PTFE (Teflon) / EPDM Diaphragm for Diaphragm Valve
EPDM
Ethylene-propylene elastomer peroxide cured.
The SED EPDM is a specifically developed compound reinforced with a vulcanized woven fabric inlay and is always manufactured in the molded open position. This diaphragm construction achieves higher stability for the diaphragm at elevated temperatures and pressures. In addition, the woven fabric inlay is vulcanized over the embedded compressor stud in order to strengthen the elastomer-metal connection. Thus, the EPDM diaphragm is ideal for vacuum applications.
PTFE (TFM) (Teflon)
These PTFE diaphragms have been designed and offer the highest degree of chemical resistance, increased stability, longer flex life, less porosity, reduced cold flow and superior performance through temperature fluctuations between hot and cold and steam sterilization cycles.
