Description

Bellows unloaded expansion joint (SKR) is a expansion joint with a balancing bellows and external rods that compensates for axial movements without transferring the spacer force from internal pressure to fixed supports and equipment.

The unloaded circuit reduces the load on the supports and pipes of equipment (pumps, turbines), which is important for large-diameter and high-pressure pipelines.

OnePROM manufactures a control panel for the parameters of the object: diameter, pressure, temperature and axial stroke. The exact parameters are based on the questionnaire.

How we work

Selection

We receive the questionnaire or specification and select the type and parameters.

Calculation and quotation

We calculate the compensating capacity and prepare a quotation.

Manufacturing

We manufacture the expansion joint to project parameters under quality control.

Delivery and installation

We ship to site and, where required, provide installation, installation supervision and commissioning.

Frequently asked questions

What is TFR and where is it applied?

Compensation without transfer of spacer forces from pressure on supports and equipment. Balancing bellows and rods. Used in: heating networks and heat supply, steam pipelines, process pipelines, hot water and HVAC systems, boiler houses and central heating plants, oil and gas facilities.

What diameters, pressure, and temperature does the TFR allow?

The TFR is manufactured according to the parameters of the object: nominal diameter 50-800 mm (up to 3000 mm on request); working pressure up to 25 kgf/cm2; higher on request; temperature up to +450 °C; working medium — water, steam, gas, petroleum products and other non-aggressive media.
