Thermal insulating system for high temperature industrial tanks and equipment

Thermal insulating system for high temperature industrial tanks and equipment, comprising

• an insulating material placed on the walls of the industrial tanks and equipment,
• a covering system covering the insulating material, and
• a support system supporting the insulating material and the covering system,
• the thermal insulating system for high temperature industrial tanks and equipment wherein
• the covering system comprises a plurality of covering sheets,
• each covering sheet is fixed only to the support system,
• adjacent covering sheets overlap longitudinally one over the other, giving rise to overlapped sections, the overlapped sections comprising
• an upper part belonging to one of the adjacent covering sheets and
• a lower part belonging to the other adjacent covering sheet,
• the covering system comprises at least a substantially omega-shaped longitudinal assembly clip placed at each overlapped section, on the interior sides of the covering sheets, the longitudinal assembly clip comprising in turn
• a first end attached to the upper part of the overlapped section,
• a central portion separated from the covering sheets, and
• a second end contacting the lower part of the overlapped section and pressing said lower part,
• and the longitudinal assembly clip retains the lower part of the overlapped sections against the upper part in such position that said lower part always contacts said upper part at least on one point.
