The leg of the T forms a rib that is held by thehub faces as the connectionis madeup. The two armsform lip seals that create anarea of sealing surface withthe inner surface of the pressure works toreinforce this seal. Two Hubs The clamp fitsover the two hubs and forcesthem against the seal ring rib. As the hubs are drawntogether by the clampassembly, the seal ring lipsdeflect against the inner sealing surfaces of the deflection elasticallyloads the lips of the seal ringagainst the inner sealing surface of the hub, forming a self-energized seal.

4 Clamp Assembly Designed to provide nearly360 clamping contact withthe hubs. A relief notch in the center of the clamp segments allow even distri-bution of makeup forces. No specific orientation isrequired when the Grayloc Connector SealsSeal Ring LipClamping SurfaceRibUnder pressure : Grayloc Connector vs. FlangeRib of the seal ring is clamped between hub faces. Lips ofthe seal ring engage inner hub surface in an interference fitwhich deflects the lips to achieve a acts directly on the flange faces reducing seal pressure energizes the Grayloc seal lips, reinforcing the seal. The simplicity, sealing efficiency,and economy of the Grayloc connector benefits a wide range of industries in various applications: Petrochemical Industry Reactor vessel nozzles, vessel closures, general piping / valve ends in petro-leum refining and chemicalprocessing plants. Synthetic Fuels, CoalGasification, and CoalLiquefaction General piping, vessel closures, reactor vessels, and valve ends.

5 Power Industry General piping / valve ends,steam lines, pump inlet /outlet lines, and chemicalclean out closures. Oil and Gas Production Onshore and offshore well-heads, tees and ells, mani-folds, chokes, valve ends,compressors, general piping,loading risers and pipelines. Marine Subsea piping and riser systems, floatingproduction, storage, offload-ing (FPSO) vessels, andtanker loading and unloadingfacilities. Aerospace Rocket test stands, fuel lines,hydraulic and pneumatic piping systems. Food Processing Sanitary/general piping connectors, vessel closuresand valve ends. Environmental Hazard waste disposal and fugitive emissions Connector ApplicationsThe Office of Coal Research, Department of the Interior, and the American Gas Association jointly sponsored a program to develop coal gasification technology. On this pre-quench tower for raw gas purification, two Grayloc vessel closures and several smaller Grayloc connectors were used for pressures of 1,650 psi and temperatures to 650 courtesy of the Institute of Gas use of Grayloc connectors, on a Centex Oil and Gas, Inc.

7 XX pipe and subjected to a 2"cold bend, 36" on center connector did not leak andclamp bolting remained tightCompression In normal piping applications,it is not possible to overloadthe Grayloc connector or sealring in compression When very high compressiveloads occur, the maximumload on the connector isdetermined by the limit of the pipe In most cases, the area of the seal ring rib is equal to or larger than that of the cross section of adjoining pipeAnything the pipe can take, so can the Grayloc ConnectorTension, Compression, BendingWhen manufactured from the same material as the pipe, the Grayloc connector surpasses thestrength of the pipe and that of most other components that may be rib of the seal ring prevents the seal lip from being crushed by over-tightening. While it acts as a positive stop during makeup, the rib also transfers compressive and bending loads from one hub element to another.

8 The rib bearing area is ample to carry the most severe loading that a piping system can ExtremesVibration, heat, cold and thermalshock often accompany servicein which Grayloc connectorsare heavily loaded. Grayloc connectors consistently with-stand severe situations withoutroutine maintenance. Specialdesigns permit maintenance-free service even under theextreme conditions shown in the of Grayloc connector applications in extreme service conditions7 The Grayloc connector is significantly lighter and smallerthan a comparably rated ANSIor API ring joint flange connec-tion, providing an opportunity to design lightweight, compact systems. Close piping andhookup arrangements can be easily made as the clamp completely rotates around the hub.

9 Usually, 3 to 8 Grayloc connectors can beassembled/disassembled in the same time as one flange connection. No bolt holes to align Only 4 bolts to tighten (8 -24for a conventional flange) Torque required as much as 70% lower than for a RTJ flangeMaintenance is simple with only four bolts to remove. Noperiodic re-tightening of bolts is required once the connector is in necessary inventory ofspare parts is significantly reduced since the Grayloc connector is sized according to pipe size, schedule, and service. In most instances, onlyone Grayloc connector size isnecessary for each pipe sizeand seal rings can be DesignThe standard Grayloc assemblyhas two hubs arranged for buttwelding to pipe. However, acomplete line of other pipingcomponents is available formost pipe sizes and serviceconditions.
