What is different flange band protectors
Flange bands are used to cover flanges, protecting flange faces, stud bolts, and gaskets from corrosion. They provide a barrier against moisture, chemicals, saltwater, and acid rain also can used in flange leakage protection and leak detection
1. Soft Plastic(PVC) or Rubber(silicone /EPDM) flange band protectors with O ring seal
VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) soft plastic or rubber flange band protectors with O-ring seals are designed to offer effective process safety protection in industries where equipment is subjected to harsh environments, such as chemical plants, offshore rigs, and manufacturing facilities. These protectors are typically used to cover flanges and prevent corrosion, dirt, and other contaminants from compromising the integrity of the sealing surface, which is crucial for the proper functioning of mechanical systems.
They have two connect, one is clamp or cable tie,rope, the other is Velcro,or gluing, Two end of band with rubber seal or gluing seal .
This band can be with sniffer tube or leak Sensor.
2.Metal flange band protectors
Metal flange band protectors most made of SUS 316L , the seal with Neoprene/PTFE/graphite ,they have two type contectors one is stainless worm gear clamp,the other is bolt type
3. N2 purging flange system
Nitrogen purging is an effective way to eliminate uncontrolled hazardous gas leaks from a flange
4.Multi-layered mesh safety flange band guards
Multi-layered mesh safety flange band guards are designed to provide an additional layer of protection in hazardous environments where pressurized systems are in use. These guards help prevent injury and damage in the event of a hazardous spray-out, which can occur due to pressure surges, seal failures, or other system malfunctions.
