Power Generation Cladding Applications

Burners   Conforma Clad-protected burner components last longer and sustain maximum performance levels by maintaining critical component geometries for extended run times. Our cloth delivery system enables densely packed tungsten carbide to be uniformly applied to complex geometries, providing a protective barrier that wears at a uniform and predictable rate.   Common Conforma Clad Burner Components:    Spreaders Flame Stabilizer Rings Spreader Support Tubes & Sleeves Nozzles Diffusers Primary Air Vanes Directional Vanes Splitters                       Features & Benefits Increased Productivity - Extended burner component life results in fewer equipment shutdowns and component changes, lengthening run-times between maintenance windows. Enhanced Burner Performance - Decreased burner component wear leads to better NOx performance, leaving you with more credits for sale. Superior Erosion Resistance - One sixteenth inch (1.5 mm) of Conforma Clad’s wear protection performs FIFTEEN TIMES BETTER against erosive wear than an equivalent layer of typical overlays and FIFTY TIMES BETTER than plain carbon steel. And it is up to TWENTY-FIVE TIMES MORE EROSION RESISTANT than high-temperature stainless steels. Proven Results - Conforma Clad’s premium technology has been used in coal-fired power plants for more than 15 years, extending the life of burners, gas fans, thermowells, ash conveyance equipment, pitot tubes, pulverizer components and other plant equipment. Burner Component Cladding Specifications Substrates  Cladding can be applied to most carbon steels, stainless steels and alloy steels.  Temperature Continuous operation at temperatures up to 1900 degrees F (1038 degrees C) with nominal performance impact. Able to withsatnd transients in excess of 2000 degree F. Compatibility Compatible with chemicals commonly found in coal and fly ash, including hydrochloric acid, hydrogen fluoride and sulfuric acid.                       Download more information about our burner components.   Custom Burner Solutions Conforma Clad will work closely with you to develop a wear solution for your specific burner type. In addition, our brazed tungsten carbide wear protection can be applied to a variety of industrial components that are affected by abrasion, corrosion, erosion or thermal shock.. We produce severe wear solutions for pump shaft seal sleeves, pump impellers, direct clad fan components, fan wheel and housing wear liners, burner tips, burner tube liners, pulverizer components and conveyance equipment, among others. Our team of application and material engineers is available to evaluate your application and recommend a cost effective solution today.     How to Order For questions, request for quotations, or to place an order, please contact our Power Generation Application Engineering team at 888.289.4590 (toll free) or 812.948-2118   We will need to following information to process your quotation: Component drawing or the actual component, along with dimensions (length, width, height, OD, ID) Substrate or material type.
