Certified O-rings for valves

Written by Marketing Digital on 17/01/2018. Posted in Gama juntas tóricas.

Valve O-rings are a sealing solution for the stem of a spindle valve, as we explained in another article published in our blog under the name “Some valve sealing solutions”. Depending on the valve's service, its documentation will be required to include certificates of critical components for the valve's operation, as is the case, for example, with elastomer O-rings. It is common in the oil and gas industry that it is mandatory that the O-rings for valves to be used in the oil and gas industry must have the following certificates: "O-rings for valves"...

Elements for vibration isolation on machine tools

Written by Marketing Digital on 10/01/2018. Posted in Aislamiento de vibraciones.

All industrial machines, regardless of their type, must be properly isolated. To isolate a machine means to protect all its components from the element that emits the vibration (motor, compressor, pump, etc.) and from other elements or machines that are located around it. To achieve this, the designer must take into account the location of the elements that will prevent the passage of mechanical waves to the rest of the equipment, thus avoiding possible damage to machines, people and products. Determining factors in vibration isolation The factors that...

Some valve sealing solutions

Written by Marketing Digital on 20/12/2017. Posted in Estanqueidad estática.

Depending on the nature of the fluid flowing through a pipeline, you must choose one valve or another to manage it along the line. Thus, you can install ball valves, shut-off valves, angle seat valves, butterfly valves and flap valves, among others. Both the type of valve and the working fluid determine which engineered sealing solution should be chosen to prevent possible leakage episodes. These solutions are based on O-rings, flat gaskets, profiles, graphite shaped rings, gaskets and energized gaskets. Sealing solutions...

Use of Gylon® seals in engines

In the engineering design phase of an installation, the largest number of scenarios in which the installation will have to operate are usually considered and the possible problems that may arise in each of them are analyzed. The sealing of electric and hydraulic motors is not guaranteed at 100% when conventional seals are used. It is an attractive solution in terms of cost and performance, but these types of seals have limitations in terms of the maximum speed and pressure they can withstand and sometimes make it necessary to change the seal system.
