Temporary support for decoke - 12/09/09 12:38 PM

Hi ,

such a line under decoking process , for the case of disassembly how temporary supports can be provided in vertical displacement of operating -9mm and for sustain -19 mm ? In sustained spring can not take the weight of pipe when it's disassembled and pipe is trying to go down.

On equipment connections can we allow pipe to create a deflection more than 13mm. when pipe is disassembled ?

Thanks..

You should aim to install temporary supports such that the pipe remains exactly where you want it to be, and remains there in a safe condition. It may need horizontal restraint in addition to temp. weight support.

I'm not sure what you are asking regarding equipment connections.
