chamber
Thread Content
Place a wooden dummy in the flange face chamber to protect the flange face; it is also possible to leave the original gasket in place. How should the term \"marked in blue\" be translated? :Q
Take a look at this website: http://www.woodcousa.com/target-flg.htm Operators often specify target flanges on outlets opposite the inlets from chokes on manifold buffer chambers, see below.
As I understand it, the \"chamber\" refers to the circular hole at the center of the flange; a wooden frame is placed there to keep the two flange surfaces apart and thus protect them. The next sentence means that the original gasket between the flanges is retained as well, for the purpose of protecting those flange surfaces.
The \"dummy\" should be a temporary flange used to ensure the correct installation dimensions; the last image on the website link below shows such a flange made of metal: http://www.kemper-olpe.de/coupling_accessories-en-1_147_153.html. The term \"chamber\" likely refers to the small compartment in which the flange is installed, or rather, the space designated for installing the flange – it might not be necessary to translate this term
Personally, I think it refers to the recessed part of the concave flange. A wooden gasket is placed in the groove of this flange surface to protect it.
I’m posting here the picture that Susan mentioned, so everyone can get a visual idea:
It might be better to change “chamber” to “space” here.
