CORROSION CONTROL |
| Corrosive, acid gases, such as hydrogen sulfide, attack sensitive computer controls and other critical electronics that can affect the reliability of plant processes. Corrosive gases attack edge connectors, pin connectors, IC plug-in sockets, wire-wrap connections, and other metal components. If not controlled, corrosion leads to blocked currents, brittle connection points, and overheated systems. By using Purafil ESD Corrosion Control Scrubbers, you can improve process reliability. You can also prevent expenditures for new systems and avoid premature repairs. Purafil offers the following four solutions for corrosion control in spaces housing sensitive electronics: |
| Solution #1: Pressurize and purify. Purafil ESD’s Tub Scrubber, Deep Bed Scrubber, and Positive Pressurization Unit remove corrosive gases from intake air and pressurize the room to prevent gases from entering through doors and leaks in the ceiling and walls. All scrubbers feature Purafil ESD’s patented media. |

Solution #2: Recirculate and polish. Purafil ESD offers the Corrosive Air Unit designed to sit inside the room and provide an extra level of protection against corrosion. The Purafil Side Access System is an HVAC-integrated unit also designed to recirculate and polish the air of low-level corrosive gases. |

Solution #4: Monitor the air. Purafil ESD’s OnGuard® Continuous Corrosion Transmitter (CCT) measures in real-time the amount of corrosion present in your local environment. The monitor logs cumulative data, so you can detect and measure isolated corrosion events. Most importantly, the CCT transmits information to your building management system. With the CCT, you can take preventive action to correct corrosion problems before more severe damage occurs. |
