Client required surface preparation and protection of a pipe. The pipe would be exposed to high concentrations of sulphuric acid, at operating temperatures between 5°C and 30°C.
Abrasive blasted specified internal surfaces with new abrasive in accordance with ISO 8501-1 to Sa2 surface finish, to achieve a minimum surface profile of 50 microns.
Complete final blow down, sweep and vacuum cleaned thoroughly to remove dust.
Applied Plasmet AR3 to an average DFT of 1500 microns.
Carried out thickness testing
Spark tested following adequate cure of coating.
Carried out thickness testing.
Spark tested following adequate cure of coating.
Carried out post-cure in accordance with Plasmet AR3 data sheet.
Once cured, removed surface protection, dress edges and completed 100% visual inspection.
Abrasive blasted the external surfaces with ISO8501-1 to Sa2 surface finish.
