High-performance solutions for the energy sector

Our portfolio includes sealed components oriented to different applications in wind, solar, hydroelectric plants, refineries, power systems and green hydrogen projects.

Always with the commitment to offer products that guarantee reliability, low consumption and adaptability for the energy sector.

Sealing products for the energy sector

Large diameter seals:

Specifically for the wind energy sector, the large diameter seals ensure sealing on shafts and other critical points, reducing wear and extending the life of the equipment.

Special blends for the electrical sector:

we develop exclusive formulations adapted to the requirements of the electrical sector. These blends combine advanced materials, such as PTFE and other compounds, which allow for low energy consumption and high reliability.

High durability solutions:

designed for applications in extreme conditions, resist external agents and sudden changes in the environment.

Certified gaskets with low fugitive emission rate:

The company has special facilities for refineries, as they are required by regulations to control and reduce their emissions into the atmosphere.

Technical characteristics of watertight products in the energy industry

The performance of our products in the energy sector is based on a number of fundamental technical characteristics:

1. Efficiency and reliability

We use solutions based on materials PTFE, The sealing solutions, with single or energized lip, are designed to reduce shaft friction and improve component durability. These sealing solutions minimize energy losses and ensure constant operation.

Tolerance to extreme temperatures

Our sealing materials withstand temperature ranges from -50 °C to +300 °C, ideal for solar plants exposed to climatic variations and wind turbines operating under severe conditions.

Explosive decompression solutions

We offer options such as decompression resistant materials (AED), metallic seals and specific configurations for products under high pressure such as liquefied gases.

4. Chemical compatibility

The transition to more environmentally friendly solutions has led to the need to replace SF6 gas with alternatives such as nitrogen or GR3. Our sealing materials comply with environmental regulations and improve process sustainability.

Epidor's commitment to the energy sector

We have an engineering team that works closely with each customer to develop tailor-made solutions, ensuring that each component is perfectly integrated into the production systems.

We also offer, technical advice and customized training for the implementation and maintenance of sealing systems in the energy sector.

Frequently asked questions about solutions for the energy sector

What sealing solutions for the energy sector does Epidor offer?

We manufacture large diameter seals, special mixtures and high durability solutions adapted to the demands of renewable energies and electrical systems.

Can watertight solutions withstand the high temperatures typical of the energy industry?

Yes, our sealing products are perfectly designed to optimize energy consumption and can operate under high pressure and at extreme temperatures.

How do you manage these extreme temperatures?

We use sealing materials that withstand temperature ranges from -50 °C to +300 °C. These materials ensure consistent performance in solar plants, wind turbines and other critical industry applications.

What is explosive decompression and how is it addressed?

Explosive decompression is a phenomenon that occurs when gases exceed 30 bar pressure. To mitigate this risk, we implement sealing solutions using decompression resistant materials (AED) or metal gaskets.

How does Epidor guarantee the chemical compatibility of its products?

Our products are formulated to be compatible with environmentally friendly alternatives to SF6 gas, such as nitrogen or GR3. This allows us to manufacture sealing solutions that comply with environmental regulations.

Does Epidor offer technical advice for the implementation of these solutions?

Yes, our engineering team works with each customer on a one-to-one basis. We offer technical support throughout the entire process, from the design of watertight parts to installation, to ensure that our products integrate seamlessly into energy installations.
