When it comes to handling Anhydrous Ammonia, the hose you choose shouldn’t be an afterthought — it’s a critical component of your system that could become the weakest link if not selected carefully. The inner tube material is a key part of NH₃ hose performance, and that’s where chlorobutyl stands apart.

 

Chlorobutyl is a low-permeation synthetic rubber that is resistant to Anhydrous Ammonia and is used to prevent gas from seeping through the hose wall. This matters because NH₃ is used under pressure and can permeate through lower-quality materials, causing potential hose cover blistering and delamination, as well as contributing to excess ammonia vapor and exposure around equipment.

 

Using a hose with a chlorobutyl tube significantly reduces permeation, keeping the NH₃ where it belongs — in the hose. Less permeation means better hose integrity, contributing to a longer, and more dependable service life during your critical application seasons.

 

LGG Industrial is the exclusive distributor of Goodall Anhydrous Ammonia hose, the only NH3 hose in the market built with a chlorobutyl inner tube.

Listen to the podcast from Thursday, March 19, 2026: Live from AFPM Annual: Reducing Emissions With Advanced Gasket Technology

 

At industry events like AFPM, one topic continues to rise to the surface: emissions reduction. While regulations and expectations continue to evolve, one challenge remains—there is no universal EPA emissions standard for gasket and sealing products.

 

So how can refineries and petrochemical facilities confidently reduce fugitive emissions?

 

At LGG Industrial, we believe the answer lies in a combination of engineering expertise, proven solutions, and proper installation practices.

 

Moving Beyond “Low Emissions” Claims

Without standardized benchmarks, many products are marketed as “low emission” without measurable data to support those claims. This creates uncertainty for operators who are under pressure to improve environmental performance while maintaining reliability.

That’s where experience matters.

 

LGG Industrial works closely with customers to evaluate their specific applications and recommend sealing solutions that deliver real, measurable results—not just marketing promises.

 

A Real-World Example of Emissions Reduction

In one case, a large California refinery approached LGG Industrial with a fugitive emissions issue exceeding 500 ppm—well above acceptable thresholds.

 

Rather than simply meeting compliance, the refinery set an aggressive goal: reduce emissions to 10 ppm.

 

Through close collaboration, LGG developed a specialized sealing solution that evolved into the HDLE (High Density Low Emissions) gasket. The result?

 

Emissions were reduced to just 5 ppm—cutting well below the target and demonstrating the power of engineered solutions.

 

It’s Not Just the Gasket

While product selection is critical, it’s only one part of the equation.

Proper installation, bolting techniques, and overall flange management play a significant role in long-term sealing performance. Even the best gasket can fail if it’s not installed correctly.

That’s why LGG Industrial supports customers with:

  • Hands-on training for installation best practices
  • Guidance on bolting and torque procedures
  • Expertise in heat exchanger and critical sealing applications

 

The LGG Advantage

With in-house manufacturing capabilities through Leader Gasket and Advanced Sealing, LGG Industrial delivers more than just products—we provide custom-engineered solutions designed for real-world operating conditions.

Combined with decades of experience and a proactive service approach, we help customers:

  • Reduce emissions
  • Improve reliability
  • Prevent issues before they become costly failures

 

Reducing emissions isn’t about chasing labels—it’s about applying the right solution, the right way.

 

At LGG Industrial, we partner with customers to do exactly that.

En el exigente mundo de las operaciones industriales, ya sea en el sector del petróleo y el gas, el refino, la generación de energía, el procesamiento químico o la agricultura, la integridad de las juntas de brida es primordial. Garantizar conexiones consistentes y sin fugas puede reducir significativamente el tiempo de inactividad, los costes de mantenimiento y los riesgos de seguridad.

 

Ahí es donde entra en juego la formación FADU de LGG Industrial: un programa práctico y de inmersión diseñado para optimizar los procedimientos de atornillado y dotar a su equipo de las mejores prácticas probadas.

 

¿Qué es la formación FADU?

La FADU ( Unidad de Demostración de Ensamblajede Bridas)es una herramienta dinámica de formación in situ que LGG Industrial utiliza para mostrar a los profesionales de mantenimiento, operaciones e ingeniería el impacto en el mundo real de los procedimientos controlados de atornillado. Mediante la simulación de ensamblajes de bridas atornilladas y la recopilación de datos en tiempo real, la FADU demuestra cómo los detalles de ejecución determinan los resultados.

 

Profundizar en los módulos: Lo que aprenden los participantes

He aquí un desglose de los principales módulos de formación de la FADU y de cómo cada uno de ellos contribuye a un rendimiento de estanquidad más seguro y fiable:

  1. Juicio mecánico - Los participantes aprietan una tuerca utilizando su juicio, mientras una célula de carga registra la carga del espárrago. Los resultados, representados en un gráfico, ponen de manifiesto la variabilidad natural del apriete manual y subrayan la necesidad de procedimientos controlados.
  1. Compresión de juntas - Este módulo destaca por qué es importante utilizar un patrón de apriete en estrella, cómo afecta la "diafonía" entre espárragos a la junta y cómo influye la aplicación de lubricante en la carga de los pernos. Los alumnos fijan las bridas utilizando los procedimientos de apriete propios de su planta para ver estos principios en acción.
  1. Instalación de juntas de anillo - Similar a la compresión de juntas, pero centrada en las juntas RTJ (Ring Type Joint), revelando cómo persiste la variabilidad común incluso con diferentes tipos de juntas.
  1. Precarga del par de apriete - Un análisis en profundidad de cómo las pequeñas variables -lubricación, orientación de la tuerca frente a la arandela, diferentes llaves dinamométricas- provocan grandes diferencias en los resultados de la precarga. Comprender estos matices permite obtener juntas más estancas y un mejor rendimiento.
  1. Comparación de métodos de montaje - Los alumnos prueban varias técnicas de montaje, explicando su proceso a medida que avanzan. Esta comparación práctica pone de relieve qué métodos proporcionan una carga uniforme, una compresión óptima de la junta y eficiencia.
  1. Evaluación de habilidades prácticas (certificación): para aquellos que deseen obtener la certificación, existe una evaluación estructurada de 12 pasos de aprobado/no aprobado. Abarca la inspección, la lubricación, la colocación de pernos y tuercas, el uso de la llave dinamométrica y el patrón de apriete, y exige una puntuación mínima del 80% para aprobar.

 

Por qué es importante: Las principales ventajas de la formación FADU

La formación FADU mejora la seguridad y la fiabilidad reduciendo las fugas, a la vez que proporciona a los participantes una experiencia práctica que hace que las lecciones se queden grabadas. Al utilizar los procedimientos propios de sus instalaciones, garantiza una relevancia directa, aumenta la eficiencia y minimiza el tiempo de inactividad. Con la validación de habilidades y una amplia aplicación en todos los sectores, FADU equipa a los equipos para ofrecer un rendimiento constante y sin fugas.

 

Dé el siguiente paso

El rendimiento sin fugas comienza con la formación. La formación FADU de LGG Industrial dota a su equipo de las habilidades y la confianza necesarias para mantener su operación en funcionamiento de forma segura y eficiente.
