CARBOGUARD® Technische Information Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Process Equipment More safety and reliability SGL Group developed carbon fiber reinforced graphite and silicon carbide (SiC) parts to ensure the operational reliability and the safety of its equipment. This technology is named CARBOGUARD. For more than 30 years, hundreds of customers around the world have benefited from the unmatched reliability and performance of the CARBOGUARD equipment in the toughest process conditions. Application CARBOGUARD increases the operational reliability of DIABON graphite and other materials (e.g. SiC tubes for FLUROSIC®) enabling higher efficiency and throughput. It extends the range of application under high-stress conditions like temperature or pressure shocks. CARBOGUARD is mainly used for tube sheets, headers, column sections and especially for tubes. Technological benefits CARBOGUARD shows the following key features: P Enhanced mechanical strength P 30 to 40 % higher bursting pressures P Leakage protection up to 3 – 5 bar differential pressure P Shatter guard P Higher efficiency Broad Base. Best Solutions. DIABON® graphite tubesheet with CARBOGUARD® Customer benefits CARBOGUARD improves the mechanical properties of graphite and SiC components. This will allow our customers to operate their equipment with: P Highest possible safety P Longer life time P ignificantly reduced shut downs S for maintenance P Lower total cost of ownership

Unmatched technological leadership SGL Group as the technology leader stands for unmatched quality of its carbon fiber-reinforced components. P ighly pretensioned carbon fibers are wrapped H around DIABON graphite or SiC components. P ully automated wrapping technology ensures F maximum thermal conductivity of tubes and reproducible high quality. Shatter Guard Should a CARBOGUARD component like a tube or a column segment crack as a result of overstressing by a e.g. pressure surge, CARBOGUARD will prevent the uncontrolled release of debris and hence lower the risk of damages to surrounding...
