Thefunction of a SPRING hanger is to provide continuous support for thepipe in all positions and relieve pipe stresses which could reach criticalproportions in the pipe itself or in connected purpose of this catalog is to provide clearly detailed informationfrom which suitable SPRING units can be selected for the widest possiblevariety of engineering staff will be pleased to review your pipe suspensionproblems with you, whether they apply to high temperature power plantpiping or to cryogenic applications with temperatures to -320 RIGID,ArSPRING PRINCIPLEAS RECEIVED IN FIELDAND ERECTEDINSTALLEDasaRIGID HANGERThe locked SPRING assembly supportsand holds the erected pipe atCOLD POSITION* side-lockingboltsAFTER HYDROSTATICPIPE LINE TESTOPERATESasaSPRING HANGERWith lock-bolts removed the SPRING isfree to support pipe as it expands toHOT POSITIONSPRING PRINCIPLEThe RIGID.

2 00` SPRING employs a unique design which overcomes the manydifficulties inherent inthe installation of variable SPRING helical SPRING in each unit is pre-set in ourshop to the pipe "cold load" position and is lockedagainst deflection UP or DOWN* until the pipe line is ready for operation, at which time the side-locking bolts are RIGID rSPRING therefore provides support to the pipe;(1)In its installed (COLD) position.(2)During expansion from COLD to HOT position.(3)At its operating'(HOT) INSTRUCTIONSI nstall the RIGID,rSPRING as if it were a component part of a simple rigid pipe hanger . Take upall slack in the hanger rod, and then tighten the upper and lower hanger rod lock the pipe line and all HANGERS are completely erected, and the hydrostatic test made, remove theside-locking bolts from the housing and the SPRING is free to further adjustment the SPRING will accurately support the pipe as the pipe expands to itsoperating (HOT) event that the pipe line is required to be dismantled, replace the side-locking bolts in the RIGID ~ SPRING housing and thespring unitcan be easily removed and stpred for re-use.
