Technology & solutions
Hot-zone materials
Materials are selected for metal temperature, exposure chemistry, loading and duty cycle.
Heat-resistant stainless steel
AISI 310S is used in thermally loaded components specified by the design. Material grade alone does not determine the life of the entire heater.
What affects service life
Metal temperature, wall thickness, weld quality, thermal expansion and deposits are significant. Agricultural fuels may create additional corrosive exposure.
Materials in the specification
Material grades and their application zones are recorded for the particular system. Operation and maintenance requirements reflect the selected configuration.
