Removable Intumescent Fireproof Coatings Simple Fireproof Protection, Quickly!

Limitorque FR Shells - Removable Intumescent Fireproof Coatings - 2

Features FR Shells, manufactured by Mov Limited, offer an intumescent fireproof coating in a removable design. The construction is reinforced with wire to enhance its performance and protection of the valve actuator for at least 30 minutes against a hydrocarbon fire. Based on this design capability, the valve actuator will not require being sent to the OEM for replacement coatings in the event of a fire. The intumescent coating can be installed on-site for existing actuators without any modification. The design of the intumescent coating comes in sectional forms and is assembled/secured...

Performance Properties Test Criteria The intumescent coating is in a solid state until contact is made with fire. Once contact is made, the intumescent coating (coating surface) is converted into a highly viscous liquid. The intumescent coating then reacts, combining combustion of the epoxy and gas liberation. This results in an expansion up to eight times the initial thickness and forms a low-density, carbonaceous insulation char. The layer of char absorbs most of the heat generated by the fire, thus protecting the actuator and its internal parts from exposure to the extreme temperatures...

Paint A primer coat is applied prior to final painting on the intumescent coating. In order to prevent chemical reaction, only approved paints are applied on the intumescent coating. Factory standard final color is OSHA Safety Purple. Installation The intumescent coating is composed of various parts, including: control cover, motor cover and terminal cover. They are assembled together with an SS304 fixing screw. To prevent any damages, the intumescent coatings are separately packed and are recommended to be assembled onto the actuators once installed at the site. Lifetime No major...
