Regarding equipment gaskets
Thread Content
We need to design a closed-loop water heat exchanger using seawater as the medium; I’m not sure what type of gasket would be best for this equipment
For circulating water heat exchangers, the operating pressure and temperature should be relatively low; corrosion caused by seawater is a major concern, so rubber gaskets such as EPDM or nitrile rubber can be used – in short, any material that offers good resistance to seawater corrosion will suffice.
