Steam Traps at Salt Plant

A salt plant called on Maple Grove Enterprises to apply Mascoat Ceramic Cover, an insulation coating, to their steam traps. Before the cover was applied, the surface of the traps would heat to over 300°F, a safety hazard. The ceramic cover now prevents the traps from heating over 120°F.
