The FRP Cable Support Systems is most suitable where the metallic Systems gets Corroded (Iron gets rusted and Alluminium develops White or Silver grey Patina)
The Causes Of Corrosive Attack Are :-
Simple Chemical Attack :- |
When The Environment Is Loaded With
Chemical Vapours, The Attack Is Severe. |
Simple Chemical Corrosion :- |
|
Chlorine Contents :- |
In Atmospheric Air (Coastal / Sea) |
In any event the Metallic System Has Limited Service Life / Expectancy (Regardless Of How The End Point In Defined)
Frp Cable Trays :
Designed To Withstand Corrosion And Stresses.
The Main Features Are :
- Corrosion Resistant Excellent Environmental Resistant
- Rigid & Structurally Strong
- High Impact strength
- Light Weight
- Non Conductive (Electrical & Thermal)
- Non Sparking
- Chemical Resistant
- Non Magnetic
- Resistant to Chipping and Cracking
- U. V. Stabilized
- No Water Absorbsion
Material of construction :-
Main Ingredients :
- Glass Fibres (Roving)
- Glass Mat
- Surface veil
- Resin (ISO PHATHALIC OR VINYLESTER)
- Additives
Process Pultrusion :-
Pultrusion is a manufacturing process for producing continuous length of reinforced plastic structural shapes.
The process involves pulling of Continuous Glass Fibres, Continuous Glass Fibre Mat, Plastic fibre veil through a liquid resin bath. The glass fibre gets impregnated by the resin mixture and this impregnated fibre is pulled through a heated steel shaping die, where the resin gets GEL and the SOLID CONTINUOUS PROFILE comes out of the die.
The continuous Glass Roving give the strength in the longitudinal direction, where as Glass Mat gives the strength in the transverse direction.
The type of Resin to be used depends upon the environment where the cable support System is to be used.
For General Environment :- |
ISO PHATHALIC GRADE |
For Severe Corrosive Environment
(Caustic and strong acidic) :- |
VINYLESTER |
