Corrosion protection: PTFE lining and coating with C276 alloy

For one of our good end users in the Netherlands we have together developed a nice and robust solution to increase the lifetime of their instruments. With the below configuration of diaphragm seal and selection of materials, they significantly increased their up-time. This selection in combination with the diaphragm seal selection, enabling the mounting on a small process connection, to ensure optimum performance and durability.

The US-FH seal type

This seal type is the US-FH type, the FH standing for flanged connection in H shape to allow for insulation. The process connection is a DN15 PN10-40. The US-FH series is a two-piece design, that allows for a small process connection, with a lower part that enlarges to a larger diaphragm. And a larger diaphragm allows for better performance and more durable measurements. The complete construction in this case is in full AISI 316(L), with wetted parts in alloy C276 and corrosion resistant PTFE lining.

For additional (corrosion) protection and for non-stick purposes, the alloy C276 diaphragm is covered with a polymer coating on 40 micron thickness, in this case PTFE. All robustly assembled and welded according to stringent procedures by certified welders. And thoroughly tested for performance and pressure tested according to PED guidelines (2014/68/EU).

Ready for long time use!
