Increasing productivity with Devcon Ceramic Coatings
In heavy industrial processing environments such as mining, quarrying, petroleum, power generation and wastewater, taking a reliability centered maintenance approach to equipment longevity and efficiency is critical to ensuring output and productivity. Fixed plant maintenance stakeholders are consistently challenged with the effects of reduced efficiency or process failure due to the high wear conditions and degradation of plant and processing equipment in these environments.
Devcon Brushable Ceramic is a high-performance, ceramic-filled epoxy protective coating system designed to repair, seal and protect surfaces exposed to erosion, corrosion and wear. Acting as a protective coating over the primary wear surface, these ceramic coatings are highly durable and are designed to extend the wear surface lifecycle to support efficient plant and equipment utilisation and increased uptime.
Key Features and Use
Ease of use low viscosity formulation: allows for simple application with a brush or roller ensuring smooth, even coating that adheres well to various surfaces.
High Temperature Resistance: withstands temperatures up to 177°C, this ceramic-filled epoxy is suitable for environments with extreme thermal conditions.
Chemical Resistance: provides excellent resistance to acids, solvents, and alkalis, making it ideal for harsh chemical environments.
High Durability: forms a tough, protective barrier reducing wear, abrasion, and cavitation to support process efficiency and extend the equipment lifecycle.
Applications
Devcon ceramic coatings reduce wear and degradation in a wide range of applications, including but not limited to:
Pump Casings
Impeller Blades
Gate Valves
Water Boxes
Fan Blades
Heat Exchangers
Tube Sheets
Benefits and Value
Devcon ceramic coatings provide a smooth, protective coating that repairs, seals and protects against erosion and corrosion, reducing the need for frequent or unplanned maintenance. The ceramic coating enhances durability and process performance by minimizing abrasion and reducing cavitation, particularly in fluid environments.
Ease of application, high temperature resistance, and chemical durability make Devcon Brushable Ceramic a highly effective solution for extending equipment life, reducing costs and improving operational efficiency to maximise process uptime. When considering the cost of downtime due to unplanned maintenance intervals or process failure, Brushable Ceramic is a high return on investment solution.
