3.5  Insulation material 

Insulation material is commonly used in a system to insulate the suction line, suction accumulator, 
expansion valve bulb  or discharge line thermostat.  When choosing the insulation material for A2L 
applications,  particular  attention  shall  be  paid  to  its  non-electrostatic  properties,  as  it  could  be  a 
potential ignition source.
