Expansion joint flanged type ZKB DN50 149B12554C

Vibration isolation connector – reducing vibrations and noise in installations

The ZKB type flanged vibration isolation connector is a reliable solution for damping vibrations, compensating for length changes in installations, and reducing noise in piping systems. Made of high-quality materials, it provides effective protection against the negative effects of dynamic loads and temperature changes. It is a key element for ensuring long-term and trouble-free operation of installations, both in residential and industrial construction.

Design and application

The ZKB connector is characterized by a rubber-flanged design, where the damping element is made of EPDM, and the flanges are made of galvanized steel. This combination of materials provides flexibility and corrosion resistance. Designed for flanged connections, it is compatible with pipes with a diameter of DN50 and flanges drilled according to PN10 and PN16 standards. Thanks to its properties, it finds application in water, heating and industrial installations, where there is a risk of vibrations and noise.

Advantages and benefits

• Effective vibration damping: Reduces the transmission of vibrations from equipment to the building structure or other installation elements.
• Compensation for thermal expansion: Allows for free changes in the length of pipelines under the influence of temperature, minimizing stress in the system.
• Noise reduction: Reduces the noise level generated by the flowing medium or operating equipment.
• Protection against electric current conduction: Rubber insulation prevents the flow of stray currents in the installation.
• Strength and durability: Made of high-quality materials guarantees long life and resistance to environmental conditions.
• Wide range of operating temperatures: Maximum operating temperature is 95°C at a nominal pressure of 1.6 MPa.
• Easy installation: The flanged design facilitates quick and safe installation in existing installations.
• Compliance with standards: Flanges made in accordance with PN EN 1092-1 standard ensure compatibility with other elements of the piping system.

The connector is made of EPDM gasket and galvanized steel on the flange. The nominal pressure is 1.6 MPa and the maximum operating temperature is 95°C. The flanges are drilled according to PN10 and PN16 standards and the nominal diameter is DN50.

It is important to select the connector correctly for specific operating conditions of the medium and to use expansion limiters to ensure optimal protection of the installation. Technical documentation available on the manufacturer's website (www.socla.pl) contains detailed information regarding the installation and operation of ZKB connectors.
