Case Study: a copper mine achieves reliable freeze protection and process maintenance with Valin Corporation's turnkey heat trace solution

Copper Mine builds first MAP facility with Valin and cuts production interruptions

The customer, a copper mine, required a complete turnkey heat trace solution for its new molybdenum autoclave process facility to ensure its critical fluid processes would operate without interruption. Valin Corporation provided the total solution, which included engineering, design, and materials from Chromalox.

Valin implemented the solution by first educating the mine's engineering firm on heat trace specification. They then partnered with Chromalox and Insulators, Inc. to provide a full package of heat trace, controls, and insulation, including installation. The result is a reliable system that will save the mine time and money by preventing production losses, and the facility will benefit from low energy consumption and a heat recovery system.
