Causes of swelling of plate heat exchanger gaskets

Plate heat exchanger has the advantages of high heat exchange efficiency, compact and light structure, small footprint, wide application, long service life, etc. It is these advantages that make it widely used in various industries, but while having advantages, use Some problems will definitely be discovered during the process-the swelling of the plate heat exchanger gasketsis a problem that plagues many users. So what is the cause of this problem?

1.The reason for the medium. Different materials must be used at different temperatures, different concentrations, and different media. For example, heat-conducting oil must use oil-resistant nitrile rubber strips, and water use EPDM rubber strips. Yes, if the heat transfer oil has to use EPDM rubber strips, it is inevitable that the swelling of the plate heat exchanger gaskets. Therefore, the appropriate gasket material must be selected according to the different properties of the medium. 2. The raw materials for making gaskets; everyone knows that at the very beginning of the manufacture of gasket, rubber compounds need to be refined. There are many kinds of rubber compounds, and the content is different. Different raw materials and different media will be different.

One reason for the leakage of heat exchange equipment is the swelling of plate heat exchanger gaskets.
