Mondi Pipe and Fittings

Bay Port Valve & Fitting is the exclusive stocking distributor of Mondi™ Acid Piping products for the state of Florida.  Mondi™ is a special ductile iron with improved metallurgy developed for concentrated 92-99% sulfuric acid at temperatures up to 300° F (149° C).  Mondi™ piping systems are the industry standard for reliable performance in sulfuric acid service since 1983.  Proven long operating life with more than double the service life over standard metallurgy ductile iron reduces maintenance and plant down-time.

Meehanite Grids, Division Plates And Support Columns

Bay Port Valve & Fitting can supply grids, division plates and support columns in Meehanite alloys. These are made in Meehanite HS and GE 30 for the passes in your converter to the dimensions required. Most patterns are available for existing converter designs.  Meehanite HS is used for temperatures up to 1800° F (984° C). We recommend Meehanite HS grids and columns for Pass 1 conditions to minimize heat scaling, warping and bending.  Our converter internals provide many years of excellent service at the operating temperatures and S0₂ - S0₃ gas conditions in each of the converter passes. This results in reduced maintenance and improved plant operation. Converter internals are made to order at an economical cost and within a timely schedule.
