Gate Rubber Seals



Useful information

FOR DESIGNERS

1) Our SBR composite seals feature excellent mechanical

properties, meeting the requirement to withstand ozone attack

and featuring better water absorption characteristics than those

provided by polychloroprene compounds.

The use of polychloroprene specification should be restricted to special

conditions:

a) Regions with high U.V. rays incidence and environments with

high ozone concentration.

b) The effect of environmental aggressive factors, such as certain

chemicals, not usually occurring in clean river waters (chemicals

for instances).

2) In some cases, not even SBR or CR will be adequate to the

environment where gates are installed (for instance, radiations

or an acid medium). Our technicians will indicate the proper

elastomer for each specific case.

3) Depending on project requirements, seal hardness properties

other than 50/60 Shore A and 60/70 Shore A hardness may be

required above or below standardized values.

Gate Rubber Seals



4) Refer to catalog and try to adapt your requirements to one of the

existing profiles.

In the event of minor changes having to be introduced in a given shape,

please contact our technicians.

This is highly recommended as tooling, in addition to high production

costs will demand a long manufacturing period.

5) Check that the selected shape is provided with the

corresponding corner (not all of them are).

6) Assess the need for using corner seals, or whether they could

be replaced with vulcanized splices at 45º.

7) Please refer to us regarding seals coated with a PTFE film, as

not all shapes in our catalog could be coated.

8) Pleases contact our technicians to request the development and

testing of non-existing shapes (see our bulletins).

9) Our seals are manufactured by the continuous molding process

and, therefore, will feature excellent mechanical and

dimensional characteristics, with minimum variations and with

smooth surfaces. Additionally, this process enables PTFE

coatings to be applied.

FOR PURCHASERS

Our seals are made to order only and, therefore, please make sure your

orders will be placed with due advance notice to avoid delaying your

projects.

In order to expedite our reply to your quotation, please mention the

code number part or the dimensions of your selected shape, the type of

rubber (SBR, CR, or others), the required hardness (50/60, 60/70, or

others) and the span size.

Seals are always supplied with some excess length to enable them to

be adapted during assembly.

FOR USERS

1) Upon delivery of our seals to your premises, you will have to

remove them from their packaging and have them stored in a

sheltered place, away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.

Ideally, our seals should be spread out for storage but, should

this not be possible, make sure the bending radius will be as

large as possible less coiling during storage. Nothing should be

piled on top of our seals.

2) PTFE-coated seals should be carefully handled, never bending

them over in the direction of coating as this will lead to film

wrinkling or peeling. (see handling instructions).

Gate Rubber Seals



3) The use of our metal/rubber washers is recommended,

particularly whem installing sluice gate seals.

4) Our technicians will be available to assist you from the design

stage up to the maintenance of your sluice gates. If so

requested, we will be pleased to visit the power station to

provide on-site assistance and to help solving possible

problems.

WARRANTY

Our sponsor was awarded ISO 9001:2000 certification by Bureau

Veritas.

Our seals are delivered together with a certificate of the tests performed

on the composite used.

Provided adequate conditions of transportation, handling and storage

are complied with, we will guarantee our seals for a period of 3 years

counted from the date they are shipped from our facilities.

External Aspect

Seals shall present uniform surfaces, free from defects capable of

jeopardizing the sealing function.

Gate Rubber Seals



Splices shall be flawless, with a slight unlevelness being however

admissible between joined shapes, due to joint rubber contraction.

Tolerance / Dimensional Check

Tolerances in the cross section dimensions of section shapes and seal

frame front end shall comply with ISO 3302, Class M3 (that superseded

DIN 7715, Part 2, Class M3 standard).

The PTFE film shall present in the splice area a spacing to each other

from 3 to 10 min; in that region, the film could show a slight unlevelness

relative to the section shape surface.

Customers are advised to refer to PRODEPLASTICOS for the

maximum unlevelness values in splices and joined section shapes.
