01 Notes for the installation of flange gaskets

Before installing the flange gasket, there are several notes that need to be paid special attention to. 

Firstly, ensure that the quality of flange gaskets meets the requirements and select suitable materials and specifications.

Secondly, clean the flange connection surface to ensure that it is flat, free of dirt or unevenness.

During the installation process, attention should be paid to preventing damage or deformation of the flange gasket to avoid air leakage or seepage.

Finally, install the flange gasket correctly according to relevant standards and requirements, and conduct a thorough inspection.

02 Installation steps of flange gaskets

1. Confirm the cleanliness and flatness of the flange connection surface.
2. Place the flange gasket on the connecting surface to ensure accurate positioning.
3. Install the bolts as required and gradually tighten them evenly.
4. Further check if all bolts are secure and ensure that the flange gasket is in normal working condition.

03 Selection and preparation of flange gaskets

1.Select appropriate flange gasket materials based on working conditions and medium characteristics.
2. Determine the specifications and dimensions of the flange gasket to ensure compatibility with the connecting surface.
3. Check the flange gasket before installation to avoid defects or damage.

04 Confirmation of installation position of flange gaskets

Before installing the flange gasket, it is necessary to confirm the correctness of the installation position.

Firstly, check the markings or numbers on the flange connection surface to ensure correct correspondence.

Secondly, confirm the alignment of the flange connection surface to avoid installation deviation or misalignment.

Finally, ensure that the flange gasket fits perfectly with the connecting surface, without any gaps that are too large or too small.

05 Inspection and maintenance of flange gaskets 

To ensure the normal operation and extend the service life of flange gaskets, regular inspections and maintenance are necessary.

1. Check whether the flange gasket is damaged, aged or deformed, and replace it in a timely manner.
