I-Monel K400 kanye ne-K500 zombili zingamalungu omndeni odumile we-Monel alloy, kodwa zinezici ezihlukile ezizihlukanisayo, okwenza ngayinye ifanelekele izinhlelo zokusebenza ezahlukene. Ukuqonda lo mehluko kubalulekile konjiniyela, abakhiqizi, kanye nabathandi bezinto ezibonakalayo abafuna ukwenza izinqumo zokukhetha izinto ezinolwazi.

Umehluko oyinhloko usekwakhekeni kwamakhemikhali awo.I-MonelI-K400 yakhiwe ngokuyinhloko nge-nickel (cishe i-63%) kanye nethusi (28%), kanye nenani elincane lensimbi kanye ne-manganese. Lokhu kuhlanganiswa kwe-alloy okulula kodwa okusebenzayo kunegalelo ekumelaneni kwayo nokugqwala okuhle kanye nezakhiwo ezinhle zemishini ekushiseni kwegumbi. Ngokuphambene nalokho, i-Monel K500 yakha phezu kwesisekelo se-K400 ngokungeza i-aluminium kanye ne-titanium. Lezi zinto ezengeziwe zivumela i-K500 ukuthi idlule enkambisweni yokuqina kwemvula, okuthuthukisa kakhulu amandla ayo kanye nobunzima bayo uma kuqhathaniswa ne-K400.

Lokhu kungafani kokwakheka kuthinta ngqo izakhiwo zazo zemishini. I-Monel K400 inikeza ukuguquguquka okuhle kanye nokwakheka okuhle, okwenza kube lula ukwakheka ngezimo ezahlukahlukene. Inamandla okudonswa aphansi, afanele ukusetshenziswa lapho ukuguquguquka kanye nokulula komshini kuyizinto eziza kuqala, njengasekukhiqizweni kwezinhlelo zamapayipi olwandle kanye nezingxenye ezimelana nokugqwala ezisetshenziswa kabanzi. I-Monel K500, ngemva kokuqina kwemvula, ibonisa amandla aphezulu okudonswa kanye nokukhiqiza. Ingamelana nokucindezeleka okukhulu kwemishini, okwenza ibe yindawo efanele ukusetshenziswa okudinga izingxenye eziqinile, njengemiphini yokupompa, iziqu zevalvu, kanye nezinamathiselo emishinini esindayo kanye nemikhumbi yasolwandle.

Ukumelana nokugqwala kungenye indawo lapho ama-alloy amabili abonisa khona umehluko. Kokubili i-Monel K400 kanye ne-K500inikeza ukumelana okuhle kakhulu nezinhlobo eziningi zezinto ezigqwalisayo, okuhlanganisa amanzi olwandle, ama-asidi athambile, nama-alkali. Kodwa-ke, ngenxa yamandla ayo aphezulu kanye nokwakheka kwengqimba ye-oxide evikelayo eqinile ngesikhathi sokuqina kwemvula, i-Monel K500 ivame ukubonisa ukumelana okuthuthukisiwe kokuqhekeka kokugqwala kokucindezeleka, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezinokuqukethwe okuphezulu kwe-chloride. Lokhu kwenza i-K500 ibe ukukhetha okuthandwayo kwezingxenye ezingagcini nje ngokuvezwa ezintweni ezigqwalisayo kodwa futhi ezidinga ukubekezelela ukucindezeleka komshini ngesikhathi esisodwa.

Ngokuphathelene nezicelo, i-Monel K400 ivame ukusetshenziswa embonini yasolwandle ezintweni ezifana nama-condenser, ama-heat exchanger, kanye namapayipi amanzi olwandle, lapho ukumelana kwayo nokugqwala kanye nokwakheka kwayo kubhekwa khona. Iphinde isetshenziswe embonini yamakhemikhali ekuphatheni amakhemikhali angenalo ulaka. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-Monel K500 isetshenziswa ezicelweni ezidinga kakhulu. Emkhakheni kawoyela negesi, isetshenziselwa amathuluzi okudonsa phansi kanye nemishini yangaphansi kolwandle, lapho amandla aphezulu kanye nokumelana nokugqwala kubalulekile khona. Emkhakheni wezindiza, izingxenye ze-K500 zingatholakala ezingxenyeni ezidinga amandla kanye nokumelana nokugqwala kwemvelo.
