P-T diagram EN 1514-1, Type IBC, PN 40, DIN 28091-2 / 3.8, 2 mm
P-T diagrams indicate the maximum permissible combination of internal pressure and service temperature which can be simultaneously applied to a given gaskets thickness, size and tightness class. Given the wide variety of gasket applications and service conditions, these values should only be regarded as a guidance for the proper gasket assembly. In general, thinner gaskets exhibit better P-T properties.
-
General suitability - Under common installation practices and chemical compatibility
-
Conditional suitability - Appropriate measures ensure maximum performance for joint design and gasket installation. Technical consultation is recommended
-
Limited suitability - Technical consultation is mandatory.
