The correct installation method of metal bellows mainly includes the following steps:
Check whether the model and specifications of the bellows meet the requirements to ensure that they meet the actual needs of the pipeline, and have the characteristics of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and pressure resistance.
Before installation, install a support. The support should be properly equipped according to the weight of the corrugated pipe and the length of the pipe to ensure the correct installation of the corrugated pipe.
The layout of the pipeline should be reasonably designed, taking into account the placement of the pipeline and ventilation, in order to extend the service life of the bellows.
Select the appropriate connection method according to the connection method, such as flange connection and clamp connection, and ensure the fastness and tightness of the connection.
During the installation process, it is also necessary to take into account the impact of natural disaster factors such as earthquakes on the operation of the pipeline, and take anti-seismic measures to ensure the safe operation of the pipeline.
After the installation is completed, it is necessary to carry out acceptance work to check whether the layout, connection, support and shock-proof measures of the pipeline meet the requirements, and carry out pressure testing to ensure the safe operation of the pipeline.
In addition, the following matters should be noted during installation:
· Ensure that the installation location has enough space, and remove debris and dirt to keep the surface smooth and clean.
· When installing metal bellows, avoid direct contact with the pipe or flange, so as not to affect its strength.
· When using the gas stove, pay attention to maintaining a well-ventilated environment, and close the gas valve in time to avoid accidents.
· When installing metal bellows, special tools should be used to tighten the bolts to the specified torque range, and no arbitrary force tightening should be allowed.
· For large-caliber metal bellows, the installation and construction work can be completed by applying a support to support them firmly and smoothing them with cement mortar.
The above steps and precautions combine information from multiple sources to ensure the correct and safe installation of metal bellows.
