Vibration Control & Sway brace

SIZE RANGE: For pipe sizes 2 through 24 inches. SERVICE: Recommended for controlling vibration, absorbing shock loadings; guiding or restraining the movement of pipe resulting from thermal expansion; bracing a pipe line against sway. INSTALLATION: Shipped ready for installation. ADJUSTMENT: The sway brace should be in the neutral position when the system is hot and operating, at which time the tension test collar should be hand tight. If it is not, the sway brace should be adjusted to the neutral position by use of the load coupling. The screws in the tension test collar need not be loosened, since they serve only to secure it to the load coupling. FEATURE: Vibration is opposed with an instantaneous counter force bringing the pipe back to normal position. A single energy-absorbing pre-loaded spring provides two way action. One spring saves space and simplifies design. Spring has 3-inch travel in either direction. Accurate neutral adjustment assured. Enclosed spring excludes dirt and gives a clean, compact appearance. SPECIFICATION: Fulfills the requirements of the ASA Code for Pressure Piping as to fabrication details and materials. ORDERING: Specify figure number, name, size, and overall dimension.
