CHEMICAL/PETROCHEMICAL CASE
In petrochemical facilities, expansion joints play a vital role in the piping systems linked to reactors, distillation columns, and heat exchangers. They accommodate thermal expansion and contraction resulting from temperature variations throughout different processing phases. To ensure durability and dependability, specialized materials that resist corrosive chemicals are frequently used. In petrochemical facilities, piping systems often endure high temperatures and high pressures. Vibration isolators effectively reduce vibrations generated by equipment, protecting the piping system from damage and ensuring stable fluid transport.
In the petrochemical industry, Songjiang rubber expansion joints and vibration isolators can provide high-quality solutions, as follows:
Rubber Expansion Joints Solution
High-Temperature and Corrosion-Resistant Materials: Select suitable rubber materials to ensure the durability of expansion joints in high-temperature and corrosive environments. For example, EPDM and fluorocarbon rubber are resistant to high temperatures and acidic or alkaline corrosion. NBR rubber is resistant to various hydraulic oils and petroleum corrosion. PTFE lining can withstand strong acids and alkalis.
Custom Design: Provide customized sizes and configurations based on the specific requirements of the piping system to suit different installation environments.
Vibration Isolators Solution
High-Efficiency Vibration Isolation: Provide specially designed vibration isolators that effectively reduce vibrations generated during equipment operation, protecting pipelines and equipment from damage.
Adaptability to Dynamic Loads: The design of the isolators should accommodate the dynamic load variations of petrochemical equipment, ensuring the stability and safety of the machinery.
Improved Operating Environment: By lowering vibration and noise levels, the operating environment is enhanced, increasing the comfort and safety of employees.
