A dismantling piece is a specialized connection element designed to facilitate the removal of valves, pumps, or other equipment in a pipeline system. It is typically positioned between flanged connection systems to provide flexibility between two points. The tolerance differences required during installation can be accommodated with this component. Additionally, when maintenance or replacement is needed, only the relevant equipment can be removed without disturbing the entire system.
For this reason, dismantling pieces play an important role in both new pipeline installations and the maintenance of existing systems. Being manufactured to withstand high pressure and temperature makes them suitable for industrial applications.
Where Are Dismantling Pieces Used?
Dismantling pieces are used in a wide range of industries and applications. They are especially important in situations requiring system safety and ease of intervention.
-
In water treatment facilities, they are preferred to ensure leak-tightness during valve replacement or maintenance.
-
In industrial pipelines, they are used to allow easy removal of equipment such as pumps or meters.
-
In power plants, they are used to adjust the spacing between flanges in high-pressure systems.
-
In firefighting systems, they are used to enable rapid maintenance operations.
-
In oil and gas pipelines, they provide system flexibility and enable secure connections.
In short, dismantling pieces are essential in any pipeline carrying liquids or gases, particularly at points where maintenance and intervention may be required.
What Are the Technical Specifications?
Dismantling pieces can be produced with different technical specifications depending on the application. These specifications directly impact the performance and durability of the product.
-
Body Material: Cast iron, ductile iron, or stainless steel
-
Connection Type: Flanged
-
Pressure Rating: PN10, PN16, or PN25
-
Sealing Gasket: EPDM or NBR
-
Size Range: DN50 – DN1000
-
Installation Type: Fixed or adjustable length
Each dismantling piece undergoes compliance testing according to relevant standards and is provided with a leak-tightness guarantee.
Why Are Dismantling Pieces Preferred?
Without a dismantling piece, removing a valve or pump from the system may require disassembling the entire pipeline, leading to time loss and high costs. However, with dismantling pieces, these components can be easily removed from the system and replaced with new parts without difficulty.
Additionally, pipeline shifts caused by thermal expansion or mechanical stress can be absorbed by this piece, preventing potential leak issues in the system. These advantages make dismantling pieces both economical and functional.
