- Lap Joint Flange: Thaum tsis featuring ib tug tsa flange ntsej muag zoo li nws cov counterparts, lub puab tsaig sib koom flange muab kev yooj yim los ntawm kev tso cai yooj yim ntawm kev sib dhos ntawm lub qhov ntsia hlau. Nws yog qhov kev xaiv zoo tshaj plaws rau cov tshuab uas xav tau kev tshem tawm tsis tu ncua.
Unveiling cov khoom sib txawv ntawm Flanges
Kev xaiv cov khoom siv rau flanges yog ib qho kev ua las voos uas muaj kev sib raug zoo nrog cov yeeb nkab thiab kev ua haujlwm. Cov khoom siv zoo li stainless hlau, nrum hlau, aluminium, thiab forged carbon steel txhua coj lawv cov khoom tshwj xeeb rau lub rooj. Tab sis qhov ntawd tsis yog qhov kawg ntawm zaj dab neeg. Flanges tseem tuaj yeem suav nrog cov khoom sib txawv sab hauv, tsim dab tsi hu ua “lined flanges.” Txoj hauv kev tshiab no txhim kho kev sib raug zoo nrog ntau yam nruab nrab thiab nthuav dav cov kev siv.
Navigating Standards: ASME thiab ASTM
Hauv ntiaj teb ntawm flanges, kev ua raws li cov qauv yog qhov tseem ceeb. American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) thiab American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) teeb tsa cov qauv ntsuas rau qhov ntev thiab cov khoom zoo, raws.
- ASME B16.5: Cov qauv no meticulously txhais qhov ntev ntawm flanges, ua kom muaj kev sib haum xeeb thoob plaws hauv kev lag luam. Nws yog lub compass guiding engineers hauv kev tsim flange kev sib txuas uas haum zoo li hnab looj tes.
- ASTM Cov Khoom Siv Txheej Txheem: ASTM cov kauj ruam los txheeb xyuas cov khoom zoo uas yuav tsum tau ua flange ntau lawm. Kev xaiv cov khoom siv tsis yog txhaj tshuaj hauv qhov tsaus ntuj, tab sis qhov kev txiav txim siab paub zoo txhawb nqa los ntawm cov qauv nruj.
Ib Visual Insight: Vuam Neck Flange hauv Focus
Cia peb saib ze dua ntawm ib hom flange tshwj xeeb: Lub Vuam Neck Flange. Xav txog qhov Weld Neck Flange nrog NPS (Nominal Pipe Loj) ntawm 6, nyob rau Class 150, thiab ua raws li Schedule 40 ASME B16.5. Qhov flange no ua piv txwv txog kev ua tib zoo saib xyuas kom meej tias ASME cov qauv coj mus rau lub rooj. Ntawm no yog ib daim duab mermaid uas qhia txog nws cov qauv:
