Helium tank sealing issues
Thread Content
Dear experts, I have a pressure vessel filled with helium, with a design pressure of 10 MPa. Which type of gasket would be the best for sealing it?
For the sealing of helium containers, it is generally recommended to use metal gaskets, such as stainless steel or copper. This is because metal gaskets possess good elasticity and plasticity, allowing them to adapt well to container deformation and external impacts, and they provide excellent sealing performance in high-pressure environments. At the same time, metal gaskets have a longer lifespan, lower maintenance costs, and are more stable and reliable. It should be noted that during installation, the procedures must be followed strictly in accordance with the design requirements to ensure the quality and safety of the gaskets. .
Do the metal gaskets you mentioned include metal wound gaskets as well?
For hydrogen or steam pipelines subjected to similar pressures, the projects designed by our company typically employ MFM flanges or RJ face flanges, along with metal spiral-wound gaskets or octagonal gaskets; these combinations yield excellent results
