OVERVIEW<\/b><\/span><\/p><\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>

High temperature ducting located at the Longannet Power Station required a new protective coating system capable of being applied and operate at high temperatures.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

CHALLENGE<\/strong><\/p><\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The ducting would be operating at 150\u00baC during application. There could be no operational shutdown and no grit blasting was permissible.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

SOLUTION<\/strong><\/p><\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Wire brushing was selected as the surface preparation method to be utilised. This was followed by two coats of wet & rust tolerant Epo-chem\u2122 RL 500PF.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

OUTCOME<\/strong><\/p><\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The project was completed on time, within budget and to the complete satisfaction of all concerned.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
