Dual Expanding Plug Valve
| 18
The elastomer sealing-system is a crucial part of the valve which may be subject
to toxic or aggressive media and high pressures or temperatures. To secure the
proper function of this part and ensure a long service-live of the sealing-system,
special moldings have been created to ensure an optimum vulcanizing-process
of the elastomer on-to the metal surface of the slip.
This vulcanizing-process becomes even more crucial when highly chemical resistant elastomers are required due to toxic and
aggressivemedia. The right selectionof the elastomer is vital for theproper functionof the seal, our highly experiencedengineers
can help and advise you with the selection.
Multi-seal ERT – suitable for MTBE
Fuels with high contents of solvents, MTBE or other additives can cause deterioration of the elastomer seal. Together with the
Elastomer Research & Development engineers of the ERIKS group, the VE
®
valves meets these challenges with it’s new and
innovative sealing solutions.
Research Laboratory Chemical-Resistance
The engineers at “Elastomer Research Laboratory” of ERIKS, can help you to provide a custom-made sealing solution. Providing
us with a sample of your media, our laboratory engineers can determine and advise you the most suitable elastomer solution.
