External FBE coating

External FBE coating

External FBE coating

(OP)
Dear All,
I have one query regarding FBE external coating. Line is production UG pipe line and Max. design temp is 110 deg C. Which FBE is suitable whether single layer FBE or Dual Layer FBE?? Please suggest. I need to choose one option out of these two.

Thanks

RE: External FBE coating

There are single layer coatings that can withstand that temperature. The dual layer coatings usually are for added functionality like:

• Anti-slip (higher friction surface)
• Ultraviolet radiation resistance (weathering)
• Elevated temperature resistance
• Improved damage resistance during construction

Thank you CoryPad.
Can you provide me the Single layer FBE coating details, if you have?

RE: External FBE coating

(OP)
Thank you very much CoryPad

RE: External FBE coating

Even better - refer to ISO 21809-2 and request the coating manufacturer's qualification test report demonstrating achievement of the required properties for 110 deg C. Ecopetrol from Colombia have a couple of nice papers on qualification testing of FBE for 150 deg C: NACE Corrosion 2012, Papers 2012-1535 and 2012-1674.

We could also go down the debating road of "do we work with pipeline design temperature, or pipeline maximum operating temperature" which could buy you a few more candidates.

RE: External FBE coating

Just read SP0394 - good to see that they have caught up with ISO at last (not surprising as the same players were behind the two standards). So , you can also ask for the Product Quality Certificate.

eBook - Rethink Your PLM
A lot has changed since the 90s. You don't surf the Web using dial-up anymore, so why are you still using a legacy PLM solution that's blocking your ability to innovate? To develop and launch products today, you need a flexible, cloud-based PLM, not a solution that's stuck in the past. Download Now
White Paper - Using Virtualization for IVI and AUTOSAR Consolidation on an ECU
Current approaches used to tackle the complexities of a vehicle’s electrical and electronics (E/E) architecture are both cost prohibitive and lacking in performance. Utilizing virtualization in automotive software architecture provides a better approach. This can be achieved by encapsulating different heterogeneous automotive platforms inside virtual machines running on the same hardware. Download Now
White Paper - The Criticality of the E/E Architecture
Modern vehicles are highly sophisticated systems incorporating electrical, electronic, software and mechanical components. Mechanical systems are giving way to advanced software and electronic devices, driving automakers to innovate and differentiate their vehicles via the electric and electronic (E/E) architecture. As the pace of change accelerates, automotive companies need to evolve their development processes to deliver and maximize the value of these architectures. Download Now
