Connection issues of stainless steel fittings in seawater desalination
Thread Content
In reverse osmosis systems, grooved fittings are often used, connected via clamps. I’m not quite sure how grooved connections can be applied to stainless steel fittings such as elbows, tees, and reducers. As for how to connect these fittings to the stainless steel pipes, I thought that the joints of the stainless steel pipes could also be made grooved, but I haven’t come across any such stainless steel pipes. When I asked the suppliers, they only had fittings with grooved connections; the stainless steel pipes all came with standard joints. I would like to ask experts here about this issue. If such products exist, could you please provide the website of a supplier? I’m currently working on a seawater desalination project, and there are many things I don’t understand. Thank you! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Is there no expert who can answer this? Don’t they know?
The pipe fittings and pipes are connected together using pipe clamps
Stainless steel has relatively high strength. Plasma cutting is used throughout the cutting process. It is even more unrealistic to machine threads during piping. The pipe fittings have the processing capabilities at the manufacturer’s site.
