Application

Suitable for application on-site and off-site by PPG trained, approved, certified applicators.

Description

Suitable for use in industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, energy, transportation and defence that potentially involve major accident hazards including explosions, hydrocarbon jet and pool fires. Also provides Cryogenic Spill Protection (CSP) requirements on LNG facilities.

Features and benefits:

  • Provides passive fire protection to structures, divisions (decks, bulkheads, and firewalls), process vessels, pipework, and equipment which are safety critical. Ensures structural stability, integrity, and meets insulation requirements.
  • Suitable for use in offshore and onshore environments with ISO 12944-2 corrosivity categories of C5 and CX (offshore).
  • Resistant to industrial environments, including splash and spillage of chemicals.
  • Suitable for substrates including aluminum, carbon steel, galvanized steel, stainless/duplex steels, and composites.
  • Resistant to damage from vibration, abrasion, impact, and deflection of structures during fabrication, transportation, extreme loading conditions, and low temperatures.
  • Withstands vapor cloud explosion events, including blast over-pressure, drag, and secondary projectile impact forces.
  • Can be applied by spray, nozzle, or trowel. Suitable for converting into finished goods, e.g. valve and flange enclosures.
  • Independently tested in accordance with recognized national and international test standards, including: ASTM E-84, BS 476, GB 14907, GOST R 53295, GOST R EN 1363-2, IMO FTP Code, ISO 22899-1, ISO 12944, ISO 20902-1, ISO 20088-3, NFPA 290, NORSOK M501 Edition 6, UL 2431, and UL 1709 Rev.5.
  • Type approval and certification by industry-leading class societies, including: ABS, DNV, LR, and RMRS.
  • Service temperature limits: -60°C (-76°F) to +80°C (176°F) continuous.
