Abstract
The invention relates to an enclosure for parts of a low-temperature air separation system. The side walls extending perpendicular to the base surface of the enclosure are each lined with a sheet metal jacket consisting of several panels (1a, 1b, 2a, 2b). The joints of the panels (1a, 1b, 2a, 2b) of a side wall all have the same distance from one another.
Claims25
A process for producing an enclosure for parts of a low-temperature air separation system, the enclosure having a base surface and side walls that extend perpendicular to said base surface, said process comprising:
- forming several panels, each panel comprising a metal frame (3, 4) and a sheet metal lining (8), wherein, in each of said panels, said frame is attached to the periphery of said sheet metal lining, said frames being provided with diagonal braces made from round pipes mounted on said frames, attaching one or more walkways to panels of said enclosure before assembly of the enclosure, then connecting said panels (3, 4) to one another to form the enclosure around one or more parts of the low-temperature air separation system;
- and then filling the enclosure with thermal insulation material.
