Abstract

The present invention relates to a pressure vessel (1) for a high pressure press comprising at least a first sub-cylinder (4) and a second sub-cylinder (6), which are axially connected to form a cylinder body (2) for enclosing a high pressure medium, and a sealing arrangement arranged at the inner wall of the cylinder body for sealing the joint (3) between the first and the second sub-cylinder (4, 6) against leakage of the pressure medium. The sealing arrangement is comprising a ring shaped sealing band (18), a first circumferential protruding flange (30), which is arranged on the inner wall of the first sub-cylinder and which axially extends from the joint (3) and away from the second sub-cylinder (6), and a second circumferential protruding flange (32), which is arranged on the inner wall of the second sub cylinder (6) and which axially extends from the joint (3) and away from the first sub-cylinder (4). The sealing band (18), in mounted position, is located concentrically within the first and the second protruding flanges (30, 32) such that it in a radially pre-stressed manner abuts against the first and second protruding flanges (30, 32) and sealingly overlaps the joint (3) between the first and the second sub-cylinder (4, 6). The sealing arrangement further comprises a first circumferential mounting space (51), which is arranged in the inner wall of the first sub-cylinder (4) and which axially extends from the first protruding flange (30) and away from the second sub-cylinder (6), for facilitating exchange of components of the sealing arrangement.
