Application of TEADIT High Purity Flexible Graphite Compression Filler 2000IC Type
TEADIT is a company with 50 years of experience specializing in the production of seals, with modern production facilities in Europe and the Americas, all in strict accordance with the high quality standards of ISO 9001.
2000IC Compression Packing:
Type 2000IC is made of high-purity flexible graphite that is expanded and formed into a braidable yarn, which is then structurally woven into a wire reinforcement. The finished product retains all the inherent advantages of flexible graphite;Whereas, steel wire reinforcement provides greater mechanical strength. Type 2000ic packing is particularly suitable for high-temperature, high-pressure steam service. In addition, it can handle most chemicals, acids, and bases. This type is ideal for use in steam turbines, high-temperature motor-driven valves, and general high-pressure, high-temperature valve applications.
Purpose: To characterize the fire resistance of Type 2000IC packing when applied to valves under direct flame.
Test the procedure. API Standard 589 2nd Edition.
Test parameters. Exposure to fire for 40 minutes;
The body temperature is up to 679 C;
Leaks are allowed, pressure is tested, and measurements are taken according to the table below.
Conclusion. The packaging format 2000ic has been successfully tested and easily meets the requirements of this standard.
Objective: To identify fugitive emissions from valves of Type 2000IC packing during thermal and mechanical cycling.
Leak detection method "EPA Method 21".
Test the procedure. ARCO Fugitive Emissions Test Specification.
Test parameters. 3 thermal cycles at room temperature and 177 C;
Leakage measurements are taken before and after each thermal cycle and every 100 cycles of the shaft;
Test pressure: 645 psig (45 kgf cm2);
Test solution: foxboro ova128 (99% methane);
Maximum allowable leakage: 100 ppmv (if the allowable leakage exceeds 100 ppmv, the sobreposta must be adjusted).
Conclusion: Packing 2000IC successfully completed the test of 5 adjustments in 3500 cycles while keeping the leak below 100 ppmv.
