The benefits of Rilsan® coatings in piping system for fluid transportation and treatment Rilsan® coatings have been used in water treatment plants and in fluid transportation system since 1967.Rilsan® offers unique benefits by protecting metal parts from corrosion, mechanical impact and chemicalattack, while preserving water quality.

Preserving water qualityRilsan® coatings meet the requirements of the various regulations regardingthe suitability of materials in contact with drinking water.

They have been granted official approval in many countries:

• France (circular DGS/VS4/N°99.217)

• United Kingdom (WRAS and DWI certifications)

• Germany (KTW and W270 certifications)

• Netherlands (ATA certification)

• United States (NSF61 listing)

• Japan (Ministry of Health)

• Australia (AS4020 certification)

• Russia (Ministry of Health)

Protecting parts during handling and storage

Rilsan® coatings possess remarkable physical and mechanical performance, in particular:

• good weathering resistance

• good thermal stability and low moisture pick-up

• outstanding impact resistance

• excellent flexibility

Excellent durability and lowermaintenance costsRilsan® provides excellent protection against corrosion,

mechanical impact and chemical attack for both newand refurbished parts of all shapes (pipes, flanges,cross fittings, elbow joints, 4-way joints, Y-joints, etc.).It protects steel, cast iron and aluminum fromthe harshest attack.

Resistance to the harshest attackRilsan® coatings feature remarkable resistance to:

• effluents and sea water

• salt spray

• cathodic delamination

• chlorine, chlorides, hypochlorites, hyposulphites, ozone, hydroxidesand other chemical agents used in water treatment, purificationand desalination plants, as well as in cleaning ultrafiltration,microfiltration and reverse osmosis membranes.

These characteristics ensure that Rilsan® coatings fulfillthe specification requirements set out in French standards NFA49713and NFA49714, European standard EN10310, American standardAWWA C224-01, Australian standard ANZ4158-2003, Dutch standardKIWA K-759, and Japanese standard JWWA WSP067-2001.

With its excellent resistance to a wide range of extreme and repeatedexposures, Rilsan® provides a technical solution in applications thatare too harsh for most stainless steel grades.

Examples include desalination plants, and membrane filtration skidsin which the membranes require cleaning with very strong chemical agents.

Saving energy and preserving the properties• A smooth surface with low roughness helps reduce linear pressure loss while ensuring effective pumping

• Reduces fouling caused by the surface adhesion of organic and inorganic substances

• Exceptional wear resistance

• Exceptional cavitation resistance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance
