Installation - KAN-therm Inox Bedienungsanleitung

Installation

The axial bellow compensators may be mounted on horizontal and vertical pipelines,
placed along walls or in transitive and non-transitive heating ducts.
In case of installation in ducts, inspection openings should be provided to allow
access to the compensator.
If there is a risk of contamination of the thermally non-insulated compensator
elastic bellow, it should be protected with a cover against possible mechanical
contamination that may damage it by entering the space between the bellow waves.
If the bellow compensator is thermally insulated, additional cover should be used
to protect against entering of the insulation in the spaces between the bellow waves.
It is not allowed to mount more than one compensator between two neighboring
fixed points.
Sliding supports must completely cover the pipes without causing too much
resistance to the thermal movements of the pipeline. The maximum slack should
be no more than 1 mm.
To obtain the correct stability, compensator must be installed at a distance not
greather than 4 × d from the nearest fixed point.
Maximal distance from the compensator to the first sliding point should not exceed
4 × d.
Permissible deviation of the pipeline axis on both sides of the compensator must not
exceed 2 mm.
