If you have ever been responsible for installing gravity sewer or drain pipes, you already know one thing: they absolutely must be airtight. One tiny leak can mean big problems down the road. That is where air testing comes in, and specifically, testing that follows the EN 1610 standard. Air testing is quick, cost-effective, and cleaner than water testing. But like any pressurized system, it has ...
This phenomenon commonly occurs in piping systems where the flow of a fluid is abruptly halted or redirected due to valve closure, pump start or stop, or sudden changes in flow velocity. ...
This not only saves time, but also reduces the labor intensity and safety hazards of field workers. (2) Good flexibility Grooved flexible coupling joints have good flexibility and can absorb deformation in different directions and sizes in the piping system, effectively reducing the deformation and vibration of ...
The following guidelines can help with selecting expansion joints Although sometimes overlooked or treated like an afterthought in process design, expansion joints are critical elements in chemical process industries (CPI) operations for providing flexibility and stress relief to piping systems. Failures in expansion joints can result in leaks ...
PlugCo has manufactured for various countries such as Qatar, Peru and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. One of the pipe plugs of PlugCo that are widely used and are essential for the safety and regulations of the pipeline system is the flexible pipe plug. ...
The right equipment and proper maintenance can extend the life of this critical component, and add to a system’s total lifespan. To Insulate or Not? While it is common practice to put insulation over metallic expansion joints to minimize heat loss in a piping system, the practice should not be followed with rubber expansion joints. ...
The company, together with its international partners Siemens and Parker, have developed a system for offshore hydrogen production. They’ve dubbed it the Green Power Eco System from Waves4Power. ...
Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation of the machine and daily production of the air pipe does not appear stops caused by faults, it is necessary to carry out maintenance of the duct production line. 1. The material requirements of the flexible pipe of the air duct cleaning system are relatively high, which ...
A field measurement system is described for determining strains in buried flexible pipes. The microprocessor-based system obtains data that is subsequently analyzed on minicomputers or mainframe machines. The field system is also capable of analyzing the data using its own microprocessor provided that a graphics ...
