Plugging leaks under pressure
Thread Content
For high-temperature and high-pressure gasification pipelines, once leaks occur in the pipes, flanges, or valves and it is not possible to tighten them, pressure-containing sealing methods are generally employed on-site. What common methods are used in manufacturing to prevent leaks? What other measures can be taken after a leak?
This is still very dangerous; the professionals involved are extremely skilled
Generally, leaks at sealing areas such as flanges can be repaired while the system is under pressure; clamps can be used for this purpose. If the area in question is suitable, such as with octagonal or elliptical gaskets, twisting and pressing methods can also be employed to stop the leak.
It is recommended to conduct a thorough inspection of the pipelines and valves for erosion and corrosion every time the furnace is shut down! Ensuring the quality of maintenance to the greatest extent possible is the foundation of safe production! ! For high-temperature and high-pressure gasification pipelines, once leaks occur in the pipes, flanges, or valves and tightening does not resolve the issue, it is necessary to engage a qualified and experienced leak repair company to develop a plan and carry out the repairs!
