Corrosion guide for 50/50 mix of salts Sodium Nitrate & Potassium Nit
Corrosion guide for 50/50 mix of salts Sodium Nitrate & Potassium Nit
(OP)
Hi,
I have number of tanks where electric heaters are required to heat salts.
Medium is 50/50 mix of Sodium Nitrite (NaNO2) & Potassium Nitrite (KNO3), operating @ +260C.
Is this mix severly corrosive?
Are SS316 sheath elements & Flange OK for this application.
Thanks
Fasi Rahman

Someone told me that Nickle Sheath Elements & Flange(?) are corrosion resistant with above mix. Is that right?
