Design Solution
For a 35kW level II enclosure:• 11 pieces are to be cut from received
board• Installed into walls/doors• Installed above generator and around
exhaust system
Insulation board dimensions
Cutting/Forming
Done with circular saws 57.5 feet of cutting per enclosure Ventilation is required to eliminate spread
of dust
Insulation of door panels
Insulation of exhaust area
Elimination of perforated steel
Exhaust box installation
Insulation block
Perforated steel
Small bolts
Thickness will remain the same
Thermal conductivity of expanded perlite: .85 Btu in/hr ft2 °F
Thermal conductivity of mineral wool:1.06 Btu in/hr ft2 °F
Same thickness will be used Thermal insulation will improve

*Assuming a heat flow of 3000 Btu/hr
∆T = 735 °F
• For mineral wool with k = 1.06 Btu in/hr ft2 °F
∆T = 590 °F
