Control units

Tie-rod control units that limit the movement of rubber expansion joints and pump connectors to within their design limits.

Description

Expansion joints and pump connectors are not designed to support weight or limit pipe movement. Where abnormal temperature fluctuations, pressure surges or insufficient anchoring or guiding could cause excess movement, EVR control units limit the amount and direction of movement to within the flexible connection's design limits.

Key features

  • Adaptor plates bolted to the back of the mating pipe flanges
  • Tie rod connecting the plates limits axial extension
  • Optional sleeve where excess compression is anticipated
  • For use with EVR expansion joints and pump connectors

Applications

Piping systems subject to pressure surges, temperature swings or limited anchoring, where flexible connectors must be protected from over-extension or over-compression.
