3.2.3 Resistance of the sealing materials
The r
esistance and permitted operating temperature of the sealing materials depend on
the type and temperature of the medium conveyed. The exposure time can adversely
affect the service life of the seals. The sealing materials comply with the regulations of
FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 or FDA 21 CFR 177.1550.
The maximum operating temperature is dened by the sealing type and its mechanical
load.
Due to the versatile conditions of use (e.g. usage duration, switching frequency, type
and temperature of product and cleaning agents as well as usage environment), GEA
Tuchenhagen recommends that the user carries out resistance tests.
Resistance:

+ = good r

●
o = r
