What is the procedure for reassembling the panel gasket?
After reassembling the baffle plates, clean the surface receiving the gasket thoroughly, taking care not scratch the gasket's surface.
Put the gasket in place. It can be a flat gasket or a gasket with a rectangular section.
If the gasket has a rectangular section, it must be placed into the groove provided for that purpose.
Gaskets must be replaced with new ones after dismantling. Only use gaskets supplied by Alfa Laval.
Depending on the Heat Exchanger duty, gasket material can be either Modified PTFE or Reinforced Graphite.
The large gaskets may be supplied in several pieces.
Always put the old gaskets in an appropriate waste container.
