Can the IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM be used at 60 bar with aggressive chemicals, and what temperature limits apply?

Short answer: No . not without confirmation. The IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM has a nominal working pressure specified âup to 60 barâ and an operating temperature range of â30 Â°C to +120 Â°C. However safe use at 60 bar with aggressive chemicals cannot be assumed from these data alone. Why: permissible working pressure depends on both temperature and the chemical compatibility of EPDM with the specific aggressive medium. Aggressive chemicals can attack or swell EPDM, reducing sealing integrity and allowable pressure. Also, flange class/outer diameter must match the gasket selected (e.g., a gasket marked DN10 PN40 may be used in PN10, PN16, PN25). Recommendation: before use at 60 bar with aggressive chemicals, consult TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ® for confirmation of chemical compatibility and approved pressure/temperature limits for your exact medium, concentration and operating temperature. If chemical resistance is marginal, specify a gasket material rated for that chemical and temperature.

Is the IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM suitable for use with steam and high-temperature media near +120Â°C?

IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM Format: EPDM is generally resistant to hot water and some steam, and the product spec lists an operating temperature up to +120Â°C and working pressure up to 60 bar. However steam compatibility (especially saturated or superheated steam) and longâterm performance near +120Â°C depend on steam pressure, exposure time and cycle conditions. Because the datasheet itself advises that permissible working pressure and medium selection should be agreed with TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ®, you should confirm with the manufacturer before using this EPDM gasket with steam at or near +120Â°C.

Can the IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM be used with potable water systems and what pressure/temperature limits apply?

Yes. the IBC flat gasket for PN flange, EPDM can be used with potable (drinking) water systems, provided compatibility is confirmed with local regulations and any system-specific requirements. EPDM is a common, potable-water-compatible elastomer resistant to hot water and many disinfectants used in drinking-water systems. Pressure and temperature limits (per product description): - Working pressure: up to 60 bar (note: the permissible working pressure for a specific installation depends on temperature and medium and should be agreed with TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ®). - Operating temperature range: -30Â°C to +120Â°C. Selection notes: - Ensure the gasket outer diameter matches the flange class. Example: gasket DN 10 PN40 is suitable for flange classes PN10, PN16, and PN25. - Always verify final suitability (potable-water approvals, certifications, and allowable pressure at operating temperature) with TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ® and local regulations before installation.
