rouging in a WFI-storage tank Passivation: Get off to a good start

Rouging is a latent risk - from the very outset. That's why every new system should be professionally passivated, to delay the development of rouge for as long as possible. However, a successful procedure calls for a great deal of know-how and experience - assets that our staff can always offer.

Regular maintenance for lasting success

If you don't keep at it, you get rusty - that's the motto with rouge. Even after successful passivation, the protective layer of chromium oxide can be eaten away after a certain time. The tiresome consequence:
rouge can start to spread again.
So stay "on the ball" and have your system inspected and routinely maintained on a regular basis, at least once a year. Depending on the formation of the rouge, we recommend a derouging/repassivation process as part of a routine procedure defined by SOPs every 6 to 12 months. This will guarantee your system against serious formation of rouge as well as the latent damage and increased costs that can ensue. Risk analyses on this aspect can also be compiled.
