Metal Braided Expansion Joint

Product Introduction

Size

The size of metal braided expansion joints is usually determined based on specific application requirements and pipeline system design to ensure they match the requirements of specific pipeline systems.

• NPS: The size of metal braided expansion joints usually corresponds to the diameter of the pipeline. Common NPSs include 2 “, 4″, 6 “, 8″, and so on.
• Expansion and contraction: The design purpose of expansion joints is to allow the pipeline to move to a certain extent when affected by thermal expansion or contraction. The amount of expansion and contraction is usually expressed in inches or millimeters.
• Flange size: The two ends of the metal braided expansion joint are usually connected with flanges to facilitate connection with other parts of the pipeline system. The size of flanges usually conforms to standard flange dimensions, such as ANSI B16.5 or DIN standards.
• Total length: The total length of a metal braided expansion joint refers to the length of the entire expansion joint when it is not subjected to external forces. This is also a key dimension to consider when installing in pipeline systems.

Pressure

The pressure level of metal braided expansion joints refers to the maximum working pressure that they can withstand in their design and manufacturing.

• PN series: European standard PN10, PN16, PN25, etc. The unit is bar.
• ANSI level: American standards, such as ANSI 150, ANSI 300, ANSI 600, etc. The unit is pounds per square inch (psi).
• DIN level: German standard, DIN 10, DIN 16, DIN 25, etc. The unit is bar.
• JIS level: Japanese standard, JIS 5K, JIS 10K, JIS 20K

Metal Braided Expansion Joint is a compensator used in pipeline systems to absorb thermal expansion, vibration, and deformation of pipelines. These two are usually used together in pipeline systems, but they are independent components.

Features:

1. Metal braided structure: Metal braided is used as the outer layer of expansion joints, which can provide strength and flexibility, while allowing pipes to move to a certain extent when needed.
2. Absorption of thermal expansion and vibration: mainly used to absorb thermal expansion and vibration caused by temperature changes, vibration or other factors in pipeline systems.
3. Corrosion resistance: usually made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials to adapt to different environmental conditions.

Application scope:

Metal braided expansion joints are commonly used in pipeline systems, especially in areas that require compensation for thermal expansion and vibration. They are widely used in industries such as chemical, petroleum, natural gas, heating and refrigeration systems.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:

1. It can effectively absorb the thermal expansion, vibration, and deformation of pipeline systems.
2. Provides a certain degree of freedom of movement for the pipeline system.
3. Corrosion resistant, suitable for harsh environments.

Disadvantages

1. The cost is high, especially for large and customized expansion joints.
2. Regular inspections and maintenance may be necessary to ensure its normal operation.

When selecting and using these components, it is best to consider their advantages and disadvantages based on the specific project requirements and environmental conditions.
