Transvac Systems Limited (<a href="http://www.transvac.co.uk/">www.transvac.co.uk</a>) are a leading manufacturer of ejector systems supplied to various industries including Oil & Gas, Water Treatment, Nuclear, Fine Chemical and Petrochemical. Ejectors work by using a high pressure fluid to entrain and compress a low pressure fluid to a higher discharge pressure. They contain no moving parts. The applied forces cause high dynamic loads, in excess of its relatively low static load. The resulting high impact operation will cause considerable noise and vibration if left unisolated or if mounted incorrectly.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Background</span></b><br />
Transvac approached Tiflex requiring a technical solution for their installations. Almost every ejector installation is unique and therefore the solution needed to isolate them needs to be tailored to suit. Using their years of technical experience, the Tico technical team were able to recommend a tailored solution of suitable materials and installation guidance that meet the requirements of the end user by providing optimum isolation.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Impressive Technical Support</span></b><br />
The engineers at Transvac were extremely impressed with the overall service and especially the ongoing technical support provided by the TICO team. They have confirmed that TICO products will be their first port of call for anti-vibration solution requirements for future projects.<br />
<br />
The above Ejector is commissioned & operating on an offshore platform, operated by NAM/Shell, in the Southern North Sea. Our TICO RF/PA pads and PF/WA washers were suitably selected for this project due to the high dynamic load produced by the Ejector.<br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Pipelines are subject to vibrations caused by movement of
the pipes contents and additionally from the connecting machinery such as
pumps. Whilst these vibrations are
common, they can eventually lead to a failure of the pipe or another integral part
of the line such as valves.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">TICO encased U-bolts are designed to dampen and isolate the
vibrations running through the pipeline solving an existing problem directly or
as a safety guard for preventing one.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Machines and pumps that generate force by rotation will
often cause steady-state type vibrations that will carry on occurring until the
problem is solved because it is the machine itself that is causing the noise
during its operation. TICO offer a </span><span style="color: red; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://anti-vibration.solutions/tico-pipe-support-grip.php" target="_blank"><b>Grip type U-bolt</b></a> </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">to counter these vibrations by gripping the pipe in place and
absorbing the movement in the pipeline with great success.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Vibrations that exist randomly and infrequently are known as
transient vibration and will often be produced by a part of the pipeline that
outputs shock waves and larger than normal forces causing potential (and often
serious) failures if left untreated.
These transient vibrations are less predictable and may not occur
routinely making them harder to fix. Transient
vibrations can be mitigated by using TICO’s <a href="http://anti-vibration.solutions/tico-pipe-support-guide.php" target="_blank"><b>Guide type U-bolts</b></a>, these utilise
PTFE surfaces to allow for movement within the pipe thus accommodating any
unexpected forces.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It is always best to have an engineer check and monitor the
vibrations within the pipe line to be sure of which type of vibration is
prevalent and apply the appropriate U-bolt to solve the issue.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
