The Importance Of Using Corrosion Resistant Equipment
Do your process applications create a corrosive environment for your equipment? Many industries, businesses and agricultural facilities; including refineries, oil fields, dairies, pork and poultry barns, paper mills, paint booths, dip tanks, steel working, manufacturing, laboratories and chemical plants, all have corrosive environments that can negatively affect equipment performance, resulting in the need for more frequent repairs and replacement of equipment. Thankfully, you can remove and ventilate areas that contain high levels of corrosives by adding the right kind off ventilation designed for these harsh atmospheric conditions:Â corrosion resistant industrial fans.
Corrosive Environments: Its Affect On Equipment
Corrosive environments can quickly cause a degradation of manufacturing and processing equipment, leading to frequent repairs and/or replacement. When choosing machinery, it’s important to choose products that are covered in an anti-corrosion coating or constructed from alloys that are known to be corrosion resistant, including stainless steel, copper, nickel and chromium. Corrosion resistant equipment, like fans and ventilators, may also be constructed out of fiberglass, polypropylene or another type of composite material that isn’t susceptible to corrosive chemicals and environmental conditions.
Removing Corrosive Materials via Venting Fans
Maintaining a healthy environment that is free of corrosive fumes may be as simple as installing one or more ventilation or exhaust fans to help ensure the contaminated air is removed from the building or circulated to areas that contain air purifiers or HVAC equipment with high-quality filters that can remove contaminants and vent the air from the building. Specially designed Circulator fans may also be used to continually move air within the building so that concentrations of corrosive gases can not accumulate in an given area.
4 Benefits of Corrosive Resistant Industrial Fans
In highly-corrosive environments, standard HVAC, fan and ventilation equipment is just as susceptible to corrosion as other types of machinery. For this reason, it’s important to always purchase corrosion-resistant ventilation products so they do not rust, experience excessive wear or have their internal and external parts corrode prematurely.
1. Ensure Equipment Lasts Its Entire Useful Life
Acidic and base chemicals and fumes can negatively affect the metal components in machinery, causing premature wear, corrosion, rust and frequent repairs. By ventilating the fumes and adding supplemental air, you will be helping to prevent component failures and shortened equipment lifespans.
2. Experience Fewer Equipment Breakdowns
By removing exhaust gases and adding supplemental air, you will be reducing your risk of experiencing an equipment breakdown due to the corrosive chemicals coming in contact with the metal surfaces of your machinery, including all moving parts and even the electrical components.
3. Improve Equipment Performance
When machinery experiences corrosion from chemicals, hazardous exhaust fumes and toxic vapors, it starts to lose efficiency. This is especially true with HVAC and ventilation equipment that does not have any corrosion resistant coatings or been constructed out of corrosion resistant alloys. When this happens, the equipment can experience up to a 40 percent loss in energy efficiency due to excessive wear and tear from corrosion.
4. Improve Production and Productivity
When your equipment isn’t subjected to a continuously corrosive and caustic environment, you will notice that you are able to maintain production and productivity. You will need to make fewer equipment repairs, and you’ll need to replace your critical machinery and equipment less often.
