The 54″ suction line carrying gas to a gas compressor at a rate of 1.7 million lb./hr. developed a severe vibration. The deflections in the line were up to 3/4″ and it was fully observable during operation.

PT&P designed and manufactured a special elevated hold-down clamp, including a unique laminated vibration dampening lining. The entire pipe hanger assembly stands 22′ high and is coated with a carboline zinc finish. After installation and resumption of operations, the vibrations are now almost imperceptible.

Structural Supports Coated with Red Oxide Primer for a Power Plant
September 1, 2010

Structural Supports Coated with Red Oxide Primer for a Power Plant

The structural pipe supports are fabricated from carbon steel and coated with red oxide primer. The structural steel will be stored in a warehouse for several months while the power plant is being built. Due to the plant’s location along the United States East Coast, the use of the red oxide primer was selected. Also, modifications were made to our standard “insulation saddles” to allow for a higher load capacity; which can be seen in the foreground of the image above.

Billet Style Clevises & Turnbuckles for Temperatures up to 1000ºF for a Power Plant
December 8, 2009

Billet Style Clevis
Billet Style Clevis

The clevis and turnbuckle pictured are each fabricated from individual solid pieces of 304H stainless steel. The 304H material, which has a maximum carbon content of 0.06%, was required because these items are designed to be used in an environment with temperatures up to 1000ºF. The customer’s specifications mandated that no welding would be allowed on either the clevises or turnbuckles. Additionally, no forgings were readily available, so blocks of 304H stainless steel were utilized in this design.

Billet Style Turnbuckle
Billet Style Turnbuckle

Both the clevises and turnbuckles are made to accommodate rod diameter ranges between 1-1/4″ to 1-3/4″. These components have a maximum load capacity of 18,600 lb. The clevises measure 3″ thick x 5-1/4″ wide x 10-5/8″ tall. The turnbuckles measure 2″ thick x 4″ wide x 9-1/4″ tall. Prior to fabrication, each component was modeled using finite element analysis to determine that stress levels are within the acceptable range.
