Problem
The solvent extraction and electrowinning process used for refining copper includes significant concentrations of sulfuric acid. Metal cable tray components do not perform well in these operations resulting in excessive maintenance, replacement costs and production downtime.
Application Summary
Cable Management components must have:
- Ability to withstand tough operating conditions
- Ability to handle cable and other design loads over its service life
- UV protection for long service life
Solution
Offering superior combination of corrosion resistance, structural performance, and UV protection, Enduro’s FRP/GRP cable management products are ideally suited for these challenging conditions. The material’s premium grade, isophthalic polyester or vinyl ester resin system is resistant to chemical attack and continuous wet conditions and ensures long-term performance. The peaked covers added protection for cables where needed eliminating product building up and unnecessary weight to the cable tray system. Its UV stabilized resin ensures extended color retention and service life.
