Problems with the limiting frame
Thread Content
Regarding the pipelines on the pipe rack, are the pipe supports on both sides near the limit frame sliding supports or guiding supports?
The sliding frame, right? There are three differences: 1. Pipe sliding supports allow the pipe to undergo a certain amount of displacement in both radial and axial directions ； Guidance brackets, on the other hand, are different; they allow the pipeline to move axially. 2. A pipe sliding support is a type of support that restricts only the Z-axis (vertical) displacement of the pipe. A guide bracket is a pipe support that not only restricts the Z-axis displacement of the pipe but also limits its displacement in the X/Y axes, thereby restricting movement in both the axial and radial directions of the pipe. 3. Pipe sliding supports merely provide support for the pipes; during this process, they do not exert any reactive force on the pipes in the direction of expansion, whereas guiding supports do not behave in this way.
This recommendation should be considered in light of the overall setup of other pipe supports in the pipeline
