Customized Heat Exchanger Gasket Industry PHE Gasket Pad Safety

Product Description

To confirm the operating pressure when choosing a gasket for a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE), follow these steps:

Review System Specifications: Refer to the system specifications or engineering documents to identify the maximum operating pressure the gasket will be subjected to.

Consult Manufacturer: Contact the gasket manufacturer or supplier to confirm the pressure rating of the gasket material you are considering. They can provide guidance on the gasket's suitability for the specified operating pressure.

Consider Safety Margins: Ensure that the selected gasket can handle pressure spikes or fluctuations that may occur during normal operation. It's advisable to choose a gasket with a pressure rating higher than the system's maximum operating pressure to account for safety margins.

Testing and Validation: If necessary, conduct pressure testing or validation to verify that the selected gasket can withstand the anticipated operating pressure without leaks or failures.

By following these steps and ensuring that the chosen gasket's pressure rating aligns with the system's operating pressure requirements, you can select a gasket that will provide reliable sealing performance in your Plate Heat Exchanger system.

Heat Exchanger Gasket/Pad for Sondex Plate Heat Exchangers:

1. Heat exchanger gaskets should resist deterioration or damage when exposed to the chemicals present in the fluids being processed. This chemical resistance ensures the longevity of the gasket and the overall reliability of the heat exchanger.
2. Gaskets must be capable of withstanding high temperatures without compromising their integrity. This is crucial for applications where the heat exchanger operates at elevated temperatures.
3. Gaskets may need to comply with industry standards and regulations. This ensures that they meet specific performance and safety criteria for use in various industrial applications.
4. Gaskets can be customized to meet specific requirements of different heat exchanger models. Customization may involve variations in size, shape, and material composition based on the unique needs of the application.
5. To ensure reliable performance, heat exchanger gaskets undergo quality testing during the manufacturing process. This includes checks for dimensional accuracy, material integrity, and sealing capability.

Gasket Material:

Manufacturing process of plate heat exchanger gaskets.

1. The first is the mixing process of rubber compounding, that is, mixing various raw and auxiliary materials according to the formula requirements;
2. The second is the step of forming the rubber material blank, that is, the rubber material is made into rubber strips through extruder equipment;
3. The third is the compression molding process, where the unvulcanized rubber strip is placed into the cavity of the hot mold, the mold is closed for vulcanization, and the rubber sealing gasket is formed in the press equipment;
4. The fourth is post-vulcanization, that is, the molded and vulcanized gasket is placed in an oven in a static state to finally complete the vulcanization;
5. The fifth is finished product inspection, that is, sampling some finished products for finished product testing according to process standards.

Installation method

Plate heat exchanger sealing gaskets can be divided into 3 forms according to the installation method on the heat exchange plates:

1. Direct sticking type: After applying sealant on the sealing gasket, it is directly glued into the installation groove of the heat exchange plate.

2. Plastic nail inlaid type: The heat exchange plate is designed with assembly holes, and rubber nails are designed on the side of the sealing gasket. After the sealing gasket is placed in the installation slot, the rubber nails are embedded in the assembly holes.

3. Snap-on type: There are buckles on the side of the sealing gasket, and the buckles are used to buckle the sealing gasket onto the heat exchange plate.

The sealing gasket uses different types of rubber according to different media and operating temperatures.

Q&A

Q1: Does the gaskets product come with a warranty?

A1: Gasket are consumable accessories, and the replacement cycle is generally determined according to the specific conditions of use by the customer. It is related to the use environment, medium, temperature, etc. Usually we recommend purchasing more for replacement and backup purposes.
