Uncoupled
CuNi90/10 31 µm/year
Titanium 2 µm/year
Carbon Steel 330 µm/year
Couples
CuNi 90/10 (208 µm/y) – Titanium (2 µm/y)
CuNi 90/10 (3 µm/y) – Carbon Steel (787 µm/y)
The safe solution for the main problem of CuNi90/10 coupled with
titanium plate coolers
Two problems
1. Galvanic corrosion
2. Erosion by turbulences
Solution
Combination of insulating
flange connection and
powder coating
Shrinking
Hose
THE SOLUTION Lose Flange Titanium
Plastic Disk Cooler
Washer
Screw
Pipe
Inner Flange
Powder Sealing
Coating
4. To avoid galvanic corrosion we recommend pipe clamps with rubber or ceramic inlays
