- Hello everyone, I would like to welcome you to our Webinar on Constant Spring Supports. The Webinar today is hosted by Piping Technology & Products. I am __________________________ and I will be your presenter. Optional: Your normal presenter, Jerry Godina is on a field service call and could not make it today to present, so I will be standing in for him. Also, if you have a question, please feel free to chat it to us during the presentation in the text box you see to the right of the presentation or if you prefer, you can ask questions after the presentation during our “Questions and Answers Session.”
- For those of you who are unfamiliar with PT&P, I want to quickly go over some background information. If you would like to know more, please visit our “About Us” section at pipingtech.com. Our parent company, Piping Technology & Products, Inc., also known as PT&P, is a member of MSS, SPED, and APFA In business since 1975, Piping Technology & Products, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (US Bellows, Sweco Fab, Pipe Shields, and Anchor Darling) offer a wide range of engineered products and services for various industries and applications.

- Pipe Hangers are designed to control: Longitudinal weight stress in the piping system without creating additional stresses Piping system loads on equipment without limiting or reducing static loads Hanger loads on building structure And physical clearances of hanger components with piping and structure Let’s look at the basic steps in the hanger design: Step 1 is to determine the location of all the hangers Then calculate the hanger loads due to the piping weight Next calculate the thermal movement of the piping at each hangers location Step 4 is to select the hanger type and finally check all clearances
- The way a variable spring support responds to an applied load depends on the coil or coils inside the casing. Each coil arrangement has a spring rate expressed in units of pounds/inch (or kilograms/millimeters) of compression. The required coil size is determined by load while the required number of coils (length) is determined by the anticipated range of movement. A longer coil or coils placed in series will provide greater travel for similar loads. We use PTP-1, PTP-2, PTP-4, PTP-6, and PTP-8 to designate the five standard coil arrangements we employ to increase the working range of travel of variable supports.
- The Load and Travel Tables are color-coded to identify the travel and spring rates for each PTP figure number.* These tables can be used to select the PTP Figure Number and size required for a particular application. The twenty-three columns designated 00, 10, 20, ..., 220 identify the size and spring rate of coils used in the variables. The larger numbers have higher spring rates and are used to support greater loads. The recommended working range of loads for each size is shown between the red lines in the tables. The center of the working range is colored blue. Selecting variables with the loads within the working range provides a reserve above and below to insure the coil can function inside the casing. In using the Load and Travel Table to choose the proper variable support, it is best to have the operating (hot) load and an amount and direction of expected movement. Variability is a key criterion in selecting the figure number and size.
- Example: Given the following design parameters: A.) Operating Load: 3000 B.) Installed Load: 3300 C.) Movement: ½&quot; Step 1: Determine a theoretical spring rate: ∆ Load / Movement (3300-3000)/ ½&quot; 600 Step 2: Review Load and Travel Table Chart
- Step 3: Review Load and Travel Table Chart Step 4: Check Variability Factor Variability is the percentage of change in the supporting force between the operating (hot) and installed (cold) positions calculated as shown: VARIABILITY = (Spring rate * movement ) /Operating Load VARIABILITY = (600 ∙ ½&quot;) / 3000 0.1 equal to 10% ≤ 25% Final Answer: PTP-2-130 Good practice, as specified by MSS SP-58, is to choose a support with variability less than or equal to 25%. Always try to choose a variable with the operating (hot) load near the center line (blue) of the working range in the Load and Travel Table. If you have a situation in which you cannot select a standard variable which has both the operating load and the installed load within the working range, contact us and we will help you determine alternatives.
- For the next three slides, we will go through the steps in loading a spring can. This particular spring can has a cut-away view for demonstration purposes. The first step is to check the hot and cold loads on the assembly drawing. The second step is to compress the spring to solid and release three times total. Then you will need to zero out the load cell before you compress the spring to the specified cold load. Mark the cold load location on the can, then measure for the travel stop length. Next you will need to compress the spring to the specified hot load.

- In the case you want to use your existing spring support, re-calibration is an option as long as the support is a constant spring support, in good operating condition, has an operating load range greater than fifteen thousand (15,000) pounds and the cost of field time and equipment is less than the cost of a new spring hanger.
- LEFT PIC: Constant Support in Jamaica-Travel Pin is Rusted and Decayed
- A few thoughts during shutdown: Are the lines and equipment temporarily supported while repairs are being made? To prevent having to readjust the spring, I need to re-install the travel stops. If the name plate is missing, stencil the proper installed and operating positions or provide loads for re-calibration.
- Remove this slide… does not flow when talking about services and then stopping and switching to an example
- Since we don’t have much time this evening, you may want to check out our website; there you will find a plethora of technical information, including different Tests we carry out, FEA Analysis, and much more.
- That concludes our Webinar on Constant Spring Supports…. I hope everyone enjoyed the presentation and as a reminder, we have a staff of experts standing by to answer any questions you may have. You can just chat them now while in session until the end of the hour, you can also send them to us by e-mail at info@pipingtech.com
