Saint-Gobain utilizes solid cast ceramic shapes from our Cryston® and Norfrax® to line the equipment that transports the raw materials to the chlorinator, including orifices, spools, tees, reducers, elbows, laterals, and feed nozzles.  The ceramic solution replaces steel fittings giving a much longer wear life and can be designed to easily match up to existing fittings.  The casting of ceramics eliminates the number of seams to offer improved wear performance versus solutions with multi joint designs.

These sleeves are manufactured from Cryston® and offer extended life versus cast metal shapes.  The sleeves are used in the critical flow areas of the pump which is used to feed the raw material to the chlorinator.  Typically three Cryston® sleeves are used in each pump

These nozzle liners are typically produced from Norfrax® RB and are used to connect the feed piping system through the refractory lining.  When produced from ceramics such as Norfrax® RB, these nozzle liners can extend through the refractory lining to the hot face brick lining.

Produced from Saint-Gobain’s fused cast ceramic, ZAC®, the nozzle block assemblies can replace traditional refractory linings offering superior wear life due to the material performance as well as the dimensional quality of the product.  The ZAC® blocks can be utilized in the high wear areas including the fluidized floors, man-way doors, feed nozzles, and high wear areas across from the feed nozzles

Depending on equipment sizes, Saint-Gobain can design a monolithic liner or a traditional brick design to line the inside of the various processing equipment.  These linings are designed with perpendicular seams to improve the overall performance.  Solid cylinders can also be incorporated in the inlet and outlet nozzles to reduce the overall number of joints in the lining system.

Saint-Gobain provides both Cryston® and Hexoloy® liners for various configurations of fittings in the cooling ponds.  These fittings are lined with ceramics to help improve overall wear performance as well as help with heat transfer in the piping systems.  Inlet transitions can be incorporated to maximize flow when using a square back elbow in the transitions. 

Titanium dioxide is milled to size utilizing high efficiency micronizers or jet mills.  These mills are traditionally supplied in carbon steel.  Utilizing Saint-Gobain’s Cryston® or Norfrax® RB, manufacturers can increase their mill life and reduce the possibly for contamination.  Saint-Gobain can provide the mill liners in one piece designs for many different sized configurations.
