ABSTRACT:
A drum dryer for use in the manufacture of bituminous concrete asphalt is provided with a jacket including a layer of ceramic fiber insulation bonded too an outer sheath of aluminum, the jacket being wrapped the outer peripheral surface of the wall of the drum and secured in place with bands of stainless steel strapping so as to reduce to a minimum heat loss due to dissipation of heat from the outer peripheral surface of the drum wall, thereby enabling conservation of energy, while affording protection to personnel and equipment in the vicinity of the dryer drum against excessive heat. Weather seals are provided for inhibiting the entry of ambient moisture between the jacket and the outer peripheral surface of the wall of the drum.
