Large HIP vessels as part of our standard program
Quintus has extremely large HIP equipment as part of our standard program. This helps us keep short lead times and ensures a quick and timely start-up of production. We also have the capability of creating custom-made large equipment to meet specific requirements as needed.
Productivity
Cooling of a full workload from 1,260 to 300°C takes less than 30 minutes in a large HIP. In an equivalent HIP system, natural cooling can take from 8 to 12 hours, well over half the typical cycle duration. This means that a Quintus HIP has significantly higher productivity.
An inherently safe design
It is widely acknowledged to be the safest, most reliable and durable pressure containment system ever designed. The vessel meets “leak-rather-than-burst” criteria as defined in the ASME code, and typically has a calculated fatigue life of more than 20,000 cycles.
Quick time from order to revenue
Quintus equipment is space-saving and cost effective on a complete plant investment level. Building and civil work are simplified allowing optimal plant layout and a cost efficient production entity with short commissioning times.
A lighter option
The load-absorbing wire used in the wire-wound technology used by Quintus Technologies has a tensile strength twice that of a forging, making the system lightweight and compact, with a savings in weight up to 50% compared to monolithic forged vessels.
