PPE investigates some of the key considerations when developing sealing solutions for critical life science applications. The video introduces unique elastomer materials and product profiles which are proven to improve reliability and performance in life science environments, and reduce unscheduled equipment downtime.

This video introduces Perlast® G77X - a perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) sealing material combining high temperature performance with exceptional low compression set. Perlast® G77X has been engineered for long term performance and durability in a range of critical applications, including chemical processing, aerospace, and in mechanical seals. The material can be moulded into O-rings and custom shapes.

Elastomer O-rings are one of the main uncontrolled gas sources in a sealed vacuum system. In this short animation you will learn what outgassing is and how to avoid it in your Semiconductor application.

This video explains the affect of compressive stress relaxation (CSR) encountered by elastomer seals. It addresses what CSR is, why it occurs, how it is measured and why it is important to consider during seal selection.

An animated guide to PFAS, and the sealing considerations you may need to make in light of new and impending legal restrictions. Graphic elements used in this animation are representative, and no similarity to actual PPE materials or processes should be inferred. The term ''Approved'' in this animation refers solely to internal evaluation criteria, and does not imply regulatory, legal or third-party certification.

Perlast® Super-Six material grades are engineered to perform to the highest standard under the temperatures, pressures, chemical media considerations and mechanical stresses of the energy, chemical processing, pharmaceutical, biomedical, aerospace & food & dairy applications

This animation shows the benefits of using Perlast® perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) O-rings, from Precision Polymer Engineering, in mechanical seals.
The most critical O-rings provide a static seal between the rotary rings and shafts, and also between the stationary rings and the equipment casing.
These O-rings are often exposed to aggressive process media, so careful selection of O-ring material is essential.
Find out how Perlast® can provide class-leading performance in mechanical seals.
