BELMAN - Expansion Joints4 LAUNCH VEHICLE FEEDING LINE PIPING BELLOWS For the feeding and pressurization lines of both the main stage and the upper stage of the launch vehicle, a European space tech company, needed six Piping Bellows to absorb axial, lateral and angular movements, but not in combination. The Piping Bellows, which have different designs and installation lengths, will be installed in a cryogenic environment. Therefore they are designed for temperatures down to -196°C. To help the client with a water hammer issue, Belman designed the Expansion Joints for 25 barg, even though the operating pressure was just 7-8 barg.

PRESSURE BALANCED FOR CAR BATTERY CELL PRODUCTION Belman has designed and manufactured a total of 22 Inline Pressure Balanced Expansion Joints for Europe’s largest car battery cell production facility supplying the European electrical car industry. The Expansion Joints will be installed in the cold water supply pipe in this plant. The Inline Pressure Balanced design also eliminates pressure-related forces on the connecting piping. The mounted tie rods function as external limiters and help to control the absorption of movements. Car battery cell production Germany 2024-4322-02012
