Safety and Reliability in Turbine Sealing Compounds By Satish Agrawal Dated: Dec 10, 2011 When you choose Birkosit Sealing Compound, you choose safety and reliability over price ! When you choose Birkosit Sealing Compound, you choose safety and reliability over price ! Safety - what are we talking about ? 1/ Birkosit does not present any significant danger for the environment. It is not known to contain any hazardous substance that is harmful to the environment. 2/ Birkosit is non-flammable. Birkosit has no flashpoint. Check competitive products. They contain 10-12% by volume of methylated spirits and have flash point of 14-20 deg C due to the solvents. Competitive products have over 25% Volatile Contents. This is not safe to handle and is needs special protective clothing. Storage of competitive material also needs special precautions as they are highly inflammable. 3/ Birkosit contains linseed oil. The boiled linseed oil helps in better sealing properties and has been used in turbine repairs since decades. There is no evaporation of material or vapours. In contrast, competitive material containing solvents have a chance for solvent evaporation which is not safe and needs addition of solvents again. Competitive products therefore they have a low shelf life. Birkosit has a very long shelf life, virtually unlimited. Due to reasons we can not control, we still give a guaranteed storage life of 5 years from manufacture. What makes Birkosit more reliable than any other sealing compound ? Birkosit Sealing Compound is the only product developed in co-operation with Siemens, a turbine maker. There is actually no other sealing compound worldwide designed specifically for turbine flange sealing ! Today, Siemens group and power stations with Siemens turbine constitute 50% of Birkosit sales worldwide. Birkosit Dichtungskitt is the only product that has a service life of 10 years after application. Birkosit is the only product that has a temperature resistance of 900 deg C and is only product designed to meet the specifications for the next generation of SST steam turbines and SGT gas turbines. We can go on and on, on the unique advantages when you choose this reliable product for its performance, rather than choose a sealing product based on price ! Know more at www.india.birkosit.com for greater safety and reliability - Use Birkosit Dichtungskitt if you make turbines to improve your product reliability - Recommend Birkosit Dichtungskitt to your customers buying your turbines - Power stations can improve safety and reliability when they chose Birkosit during erection and overhauls
