In case of a cryogenic spill, the low temperatures of the fluid can damage structures, instruments and equipment and degrade protective insulation materials. RISE Fire Research offer testing of such insulation materials according to ISO 20088-1:2016 “Determination of the resistance to cryogenic spillage of insulation materials - Part 1: Liquid phase” and ISO 20088-3:2018 “Determination of the resistance to cryogenic spillage of insulation materials - Part 3: Jet release".
In addition, a cryogenic release of LNG represents a fire and explosion hazard, which means that insulation materials ought to withstand both the cryogenic release and jet fire. We offer custom designed tests to document the materials' resistance against cryogenic spill and a sequential jet fire.
