What kind of sealing strip is both environmentally friendly and sealed?

Gaskets play a crucial role in sealing and preventing leaks in industrial equipment and pipelines. However, due to factors such as medium pressure, temperature changes, material aging, and incorrect selection and installation, gaskets may experience leakage.

 

Leakage not only leads to energy and material waste, but may also pose a threat to equipment safety and the environment. Therefore, understanding the causes, manifestations, and solutions of gasket leakage is crucial for ensuring the safety and reliability of equipment operation.

 

1、 Reasons for gasket leakage

1. Damaged or aged gasket: During long-term use, the gasket may be affected by corrosion, wear, and pressure from the medium, leading to rupture or aging, resulting in leakage.

2. Incorrect material selection: Choosing unsuitable gasket materials that cannot adapt to the chemical properties, temperature, and pressure of the medium can easily lead to leakage.

3. Improper installation and tightening: During the installation process of the gasket, if the tightening force is uneven or insufficient, it can lead to leakage.

 

2、 Symptoms of gasket leakage

1. Leakage point: Leakage usually forms obvious leakage points around the gasket, which can be confirmed by observation or instrument detection.

2. Leakage and dripping: gasket leakage may manifest in the form of leakage or dripping, which may cause moisture, oil stains, or chemical residue on the surface of the equipment.

3. Pressure and temperature changes: Leakage of gaskets can cause changes in the pressure and temperature of the medium in the equipment, which can be detected through the equipment monitoring system or observation by operators.
