NYHED Saunders EX Endurance membran
Den ideelle løsning for høje temperaturer
Key features
- Excellent performance for prolonged exposure of high temperatures
- Ideal for steam supply, steam distribution, sterile barriers, steam condensate and Block-and-Bleed applications
- Improved sealing and reduced demand for tension
General Data
Saunders EX membrane is a two-part membrane consisting of a modified PTFE front (TFM) and a support membrane in reinforced silicone.
Compared to a standard EPDM membrane, the silicone membrane has an exceptional performance at high temperatures without evidence of deterioration of physical properties and deformation. When exposed to high temperatures for a long time, EPDM rubber will lose its flexibility and thus lose the good support for the PTFE front.
EX membrane is tested on continuous steam at 175 ° C (347 ° F)
applications
EX membrane is the ideal solution for applications with high temperatures.
- Vapor distribution and supply
