There are four main reasons for the failure of water supply rubber rings: design errors, material selection errors, seal quality problems and improper use.

Storage requirements:

1. Temperature: 5°C to 25°C is the ideal storage temperature, not higher than 25°C. Avoid contact with heat sources and sunlight. For seals taken out from low-temperature storage, they should be placed in a room temperature environment for more than 10 minutes before use. Cleaning: The seals can be cleaned with soapy water as needed. Disinfectants, organic solvents, and sharp tools should not be used. The cleaned seals should be dried at room temperature and kept away from heat sources. The environment for storing rubber seals should be kept clean.

2. Humidity: The relative humidity of the warehouse should be lower than 70%. To avoid too wet or too dry, no condensation. Light: Rubber seals should be stored away from light, especially strong sunlight and ultraviolet rays. The UV-resistant bag provides the best protection. Red or orange paint or film is recommended for warehouse windows. Radiation: Avoid ionizing radiation damage to seals.

3. Deformation: The water supply rubber ring should be placed in a free and relaxed state to avoid stretching, compression, and other deformations, such as hanging and stacking. Packaging: Rubber seals must not come into contact with solvents, grease, magnetic materials, etc., which can damage the rubber. Do not use PVC material to wrap the seal. Seals of different materials shall not be mixed together. Storage period: The storage period of the water supply rubber ring is determined by the type of rubber material.

4. Oxygen and ozone: rubber materials should avoid exposure to circulating air. This can be achieved by packaging, wrapping, storing in an airtight container or other suitable means. In the storage space, there should not be equipment that can generate ozone, such as mercury vapor lamps, high-voltage electrical appliances that are prone to sparks or static electricity, and motors.
