Prevent Corrosion !

Corrosive products packaging

 

Metal corrosion is essentially of electro-chemical nature, it occurs at the interface between the metal and the external environment.

To prevent corrosion, especially in a closed environment such as a filling process, it is very difficult to control the parameters influencing corrosion, such as the chemical composition of the product, its temperature, abrasiveness, pressure and fluid velocity.

Therefore, it is advisable to choose a material that does not corrode in the environment considered.

Serac put together its RC filling machine range by replacing 304 stainless steel with chemical resistant plastics such as polyethylene or polypropylene, 316L, titanium or even hastelloy in some specific cases.

 

Thanks to the right selection of material, Serac customers spend less than 1% of their machine acquisition price on yearly maintenance.
