Ceramic Saddles

US $100-$600 / Cubic Meter

When it comes to random packing’s and especially for corrosive applications, ceramic saddles are not only among the best but also most frequently used. They are mainly used in corrosive atmospheres and in heat transfer applications since they are of high resistance to thermal shock and chemical attacks.

Description

Ideally, ceramic saddles are used to ensure efficient mass transfer and low-pressure drop. They are also good for distillation especially when one is working with acids.

They are made from the porcelain chemical and therefore, have a high resistance to all acids. However, this resistance does not work in the case of hydrofluoric acid.

They also have an average heat capacity of between 20 and 500 of 0.2cal/g. The porcelain used in their manufacture also have a gravity of about 2.3-2.4g/cm3.

Specification

Ceramic saddles have the following specifications:

High rate of water absorption. This way, they cannot be destroyed when if they are at some point exposed to water.

Quality mohs hardness

Maximum use of temperature. The temperature helps ensure that the saddles handle objects of all temperatures.

Apparent particle density

High quality and safe chemicals. This helps ensure safety for all those handling the ceramic saddles.

They are also economical and one can, therefore, purchase ceramic saddles without them taking a significant chunk of your finances.

It has excellent chemical resistance. This means the ceramic saddles are constructed in a way that they cannot react with the chemicals on the product that they are used on.

Additionally, ceramic saddles are resistance to corrosion. You can use the saddles for a long time without replacing them.

This also means that you can use these ceramic saddles with tail gas scrubbers or acid gas scrubbers without fear of them being damaged.

They also have high mechanical strength features. With the high mechanical strength, you are sure that whatever you use to hold with the ceramic saddles remains safe.

Ceramic saddles also have a low purchasing cost and specific surface area. This means that you will not have a financial struggle or leave your wallet empty after investing in ceramic saddles.

The surface area of ceramic saddles is also big enough. This helps you ensure that whatever you have will be big enough to keep your belongings safe when you hold them with the ceramic saddles.

Ceramic supper intalox saddles are again suited for heat transfer applications. We ensure that the ceramic saddles are made in such a way that you can use them even on hot items without causing any havoc.

Ceramic saddles are commonly used in corrosive atmospheres and in cases of heat transfer. However, there are other various applications of ceramic saddles.

For instance, ceramic saddles can be used in RTO systems such as in a recycling tower due to its excellent heat and acid resistance. This is also why ceramic acids are suitable for use in heat exchange, acids, gases, chemicals among others.

They can also be used in the drying columns, cooling towers, scrubbing towels, acidifier columns and the absorbing columns all in the chemical industry. Ceramic saddles are also useful in other industries such as the oxygen-producing industry, coal gas industry, and metallurgy industry among others.

Ceramic intalox saddles are also used in producing acetic acid by rectifying and absorbing the columns. They’re also used for drying in industries such as fertilizer and chemical.

They are also used in the cooling tower and absorbing tower in the fields of petrochemical and coal gas among other industries.

Ceramic saddles packing is properly done and delivered in containers with good load capacity. For instance, they can come in plastic 25 kg bags put on pallets with film.

This will have a container load capacity of about 20 m3 or 40m3. We can also use cartons put on pallets with films.

These, just like the plastic bags, will have a container load capacity of about 20m3 or 40 m3. This helps to ensure that they are packaged in the best way possible and do not cause any problems due to the ceramic tower packing system.

We also use super bags put on pallet not to mention wooden cases to ensure that all packaging is perfect.

We also have a specific delivery time for t500 ceramic saddles after you have ordered them. For instance, you may receive your order within seven working days if it has a loading capacity of about 20 m3.

However, if your container load capacity is about 40 m3, delivery time extends to 10 working days. This means that your delivery time depends on how much the ceramic saddles weigh.
