The Problem
Compressor Station Maintenance: A compressor station faced a significant challenge as its existing coal tar epoxy coating began to fail. The station required a robust, high-performance solution that could offer long-term protection and reliability. The need for an effective solution was imperative to maintain the station’s operational integrity and safety.
The Substrate
The primary material of concern at the compressor station was metal. Metal substrates, while durable and strong, can be susceptible to corrosion and wear, especially in harsh industrial environments like a compressor station.
The Solution
To address the failing coal tar epoxy and upgrade the compressor station’s protection during this compressor station maintenance, the following approach was taken:
- Selection of 3M Scotchkote 323+: 3M Scotchkote 323+, a high-performance, two-part liquid epoxy coating, was chosen for its superior corrosion protection and long-lasting durability. This coating is known for its robustness in industrial applications and was deemed ideal for the compressor station’s needs.
- Availability and Delivery: One of the critical factors in the selection process was the availability of the product. Unconventional Solutions not only stocked 3M Scotchkote 323+ but also provided rapid delivery through their “hot shot” delivery service. This prompt response ensured that the project could proceed without any unnecessary delays.
- Application: The 3M Scotchkote 323+ was applied to the compressor station, replacing the failing coal tar epoxy. The application process was carefully managed to ensure proper adherence and optimal coating performance.
