Applications
- Flanges are metal rings bolted together to create seals between pipes, vessels, and other components. Leaks in these connections can have disastrous consequences, ranging from environmental damage to safety hazards.
- Traditional torque-based tightening methods often fail to achieve consistent pre-load on all bolts, leading to uneven pressure distribution and potential leakage points.
- Pipelines: Standard tensioners secure flanges in oil and gas pipelines, water distribution systems, and chemical processing plants, ensuring safe and reliable flow of fluids.
Pressure vessels: These tools play a crucial role in tightening flanges on vessels containing pressurized gases, liquids, or chemicals, crucial for safe operation and compliance with regulations.
- Heat exchangers: Flange connections in heat exchangers need precise pre-load to maintain optimal heat transfer and prevent energy loss or equipment damage.
