The key to choosing the appropriate membrane technology for a given application is understanding the environmental conditions and the surface tension of the fluids that the vent will encounter.

Fluctuations in temperature create failures in electronic devices due to pressure differentials. Gore application engineers simulated a rapid heating and cooling cycle to understand the effects of pressure differentials. This document describes the test procedures and results.

Calidad asegurada con el “Programa de Sello de Calidad” de Gore. En el mercado se ofrecen muchas empaquetaduras de PTFE/grafito. Mientras todas se vean iguales, vale la pena constatar que existen diferencias enormes en la calidad y el rendimiento actual del producto de muchas soluciones de empaquetadura ofrecidas.

EMPAQUETADURA DE COMPRESIÓN – EXPERIENCIA DE PLANTA

Las empaquetaduras que contienen un 100% de fibra GORE® GFO® proporcionan a los ingenieros de mantenimiento una empaquetadura de servicio general con un alto rendimiento consistente para múltiples aplicaciones y usos. A diferencia de otras empaquetaduras de PTFE/grafito, sólo las fabricadas con fibra GFO®, con sus 30 años de historia de funcionamiento excepcional, proporcionan un nivel inigualable de seguridad y confianza.

A five-year study demonstrates that GORE^® Protective Vents can extend the service life of sealed outdoor enclosures, reliably protecting the integrity of the sensitive electronics within. The study, developed and conducted by Gore application engineers, measured pressure differentials in both non-vented and vented enclosures. The resulting effects on enclosure and seal integrity are dramatic. 

When telecommunication equipment fails prematurely due to conditions of the environment in which it is installed, it leads to network downtime, increased costs and maintenance, and reduced brand loyalty. Gore application engineers developed new enclosure reliability tests that replicate real-world environmental challenges.
