Under what circumstances are metal flexible pipes needed at the pump’s inlet and outlet? Is there any regulation somewhere, like 617 or something?
1 If the force and torque exerted by the pipeline on the pump nozzle exceed the requirements of the pump, it is necessary to modify the pipeline layout in order to reduce the force and torque on the pump nozzle. 2 One simple method for achieving this using soft or flexible connections is to employ metal hoses. 3 The use of metal hoses is feasible only if their pressure-bearing capacity is sufficient to handle the pressure and corresponding temperature of the medium; when the diameter is large, it is also necessary to check whether the force exerted by the medium on the pump nozzle meets the required standards
