DEC - Intumescent Epoxy for Passive Fire Protection
The Daken Epoxy Coating Shell (Intumescent "DEC Shells") Passive Fire Protection System is a robust high-performance product manufactured using high performance intumescent epoxy fire protection coatings. The system is a bespoke design to suit various Critical Process Control Equipment (CPCE) to allow the equipment to remain operable in the event of a fire. The base product can be found on offshore platforms, FPSOs, refineries, petrochemical plants, LNG terminals and LPG storage facilities across the world. The product is highly durable and is resistant to industrial environments including splash and spillage of chemicals. The Epoxy Enclosure Protection Systems can be customized to accommodate any geometric shapes to suit all valves, actuators, flanges, pipe supports, and steel structures. The system is completely removable and can be removed and re-fitted, if required.
Daken epoxy coating shell (DEC) passive fire protection system provides the solutions
Direct adhesive type - Direct bonding and application of Daken Epoxy Coating Shell (DEC) Passive Fire Protection System. In the Daken facility, the Daken epoxy intumescent coating is bonded directly to the surface of the Critical Process Control Equipment (CPCE). The result is a permanent adhesive layer that is durable and weather / chemical resistant.
Molded Shell - Daken assembles the module using prefabricated parts to suit the protected item, using die casting to create bespoke parts. The parts are then assembled and fitted to the protected item to form an epoxy coating shell.
Prefabricated modular type - Daken Epoxy Coating Shell (DEC) Passive Fire Protection Systems can be designed as a fully removable system that can be installed at site. The retro-fit design is compact and quick to install using quick-release toggle fasteners. The system is self-supporting and can be adjusted easily at site to allow for tubing and cables to exit.
Each bespoke design is specifically engineered to fit closely around the protected item using 3D modelling software to ensure a good fit-up and allowing for clash detection to avoid any issues during installation. Additional project documentation can also be accommodated including project specific Design Approval Documents (DAD’s) that are typically issued by Lloyds Register or other 3rd party certifying authorities.
