conductivity is lower. Tis not only reduces heat loss, but also keeps the overall surface temperature of the pipe lower, reducing the chance of burns to maintenance and operating personnel, and minimises its contribution to the overall ambient temperature in the area of operation. Te piping has a high flammability resistance as its limiting oxygen index is 60. It requires 60% of oxygen to be able to sustain a flame when burning. As our atmosphere only consists of 20 to 21% of oxygen, CPVC will not burn on its own and will not contribute to flashover. When tested according to EN 13501-1:2002 to determine its fire classification, CPVC achieves a rating of B-s1-d0 (low flammability, no smoke development, no burning drops).
A variety of mineral processing applications can benefit from Corzan CPVC piping
Corzan Industrial Systems and its customers
have tested hundreds of different chemicals to determine the system’s chemical resistance. Tese industrial piping systems have a field-proven record that meets the ever-increasing demands of mineral processing applications. By utilising high-performance, corrosion resistant Corzan CPVC resin-based cement with the piping systems, critical demands are achieved. Tis combination of materials provides an excellent balance of properties that improve reliability and user confidence. It also reduces capital and life- cycle costs, avoiding costly downtime and most importantly, allowing mineral processing plants to remain operational and optimally productive. l
