Temperature Ratings
The above temperatures are the maximum allowable regardless of applications. In some cases, the upper limit may be lower depending
on the fl uids being handled and on the unit design pressure.
Gaskets—Glued
Each plate has a molded one piece boundary gasket which is
glued into the continuous gasket groove in each plate. The liquid
fl owing on the surface of each plate fl ows on the inside of each
boundary gasket.
Every port hole gasket contains four bleed passages. (See Figure
32.) If one of the liquids should leak beyond a boundary gasket,
it will fl ow to the outside of the unit, thus preventing any possible
intermix. (See Figures 31 and 33.)
