PROBLEM
A tank engine was removed and needed to be preped for long term storage before it would be needed for use in the future
SOLUTION AND APPLICATION
- The engine was cleaned and degreased with VpCI®-414 to prepare the engine for preservation.
- VpCI 2. ®-329 was poured into the oil system. M640L was added to the cooling system and VpCI®-705 was added to the fuel system. After running the engine for 60 minutes, the above mentioned systems were preserved. To protect the engine cylinders, and internal engine components a mixture of oil and VpCI®-329 was used. VpCI®-170 was applied to the air intake and exhaust systems (after engine was cooled). VpCI®- 238 was then sprayed on all electrial equipment and contacts.
- External components of engine were coated with 3. VpCI®-368M temporary liquid coating for outdoor, multi-metal protection.
- Engine was completely wrapped in vapor phase 4. corrosion inhibiting EcoWeave® woven polyethylene fabric providing superior strength and tear resistance
