Corroded Chiller Refurbishment

Corroded Chiller Refurbishment

The Problem

Our client had existing Chillers that had never been coated before. Upon inspection, they noticed a lot of Galvanic corrosion and pitting on the tube face sheet and lid of the chiller.

The Substrate

Carbon Steel and Copper Tube Sheets

Products Used

Duromar SAR Standard Abrasion Ceramic

Duromar EAC Ceramic Lining

The Solution

The USI crew came in and set up tents to contain the end of the chillers for dust control. We corked the tube sheets to prevent blast media from entering the tubes. We sandblasted the chiller ends to remove corrosion and achieve the proper profile. After sandblasting we vacuumed the area. We then applied two separate coats of Duromar SAR Standard Abrasion Ceramic to any pitted or damaged areas. We then applied two separate coats of Duromar EAC Ceramic Lining. One coat in red and an overcoat in grey.
