First, what are the common types of crane pipes
Crane pipe is an essential equipment for liquid loading, because it can constantly change the position, but also can play a role in liquid transport, so crane pipe is now more and more popular. But different liquids need to be loaded and unloaded with different cranes, so what are the types of cranes?
1, according to the pipe material, can be divided into carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy, polymer material crane pipe and so on.
2. According to the liquid medium of transportation, it can be divided into gasoline and diesel oil, crude oil, liquid chlorine, liquid ammonia, liquefied gas, methanol, ethanol, propylene crane pipe, etc.
3, according to the use of the scene, can be divided into land fluid, semi-fluid loading and unloading, including car loading and unloading, train loading and unloading pipe, but also sea, air pipe.
4, according to the loading and unloading form, it can be divided into top loading crane pipe, bottom loading crane pipe, open loading crane pipe, closed loading crane pipe, etc.
5, according to special industries, can be divided into low-temperature liquid handling and hot liquid handling crane pipe.
Second, how to choose crane tube type
There are several key factors to consider when choosing the right crane tube type:
1. Work pressure
According to the working pressure requirements of the hydraulic system, select the corresponding crane tube type. Working pressure is generally expressed in units of MPa or bar.
2. Pipe size
According to the flow requirements of the hydraulic system and the diameter of the pipe connection, choose the appropriate crane pipe size. Crane tube size is usually expressed in inches (inch) or millimeters (mm).
3. Material selection
According to the working environment and medium characteristics of the hydraulic system, the appropriate crane pipe material is selected. Common crane pipe materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel and so on.
4. Connection method
According to the connection mode of the hydraulic system, select the corresponding crane pipe connection mode, such as welding, threaded connection, etc.
5. Safety performance
Choose cranes with reliable safety features, such as overload protection and limiter safety devices.
6. Standards and certification
Crane pipe should comply with international or industry standards, such as ISO, DIN, GB, etc., and have the corresponding certification and quality assurance.
7, manufacturer reputation and service
Choose crane pipe manufacturers with good reputation and professional services to ensure product quality and after-sales service.
In the selection process, you can communicate in detail with the crane pipe manufacturers to provide the relevant parameters and requirements of the hydraulic system to obtain professional advice and solutions. At the same time, you can also refer to the relevant technical manuals, standards and other information, comprehensive evaluation and comparison, and finally choose the appropriate crane tube model.
