SoluGap: Como Funciona

Posicionar

Posicione o anel alinhando a margem externa com a circunferência interna do tubo

Colocar na Posição

Deslize o anel dentro do tubo para que as bordas possam encaixar-se no lugar perfeitamente, mantendo um espaço mínimo exigido de 1/16” ou mais de folga enquanto evita-se compressão.

Posicionar no Lugar

Uma vez seguro dentro do tubo, o anel ficará no lugar, mesmo que o encaixe seja lateral ou invertido

Solda

1. Incline o tubo antes de firmar para que não escorra
2. Firme a solda 3 ou 4 vezes mantendo a temperatura de interpasse adequada, especificação de código B31.3 ASME
3. Endireite o tubo após a primeira solda
4. Prossiga à solda não ultrapassando a temperatura de interpasse

Remoção

Introduza água quente ou fria para dissolver e remover todo o conteúdo, sem deixar resíduos no tubo; se preferir, basta deixar o espaçador no tubo, pois isso não causa efeitos adversos.

FAQs

Aquasol® Water Soluble Products, including SoluGap Water Soluble Socket Weld Spacer Rings, must be flushed with an aqueous solution or steam containing a certain percentage of water in order to be removed from the weld area. Please contact Aquasol for further information.

SoluGap Water Soluble Socket Weld Spacer Rings will not dissolve in oil or fuel. The products must be flushed with an aqueous solution or steam containing a certain amount of water in order to be removed from the weld area.

As metal pipes are heated and cooled, they expand and contract. Therefore, a minimum 1/16″ gap between the socket weld and the pipe is required to facilitate the fluctuation of the metal. Without this gap, cracking and loss of weld integrity can occur.

Typically, welders will spend time estimating the correct gap size, creating more room for error. With SoluGap, measuring and scribing are unnecessary. SoluGap is designed to create the perfect gap with ease by acting as a temporary space insert during welding that can later be flushed away by an aqueous solution.

Even with its firm structure, SoluGap is incompressible. For example, at 100 PSI compression load, SoluGap compresses by approximately 1 percent in thickness.

NOTE: This data was obtained through testing by the Aquasol engineering staff. The Aquasol Corporation recommends all users conduct their own tests, as this information is only a guideline for general reference purposes.

The heat temperature rating for SoluGap is approximately 400° F. This temperature rating should be sufficient, if all welding guidelines are adhered to for socket welds.

To ensure SoluGap Water Soluble Socket Weld Spacer Rings remain uncharred while welding and successfully dissolve during hydro testing, be sure not to exceed the interpass temperature of 300° F while following the proper ASME B31.3 code welding procedure.

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers provides companies with codes and standards, which cover a vast range of welding applications and processes. According to the ASME website, the organization has more than 130,000 members in 158 countries. Policy makers in Congress, the White House Office of Science and Technology and many key federal agencies look to the ASME for the latest engineering and technical information.

Aquasol® designed SoluGap to meet the standards and codes of the ASME in regards to its dimensions and other properties.
