SEAL WITH LIP PROJECTIONS
Seals for mechanical couplings and fittings have sealing surfaces with one or more projections that form closable leak paths between the coupling or fitting and pipe elements being joined. The leak paths close when the coupling or fitting is properly installed. Otherwise, the leak paths remain open...

Summary: | Seals for mechanical couplings and fittings have sealing surfaces with one or more projections that form closable leak paths between the coupling or fitting and pipe elements being joined. The leak paths close when the coupling or fitting is properly installed. Otherwise, the leak paths remain open to ensure that improperly installed couplings and fittings can be discovered during pressure testing and before service pressure is applied.
Sellos para acoplamientos y montajes mecánicos tienen superficies de sellado con una o más proyecciones que forman trayectorias de fuga que se pueden cerrar entre el acoplamiento o montaje y los elementos de tubería que se unen; las trayectorias de fuga se cierran cuando el acoplamiento o montaje se instala de manera apropiada; de otra forma, las trayectorias de fuga permanecen abiertas para asegurar que los acoplamientos y montajes instalados de manera inadecuada se puedan descubrir durante la prueba de presión y antes de que se aplique la presión de servicio. |
