With the FKM compound Vi 900, the seal manufacturer
C. Otto Gehrckens presents a high-performance material for use in the petrochemical industry. The material has proved its suitability as a dependable elastomer seal even under the most demanding conditions, complying with Norsok test standard M-710 and also passing the hardness test with the best possible rating of 4x ‘0000’, without showing any damage whatsoever. Vi 900 is therefore ideally suited for use in production sectors which, as a result of the danger of explosive decompression, impose especially high demands on the seals used.
The special feature of this product development is its outstanding stability under low temperatures. With a TR-10 value of -40 °C, Vi 900 is suitable for the coldest applications, right down to -50 °C and it also complies with American standards API 6A and 6D for oil and gas installations.
A further advantage for this FKM compound is its excellent resistance to a wide range of specific media and chemicals, from mineral oils to aliphatic, aromatic or even chlorinated hydrocarbons and also to acids in various concentrations and weak alkalis. And as the material is also characterised by very low gas permeability, a wide range of applications is possible.
