComfort AB AL PUR offers superior damping and blocking properties in a thinner profile. It’s also less prone to moisture absorption and particle release, contributing to better indoor air quality.
12. Does it have any thermal insulation properties?
    While primarily an acoustic insulation, the elastomeric foam component (and particularly the PUR foam) provides some thermal insulation properties, which can help prevent condensation on pipes, although it’s not its primary function or optimized for high thermal efficiency compared to dedicated thermal insulation products.
13. Is ArmaComfort AB AL PUR resistant to moisture or mold growth?
    The materials used (EPDM-EVA, PUR foam, and aluminum facing) contribute to its moisture resistance, helping to prevent condensation and minimize the risk of corrosion and mold growth on the insulated surfaces.
14. What is the service temperature range for ArmaComfort AB AL PUR?
    ArmaComfort AB AL PUR typically has a maximum service temperature of +100 °C.
15. Does ArmaComfort AB AL PUR contribute to better Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)?
    Yes, as an Armacell product, it is designed to be free of lead, bitumen, halogen, and formaldehyde, and generally has low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions. This makes it a good choice for sensitive environments and contributes to improved indoor air quality.
16. How is ArmaComfort AB AL PUR installed on pipes or ducts?
    Installation involves measuring the circumference of the pipe/duct, cutting the ArmaComfort sheet to size, applying a compatible adhesive (like Armaflex 520) if it’s not self-adhesive, and firmly pressing the material around the surface, ensuring all seams and joints are properly sealed with appropriate tape.
17. Is ArmaComfort AB AL PUR suitable for visible applications?
    While it has an aluminium covering, other ArmaComfort Barrier products (like Barrier P) might be specifically designed for visible applications. AB AL PUR is more typically used where it can be covered or where the aesthetic of aluminum is acceptable.
18. What certifications does ArmaComfort AB AL PUR hold?
    It typically complies with European standards such as EN 13501-1 for fire performance and ISO 10140-2, EN ISO 717-1 for acoustic performance.
