Even Superb materials as 254 SMO wear and tear, like today….

SMO254 is a high-alloy austenitic stainless steel developed for use in seawater and other aggressive chloride-bearing media. The steel is characterized by the following properties:

Excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, PRE = ≥42.5*
High resistance to general corrosion
High resistance to stress corrosion cracking
Higher strength than conventional austenitic stainless steels
Good weldability

Checking the condition of your Scrubber

Checking the condition of your Scrubber unit is of utmost importance in the maintenance program of your ship. Ask me for a sample Scrubber Survey per mail at ticco@ticco.nl The Shipowner, Fleet manager, Chief Engineer or Technical management then really understands the value of doing this.

Our surveys are a perfect base line registration after commissioning, at the end of the warranty period and as a yearly inspection.
