Large-diameter rubber soft joints are a commonly used rubber compensator, which is widely used in shock absorption and sound reduction of pipelines, valves and other equipment. Proper operation of large-bore rubber soft joints is essential to guarantee their longevity and performance. The following will introduce the correct operation method of large-diameter rubber soft joints.
1. Confirm the specifications and models.
Before using large-diameter rubber soft joints, it is first necessary to confirm whether their specifications and models match the connected pipes, valves and other equipment. Different specifications and models of rubber soft joints have different properties such as pressure resistance, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., and improper use may lead to joint damage or equipment failure.
2. Check the appearance quality.
Before installation, the appearance quality of large-diameter rubber soft joints should be carefully inspected to ensure that there are no defects such as breakage, cracks, bubbles, etc. At the same time, it is necessary to check whether the rubber material meets the relevant standards to ensure the performance and life of the joint.
3. Correct installation.
1.During the installation process, it should be ensured that the connection between the rubber soft joint and the pipeline, valve and other equipment is clean and dry, and there are no impurities such as oil stains and water stains.
2.Place the rubber soft fitting on the pipe or valve that needs to be connected, ensuring that the connection at both ends is flat and tight, and avoiding twisting or unevenness.
3.Use suitable fasteners such as bolts or fasteners to secure the joint with the pipe or valve to ensure that the connection does not loosen or displace.
4.During installation, care should be taken to avoid overstretching or compressing the rubber soft joint, so as not to affect its performance and service life.
4. Precautions.
1.During use, the connection of large-diameter rubber soft joints should be checked regularly to ensure that there is no loosening or breakage.
2.For rubber soft joints with directionality, they should be installed in accordance with the specified direction to ensure their normal operation.
3.During use, care should be taken to avoid contact with sharp objects to avoid scratching or damaging the rubber surface.
4.During storage, direct sunlight and humid environments should be avoided so as not to affect the properties of the rubber material.
