The problems needing attention in the process of flange installation.

As we all know, flanges are widely used. The vast majority of flanges are used in engineering, most of which are used in oil and gas engineering. Most purchasers buy finished flanges of various models and standards from Shanxi Haokun flange Group Co., Ltd. After the purchaser purchases the flange, the salesman places an order with the factory, and technicians specially make the flange production drawings, and then the flange production drawings are transferred to the workshop. After blanking, machining, forging, heat treatment, surface treatment, packaging and other links, they are delivered from the factory to the corresponding port on the scheduled date. After the flange is delivered, the flange data in the form of bill of lading, certificate of origin, 3.1b certificate and other documents shall be provided to the customer in time. After the ship arrives at the port of the customer's country, the customer takes away the flange purchased by himself for use. Most of the flanges used by customers are not used directly and need to be installed. However, there are some precautions for installation. If you don't pay attention to them, it may affect the service value of the flange. Shanxi Haokun flanges Group Co., Ltd. introduces the problems needing attention in the process of flange installation.


1. First, before taking out the purchased flange, it is necessary to slightly clean the appearance of the flange, especially the sealing surface of the flange.


2. When preparing to install the flange, the customer should put the end of the pipe to be connected into the inner diameter of the flange for a few centimeters before welding the flange and the corresponding pipe. If it is a horizontal pipe, the flange shall be welded from the top, and then the welding position of the flange shall be checked and calibrated from the vertical angle in different directions, so that the sealing surface is perpendicular to the centerline of the pipe. At the same time, pay attention to the correct spot welding during welding.


3. Use a square to check the position of the flange on the left and right, and fix the flange through the third and fourth spot welding.


4. In many cases, flanges need to be used in pairs. When flanges are used in pairs, the bolt holes of the flanges should be aligned with the corresponding bolt holes of the fixed flanges and parallel to the fixed flanges. The deviation should not be less than 1.5%. The outer diameter of each flange is very large and not more than 2mm.


5. When selecting the matching flange, be sure to pay attention to the consistency between the diameter of the flange and the outer diameter of the part to be connected, so as to ensure the tightness.
