Stratoflex High Pressure Swivel Joints for the Aerospace Industry
Product catalog summary
Overview: This document details high-pressure swivel joints used in aerospace applications by Parker Hannifin Corporation's Stratoflex Products Division. It stresses the importance of proper selection and use to prevent hazards.
Applications: Swivel joints are used in systems requiring torsional rotation, such as retractable landing gears and cargo door actuators, and are compatible with various fluid systems like MIL-H-83282 and Skydrol hydraulics.
Materials and Specifications: The body is made from titanium or CRES, with ball bearings from CRES 440. Seals are tailored to fluid and temperature requirements. The joints are qualified for over 100,000 swivel cycles at 4000 PSIG.
Design and Operation: The joints offer smooth, low-torque operation and are available with PTFE lined hoses. Custom designs are available for specific applications.
Safety and Selection Guide: A comprehensive safety guide is included for selecting and using hoses and fittings, highlighting risks like explosion and fluid contact. Users must ensure compatibility and safety.
Technical Specifications: Detailed specifications include pressure ranges (operating at 4000 PSIG, proof at 6000 PSIG, and burst at 12000 PSIG) and operating temperatures (-65°F to +275°F).
Hose and Fitting Selection: Key considerations include electrical conductivity, pressure, suction, temperature, fluid compatibility, permeation, size, routing, environment, mechanical loads, and physical damage. Proper end fitting and length are crucial.
Assembly and Installation Instructions: Guidelines for pre-installation, periodic inspection, and assembly are provided, emphasizing adherence to specifications and cleanliness.
Additional Considerations: The document addresses fire-resistant fluids, radiant heat, welding, and atomic radiation, emphasizing appropriate precautions and material selection.
Specifications and Procedures: Hose assemblies should not be exposed to atomic radiation. Pre-installation checks are required, and only Parker fittings should be used with Parker hoses unless authorized. Proper assembly instructions must be followed.
Inspection and Maintenance: Regular inspection programs must be established. Immediate shutdown and replacement are required if certain conditions are observed. System checks should include tightening, repairing, or replacing leaking ports.
Safety and Handling: High-pressure fluids are dangerous; extreme caution is required. In case of hose failure, equipment should be shut down immediately. Never locate leaks by touch.
Terms and Conditions of Sale: Sales are governed by Parker's terms, including payment, delivery, warranty, and liability limitations. Modifications require written acceptance.
Intellectual Property Rights and Indemnification: The Seller agrees to defend and cover costs for claims against the Buyer alleging infringement of third-party Intellectual Property Rights, contingent upon timely notification.
Force Majeure: The Seller is not liable for delays due to circumstances beyond control, such as natural disasters or material shortages.
Entire Agreement and Governing Law: The terms and any amendments constitute the entire agreement, governed by Ohio law.
