<strong>Icosit</strong> ® TW 1<br />
2-component, solvent free epoxy coating for corrosion protection of drinking water supply<br />
systems.<br />
Product<br />
description<br />
Economically, higl mechanically resistant, 2-component, solvent free epoxy resincoating<br />
system.<br />
Fields of application: Heavy duty, high-build system for internal lining of steel and concrete pipes (nominal width ><br />
300), tanks, vessels and equipment e.g. filter shells, penstocks and fittings in the drinking<br />
water field.<br />
<strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1 conforms with the German UBA –guideline for drinking water and is tested<br />
according to DVGW W 270. Test reports are available upon request.<br />
Properties: A dry film thickness of up to max. 750 microns per operation can be achieved (Nominal<br />
450 microns).<br />
Product data<br />
The fully cured coating is slightly tough elastic, is mechanically-, shock- and impact resistant<br />
and physiologically inoffensive.<br />
Colour shades: Approx. RAL 1013, approx. RAL 5015 and approx. RAL 7032.<br />
In case of prolonged exposure to UV light, <strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1 will yellow and chalk slightly.<br />
Because of the raw materials used, slight batch to batch colour variations are unavoidable.<br />
Packaging: <strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1: 12 kg and 3 kg units.<br />
Thinner K: 25, 10 and 3 litre units. (for cleaning purposes only)<br />
Shelf life: In originally sealed containers in a cool and dry environment: min. 2 years.<br />
Systems<br />
Coating systems: Airless spraying 1 x 450 microns <strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1<br />
roller coating 3 x 150 microns <strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1<br />
In case of filigree constructions an additional application is recommended.<br />
Surface Preparation: Steel:<br />
Blast cleaning to Sa 2½ according to EN ISO 12944, part 4, free from dirt, oil and grease.<br />
Stainless steel and aluminium:<br />
Increase surface profile by sweep blasting

Hints on application<br />
Preparation of<br />
material:<br />
Temperature:<br />
Dry heat up to approx. + 100°C,<br />
Damp heat and warm water up to approx. + 40°C.<br />
Stir Component A very thoroughly using an electric stirrer. Add component B and mix both<br />
components very thoroughly for at least 3 minutes by means of an electric stirrer (including<br />
sides and bottom of the container). Fill mixed material into a clean container and mix again.<br />
Mixed material must have a uniform colour.<br />
Important: DO NOT THIN !<br />
Application method: The method of application has a major effect on achieving uniform thickness and appearance.<br />
Spray application will give the best results. The indicated dry film thickness is easily<br />
achieved by airless spray and by brush. Adding solvents reduces the sag resistance and the<br />
dry film thickness. In case of application by roller or brush, additional applications may become<br />
necessary to achieve the required coating thickness, depending on type of construction,<br />
site conditions, colour shade etc. Prior to major coating operations a test application on<br />
site may be useful to ensure the selected application method will provide the requested results.<br />
Application<br />
temperature:<br />
(material and surface)<br />
Airless-spray:<br />
Efficient airless equipment. Gun pressure min. 200 bar; bore of nozzle 0,48 – 0,58 mm<br />
(0,019 – 0,023 inch), spray angle 40° – 60°; diameter of hoses min. 8 mm (⅜ inch).<br />
The use of an inline heater is necessary. The use of flow heater is necessary.<br />
Brush or roller:<br />
Because of short pot life we recommend the use of our smaller (3 kg) units for applications<br />
by brush and roller.<br />
surface: min. +15°C<br />
material: min. +15°C<br />
Potlife: at 20°C approx. 25 minutes<br />
at 30°C approx. 15 minutes<br />
at 40°C approx. 10 minutes<br />
Important: When potlife is exceeded, material remnants react under<br />
the development of heat and foaming and can flow over<br />
the pail rim. Do not close lid firmly on pails<br />
containing mixed material !<br />

Important notice<br />
Precautionary<br />
Measures:<br />
Contact with drinking water only after the material is fully cured to avoid contamination.<br />
Prior to use of the coated pipes / vessels etc., apply to local and drinking water regulations<br />
for proper Purification Treatments and desinfection.<br />
Thinner K<br />
Please observe safety instructions on container labels and local regulations.<br />
Dangerous Goods regulations have to be followed.<br />
During application in closed rooms, pits and shafts etc., sufficient ventilation must be provided.<br />
Keep away open light, including welding.<br />
In poorly lit rooms only electric safety lamps are permitted. The installed ventilation equipment<br />
must be spark-proof.<br />
In a liquid, or not fully cured state ,both <strong>Icosit</strong> TW 1 and Thinner K contaminate water and<br />
should not be allowed to enter drains or be spilled onto open ground. All spillages and liquid<br />
waste must be removed according to local Health and Safety regulations.<br />
