Under what circumstances are metal flexible pipes needed at the pump’s inlet and outlet? Are there any document standards specified?
First, it is necessary to clarify the principle and function of adding such a \"compensator\". As for the rules for finding files, it still depends on the needs.
The pipe size is relatively large; the pump is removed for maintenance to facilitate installation； When the temperature of the medium being transported is relatively high (such as heat transfer oil), this effect serves to compensate for thermal expansion and contraction; I’m not sure about the situation in other conditions
There are also situations where sedimentation is easy to occur, and stress is likely to be generated.
The main process consideration is vibration; there are also cases where no hoses are installed
Pumps with high vibration and shock, such as diaphragm pumps, should be equipped with flexible metal hoses.
