Sigma Thermal Process Bath Heater / Industrial Heat Exchanger
Project Phase: Pre-transit encapsulation for road, sea, and intermodal freight.
Objective: Protect critical components, internal systems, and precision-machined surfaces from moisture, corrosion, contamination, and transport damage before commissioning.
The Risks: Protecting Critical Process Equipment
Large process heaters are engineered to operate in demanding industrial environments, but getting them safely from the factory to site presents an entirely different challenge.
Without engineered containment, these assets are exposed to risks that can delay commissioning and increase project costs.
Moisture Damage
Moisture entering the unit can affect internal refractory linings, requiring lengthy drying procedures or repairs before the heater can be safely commissioned.
Corrosion of Critical Components
Machined flange faces and exposed steel surfaces are vulnerable to oxidation during transport and storage. Even minor corrosion can require costly cleaning or re-machining before installation.
Contamination
Road grime, dust, salt, insects, and airborne debris can enter burner assemblies and sensitive components, creating unnecessary maintenance before the equipment is ready for operation.
Environmental Exposure
Long-distance transport and outdoor storage expose equipment to UV, changing temperatures, humidity, and salt air, all of which can accelerate deterioration if left unprotected.
The Solution: Safe Seal Engineered Containment
Safe Seal creates a fully enclosed environmental barrier that protects industrial equipment throughout transport and storage.
Complete Weather Protection
Heat-welded shrink wrap forms a drum-tight enclosure that prevents moisture, dust, and debris from entering while eliminating wind flap during transport.
Corrosion Defence
Working alongside VCI corrosion protection systems where required, Safe Seal provides an additional physical barrier that helps preserve critical surfaces and sensitive equipment.
Temperature Stability
The reflective white film helps minimise heat build-up and reduces condensation caused by changing day and night temperatures.
Designed for Long-Term Protection
Where projects require extended storage or monitoring, customised access points can be incorporated without compromising the integrity of the containment system.
Stakeholder Benefit: Ready for Commissioning
Industrial process equipment represents a significant investment, and every delay to commissioning affects project schedules and budgets.
By protecting equipment throughout transport and storage, Safe Seal helps ensure assets arrive clean, dry, and ready for installation, reducing the need for site recovery, cleaning, corrosion remediation, or unnecessary maintenance.
Because protecting the asset doesn't end at the factory—it ends when it's ready to perform.
