The main reasons for flange leakage are as follows: 1. **Improper installation**: The flange is not aligned properly or the torque applied is uneven during installation, resulting in poor sealing. 2. **Material fatigue**: The flange material suffers from fatigue over time, leading to cracks or deformation. 3. **Temperature changes**: Sudden temperature changes can cause the material to expand or contract, thereby affecting its sealing performance. 4. **Corrosion**: The corrosive nature of the medium can cause damage to the flange surface, affecting the sealing performance. 5. **Sealing material aging**: Materials such as gaskets age or get damaged, resulting in failed sealing. Regular inspection and maintenance can effectively reduce the occurrence of flange leaks. .
