GRP instrument enclosure for offshore applications
INTERTEC-Hess
INTERTEC instrument enclosures are made of long glass fibre reinforced polyester (GRP) in sheet moulded compound design.
This high-tech material has many advantages:
- strength that almost matches stainless steel (non-reinforced plastic material has approx. 100 times less stability)
- the weight of stainless steel is 4 times greater
- by increasing wall thickness and optimum fibre alignment the enclosure can be made with extra reinforcing at the edges
- Corrosion-free
- Excellent chemical resistance
