Sometimes your pipeline may need to be put on hold temporarily or maybe even permanently. This is where duplex stainless steel blind flanges come in handy.
These duplex stainless steel flanges can be used to build a pipeline and they can be used to repair a pipeline to stop fluid from flowing. These can also be utilized to discontinue a pipeline without causing any damage to the pipeline itself.
So How Are They Put Together?
Good question! Typically, these duplex stainless steel flanges are constructed just like any kind of duplex stainless steel flange with mounting holes that goes around the circumference of the gasket seal and pipe and are then machined into the surface. Take into consideration that a blind flange doesn’t have any openings that will allow to fluids to go through.
The duplex stainless steel flange’s face is either raised or flat, all depending on how the system is designed or the preferences of an engineer.
You should consult with your supplier for advice and specifics on how to install your duplex stainless steel blind flanges. It’s also a great idea to buy these duplex stainless steel flanges while you are still in the process of installing your system, so you can ensure the proper fit for your system, avoiding expensive repairs in the future.
How to Find the Right Size
You need to find the right size to ensure that a successful seal is made. Leaks will happen if you do not take this into consideration.
You need to understand the standards that are being used. Consult with a good system designer or a vessel engineer. They know the standards. Remember that there are many engineering standards utilized to manufacture duplex stainless steel flanges that ensure consistency. These standards size, dimension, pressure, how components are created, and control the quantity of holes to be installed onto the surface.
Most manufacturers of this material either use ANSI (American National Standards Institute), JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards), and DIN (German Institute for Standardization).
Measurement of Duplex Stainless Steel Blind Flanges
Being conscious of the right standard will help you determine the correct measuring tool to use when determining the size of your duplex stainless steel flanges. Use the right system of measurement. Remember that metric doesn’t convert to inches.
So what you need to do now is measure the outside and inside diameters of your pipeline. Inner diameter is crucial due to the fact that duplex stainless steel flanges normally have an equivalent pipe size as specified by accepted standards. The pipe that’s connected should fit inside your duplex stainless steel blind flanges.
When constructing your system, you need a universal or common design. As long as the proper diameter and standards are put into practice, any duplex stainless steel pipes may be used with any pipeline.
