An impeller manufactured from Reaction-Bonded Silicon Carbide (RBSiC) is a high-tech product designed for the most severe operating conditions. Thanks to its unique combination of exceptional wear resistance, high strength, and superior corrosion resistance, it is an ideal solution for pumps handling abrasive and corrosive media.
Key Advantages and Characteristics:
Exceptional Impact Resistance: RBSiC possesses high strength and hardness, making it resistant to mechanical shock and dynamic loads, unlike more brittle traditional ceramic materials.
High Wear Resistance: Silicon carbide's hardness is second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride. This provides unparalleled resistance to abrasive wear, significantly increasing the impeller's service life compared to metal counterparts.
Superior Corrosion Resistance: The material is inert to a wide range of aggressive chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and solvents, even at high temperatures.
Lightweight and High Stiffness: RBSiC has low density and a high modulus of elasticity. This allows for the creation of lightweight and rigid impellers, reducing inertia and energy consumption, while minimizing vibration.
Stability at High Temperatures: It retains its mechanical properties and dimensional stability at temperatures up to 1380°C, making it suitable for high-temperature process applications.
Complex Geometry: The reaction bonding manufacturing technology enables the production of complex-shaped products with high precision and virtually no shrinkage, ensuring optimal hydrodynamic performance.
Areas of Application:
Chemical Industry: Pumping abrasive slurries, acids, alkalis.
Pulp and Paper Production: Pumping pulp, abrasive sludges.
Mining and Mineral Processing: Pumps for hydraulic transport, slurry transfer.
Wastewater Treatment: Aggressive and abrasive media in water treatment systems.
Energy Sector: Demanding applications in Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) systems.
Conclusion:
The impact-resistant impeller made of Reaction-Bonded Silicon Carbide is a modern, durable, and reliable solution that significantly improves efficiency, reduces maintenance costs, and extends equipment run times between overhauls in the most severe operating conditions.
