STEEL EXPANSION JOINT TYPE SF-20

Product catalog summary
Applications
The SF-20 steel expansion joint is designed for lateral expansion in pipes ranging from DN 32 to DN 500. It is vacuum-proof and features a short-length design with stainless steel bellows and rotable flanges. The joint is suitable for compensating lateral movement and reducing tension in various systems, including pumps, engines, and machines. It is applicable in industrial settings, gas and water supply, exhaust systems, heating installations, and drinking water systems.
Specifications
The expansion joint includes multiple convolution bellows available in various stainless steel grades, with options for single or multi-ply structures. Rotable flanges with tie rods are included to absorb reaction forces. The joint is designed to comply with technical instructions regarding reaction force, moving force, and fixed point load.
Materials and Corrosion Protection
Standard tie rods are made of grade 8.8, with options for stainless steel. Corrosion protection includes electro-galvanization, anti-corrosion priming, hot-dip galvanization, and special coatings. The material grades and their temperature resistances are specified, with stainless steel grades suitable for temperatures from -196°C to +550°C, and heat-resistant steel grades up to +900°C.
Pressure Ratings
The standard pressure ratings are PN 10 and PN 16, with other sizes, lengths, or pressure ratings available upon request.
Certifications
The product is certified by CE (PED 2014/68/EU), American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, DVGW (DN 32 – DN 200), DNV GL®, and RINA.
Accessories
Available accessories include internal guide sleeves, protective tubes, and gas sealings for DVGW applications.
Technical Data
The document provides detailed technical data for various DN sizes, including lateral movement, spring rate, friction force, and dimensions of flanges and bellows. The data is specified for a temperature of +20°C and a maximum allowable pressure pulsation of 1.0 bar.
