Thermal Insulation of 316 SS, in Immersed condition
(OP)
Hi,
Please advise, Thermal Insulation of instrument units (316 SS), in Immersed condition (High Water Table). The possibility of corrosion, due to differential concentration of oxygen (depletion of oxygen at fastener locations – tying strip) – CREVICE Corrosion, pitting and cyclic effect of water Table (dry/wet) condition. Normal Temperature.
Would it be better to coat the Instrument units, before covered with Thermal Insulation Materials, as the CP current will not be able to reach them?
et)condition. Normal Temperature.

Thank you very much for your reply.
Due to difficulty of access in the pit and availability of the spraying equipment, can we just use a suitable coating for stainless Steel (such as Epoxy Coating) instrument units?
