CUSTOMISED FLANGE SEALS

08 June, 2020

For each customer requirement, Freudenberg says its experts can set about developing a completely new design of flange seal. Factors such as prevailing pressures and temperatures, the product and cleaning media, as well as the dimensions and process-related variance of the sealing groove, have a role to play. Importantly, the company’s tailor-made solutions enable hygienic sealing, flush with the product – the flange seal neither protrudes into the product area, nor does it rebound.

Of particular note, Freudenberg says it can offer a proven design for special housings in the process industry and thanks to unique FEM analyses, the company’s design provides optimised hygienic sealing that surpasses conventional flange seals. This high-performance seal also provides an easily cleanable solution in non-rotationally symmetric systems and standard housings. The material variants deployed, such as EPDM or HNBR, show high resistance to CIP/SIP (cleaning-in-place/sterilisation-in-place) media and meet the requirements of the American FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
