Knauf Equipment Liner M with ECOSE® Technology
Description
Knauf Equipment Liner M with ECOSE Technology is a brown
flexible fiber glass blanket with a facing adhered to the air
stream side. The product provides thermal and acoustical insulation
while providing a smooth, tough air stream surface which resists
damage during installation and operation.
ECOSE Technology
ECOSE Technology is a revolutionary new binder chemistry that
makes Knauf Insulation products even more sustainable than ever. It
is based on rapidly renewable bio-based materials rather than
non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals traditionally used in
fiberglass insulation products. ECOSE Technology reduces binder
embodied energy and does not contain phenol, formaldehyde, acrylics
or artificial colors.
Application
It is used to provide noise reduction and thermal insulation for
equipment (air conditioning, heating) where air erosion resistance
is required. The product is designed for systems operating at
temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) and velocities up to 6000 fpm
(1829 mpm).
Features and Benefits
• Certified for indoor air quality as a low emitting product by
The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute to both the GREENGUARD
Certification ProgramSM and the more stringent GREENGUARD Children
and SchoolsSM standard.
Sustainability
• Carbon negative: meaning Knauf
insulation products used for thermal insulating purposes recover
the energy that it took to make them iin just hours or a few days,
depending on the application. Once installed, the product continues
to save energy and reduce carbon generation as long as it is in
place.
• Fiber glass insulation with ECOSE
Technology contains three primary ingredients:
• Sand, one of the world’s most
abundant and renewable resources
• Post-consumer recycled bottle
glass
• ECOSE Technology which reduces
binder embodied energy by up to 70%
Technical Data
Fire Resistance
- Meets NFPA 90A and NFPA 90B Standards for fire
safety.
Temperature Range (ASTM C
411)
Air Velocity (ASTM C
1071)
- Maximum 6000 fpm (1829 mpm).
Corrosiveness (ASTM C
665)
- Does not accelerate corrosion on steel, copper or
aluminum.

chloride solution.
Water Vapor Sorption (ASTM C
1104)
Surface Burning
Characteristics (UL/ULC Listed)
- When tested in accordance with ASTM E 84, UL 723, CAN 4-S102,
and NFPA-255, Knauf Equipment Liner M does not exceed 25 Flame
Spread, 50 Smoke Developed
Microbial Growth
(ASTM C 1338, G 21)
- The airstream surface mat facing is treated with an
EPA-registered anti-microbial agent to aid in the prevention of
fungal and bacterial growth.
- Does not promote or support the growth of mold, fungi or
bacteria.
Fiber Glass and Mold
Fiber glass insulation will not sustain mold growth. However,
mold can grow on almost any material when it becomes wet and
contaminated. Carefully inspect any insulation that has been
exposed to water. If it shows any sign of mold it must be
discarded. If the material is wet but shows no evidence of mold, it
should be dried rapidly and thoroughly. If it shows signs of facing
degradation from wetting, it should be replaced. Air handling
insulation used in the air stream must be discarded if exposed to
water.
Notes
The chemical and physical properties of Knauf Equipment Liner M
with ECOSE Technology represent typical average values determined
in accordance with accepted test methods. The data is subject to
normal variations. The data is supplied as a technical service and
is subject to change without notice. References to numerical flame
spread ratings are not intended to reflect hazards presented by
these, or any other material under actual fire conditions.
