WN and PL flanges

2017-07-07View Original

Thread Content

At the construction site, during the pressure testing, it was discovered that the flange at the pump outlet butterfly valve was leaking. Upon closer inspection, it was found that PL flanges were being used. For the flanges of this specification in this project, the design documents and procurement documents specify WN flanges; where did these PL flanges come from? There are cracks on the flange; it must be a defective product. Could it be that scammers mixed in defective items when shipping them?

It’s very likely that substandard products are being passed off as good ones, or that the factory happens to have PL units with the right pressure levels that can be matched together, and so those are used instead

Quality is one aspect; there are also differences in craftsmanship and appearance. Different sizes cause leakage. The standards are chaotic. It wasn’t carried out in strict accordance with the pipeline standards

No one inspected the supplies when they arrived at the site? These two types of flanges differ greatly; it’s possible to tell the difference with a little attention during inspection

It wasn’t built according to the plans; this construction company isn’t reliable either

Use whatever is useful. . . Get what, use what
