Abstract

The wide range of steel pipe sections with complex geometry, as well as that of their cast iron components (fittings, valves and pumps) poses a real problem to installation designers who must achieve a consistent level of long‐term corrosion resistance. In that case, Rilsan, Polyamide 11 coating gives the opportunity to engineering companies and subcontractors who are concerned both with the corrosion protection of pipes and with the quality of drinking water supplies to solve complex problems, such as the pipes which equip water treatment, purification and pumping stations. The application of specification and standards such as WIS 4‐52‐01(*) and NF A 49713 is the key for a long‐term solution.
