Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical specifications and recommended uses for various types of compression packings used in valves and pumps. The packings are designed for industrial applications, particularly in high-temperature environments such as power plants, petrochemical facilities, and refineries.
Specifications: The document details the composition and properties of different packing materials, including PTFE, graphite, and aramid fibers. It specifies the standard sizes available, both in metric and imperial units, and the packaging options in kilograms and pounds.
Product Descriptions: Each packing type is described with its unique features, such as impregnation methods, corrosion inhibitors, and mechanical reinforcements. The document lists several products, including GR8800, GR8807 INCOBRAID®, GR8888, GR8748, GR8048, GR80/SGR, GR48, C8200, C8104/L, C8100, B1204 DINAWHITE™, PT5600/K, GF7700 GFO®, GL7000, GF7600/K, GF4770, PT5504/S, SQ5500 SEQUEL®, KD6605 DINACOMB™, N3404, K6600/C, KD6604, N1304, V9944, R4804, and V9907.
Performance Parameters: The document provides detailed performance parameters for each packing type, including pressure (P bar and Ibf/in2), velocity (Vm/S and f/pm), pH range, and temperature limits (T °C and °F). These parameters are crucial for selecting the appropriate packing for specific industrial applications.
Recommended Uses: The document outlines the recommended applications for each packing type, highlighting their suitability for various industrial processes. It emphasizes the importance of selecting the right packing based on the chemical and physical conditions of the application, such as the presence of oxidizing agents or steam.
Limitations and Considerations: The document advises against using the products at their maximum values simultaneously without consulting Carrara S.p.A. It also notes the incompatibility of certain graphite products with strong oxidants.
Contact Information: The document provides contact details for Carrara S.p.A., including their address, phone number, fax, and email, for further inquiries or technical support.
