Industries

Pharmaceutical

The pharmaceutical industry requires a high level of product purity, which can be compromised by contamination from the piping system. Pipe supports are used to ensure that the piping is properly installed and that there are no areas where the product can accumulate or become trapped.

  1. Supporting process piping: The pharmaceutical industry relies heavily on process piping to move raw materials, chemicals, and finished products through the production process. Pipe supports are used to securely hold and protect the piping, ensuring that it stays in place and does not sag or vibrate.
  2. Meeting regulatory requirements: The pharmaceutical industry is subject to a range of regulatory requirements that specify the types of materials and installation methods that must be used for piping systems. Pipe supports must be designed and installed in compliance with these regulations to ensure that the piping system is safe and effective.
  3. Preventing damage to piping: The harsh operating conditions in the pharmaceutical industry can cause pipes to move or vibrate, which can lead to damage over time. Pipe supports are used to prevent this damage by holding the piping in place and reducing vibration.
  4. Supporting equipment: Many types of equipment in the pharmaceutical industry are connected to piping systems, including pumps, tanks, and heat exchangers. Pipe supports are used to hold these components in place and ensure that they are properly connected to the piping.

Pulp & Paper

Pipe supports are essential components in the piping systems of the pulp and paper industry. Here are some of the ways pipe supports are used in this industry:

  1. Supporting process piping: The pulp and paper industry relies heavily on process piping to move raw materials, chemicals, and finished products through the production process. Pipe supports are used to securely hold and protect the piping, ensuring that it stays in place and does not sag or vibrate.
  2. Pipe supports are used to prevent this damage by holding the piping in place and reducing vibration.
  3. Protecting against thermal expansion: The high temperatures used in many parts of the pulp and paper production process can cause pipes to expand and contract. Pipe supports are used to absorb these movements and prevent damage to the piping or connected equipment.
  4. Meeting safety regulations:  By ensuring that all piping is properly supported, the industry can help prevent accidents and protect workers.

 

Water Industry

Pipe supports are used in the water treatment industry to support pipes and prevent them from being damaged. They can also be used to keep pipes in place and prevent them from vibrating or moving out of alignment. Pipe Supports are an important component of any water treatment system, as they help ensure the reliability and efficiency of the system. Pipe supports can be used in a variety of water treatment processes, including filtration, disinfection, and desalination.
