Manitowoc, Wis. – Heresite, a leader in the development of thin film corrosion resistant coatings, has launched HereShield, a low-VOC direct to metal coating. HereShield offers multiple application options including spray, dipping, or flooding. It exhibits excellent corrosion resistance, UV resistance and weathering qualities, along with good adhesion to ferrous
Manitowoc, Wis. (September 20, 2019) – Heresite, a leader in the development of thin film corrosion resistant coatings, has been selected as one of 5 speakers at Hot Ideas and Cool Solutions, the 10th Annual NARSA Heavy Duty Heating and Cooling Conference to be held on October 3 – 4,
HVAC systems are used in places where people need protection from the elements, or the environment must be stabilized to provide general cooling or ideal conditions for food preparation or pharmaceuticals. However, while air handling units (AHUs) benefit the people who live or work in the improved environment they create,
Learn more about Choosing An HVAC-R Coating for Marine Environments » Selecting the correct corrosion standard is an important part of specifying HVAC coil coatings, particularly in environments where an extreme coastal HVAC coating is needed. For over 100 years, ASTM B-117 had been widely recognized as the “gold standard”
Manitowoc, Wis. (April 29, 2019) – Heresite, a leader in the development of thin film corrosion resistant coatings, has been listed in The American Institute of Architects (AIA) MasterSpec Construction Specification Resource. MasterSpec® is the industry-leading building and construction specification resource. Specifications are written by professional specifiers, architects, and engineers,
Coating extremely large HVAC-R units or coils can be difficult. Their size (both dimensions and weight) makes the units/coils difficult to move and many coating applicators find it difficult to thoroughly apply coatings to protect them from corrosive elements. A large HVAC-R unit/coil is clearly a big investment, which makes
To further expand on Heresite’s expansive chemical resistance guide, P-413 coated steel, copper, and aluminum panels were placed in a municipal wastewater treatment facility to simulate sewage fumes. Panels were placed at the point where raw sewage is pumped into the facility and screened; this results in significant hydrogen sulfide
ASTM B-117 was the first nationally recognized salt spray standard. Published in 1939, this salt spray test is widespread and often recognized as the “gold standard” in corrosion testing. However, ISO 20340 offers a more realistic and updated method of testing, representing a significant improvement over ASTM B-117. When the
Heresite, a leader in the development of thin film corrosion resistant coatings, has launched HL-300, a robust hydrophilic coating for HVAC-R condensing equipment. The topcoat is designed to improve condensate management for reduced water carryover to allow for higher fan speeds on HVAC-R equipment. “Our customers came to Heresite for
HVAC-R coating chemical resistance is often tested using fume exposure. While this method of testing can provide information on the anticipated level of protection for HVAC-R equipment, in certain applications, spot/direct exposure tests may provide better information about your equipment’s longevity in real-world conditions. It is important to conduct spot/direct
