Installation of bellows compensators on curved pipes

Installation of bellows compensators on curved pipes
Installation of bellows compensators on bent pipelines requires extra care. Axial bellows compensator is simple in structure and inexpensive, and should be given priority as much as possible. If it is necessary to discharge condensate or prevent the medium from accumulating and concentrating in group C, it is advisable to use external pressure uniaxial type to compensate axial displacement. Axial bellows compensator in the "L" elbow section of the long leg to absorb axial displacement and a small amount of transverse displacement, in its short leg to absorb transverse displacement and a small amount of axial displacement.
 
Single-hinged bellows compensator can only be used for angular deflection, so generally should be used for more than two, can not be used alone. When using a pair of single-hinged bellows compensator to absorb transverse displacement, should increase the distance between them as much as possible, in order to more effectively play its compensation capacity. For the "Z" bend section; when the horizontal pipe is long, the horizontal pipe section can occur elastic deformation, the use of two single hinged bellows compensator to absorb the displacement of the plane "Z" shaped pipe section; when the horizontal pipe section is short and the horizontal pipe section can not occur elastic deformation, the use of Three single hinge type damper on the plane "Z" shaped pipe displacement.
 
The straight pipe pressure balance type bellows compensator can balance the pressure thrust of the bellows. For the main solid support can not be installed or equipment can not withstand the pressure thrust of the solid pipe section, it is appropriate to use the straight pressure-balanced bellows compensator.
 
Universal hinged bellows compensator can be used for angular deflection in any plane, it is advisable to use two or three groups (one of the three groups can be hinged) to absorb the displacement of the space pipe section.
 
The composite tie-bar bellows compensator is widely used in the import and export of load-sensitive equipment to absorb the thermal displacement of the equipment and pipeline through the angular deflection of the bellows, so as to minimize the load borne by the equipment. Bellows Compensator is a pipeline equipment co. with rich production experience. Installation and use of bellows compensators on curved pipelines requires extra care.
