Basic of Self-Supported Rotary Joint Installation on Steam-Heated Paper Dryers, PaperCon 2016

Long service life of rotary joints and adjacent flexible hoses can be achieved by following basic installation guidelines. This is particularly important with self- supported rotary pressure joints that are used for paper dryers. General installation guidelines are provided. These guidelines cover rotary joint mounting, anti-rotation rod configurations, flexible hose configurations, flexible hose selection, and piping installation work. Each of the guidelines can be ignored to some degree and acceptable service life may still be achieved. The loss in service life from not following the guidelines, however, is progressive. As more of the guidelines are ignored, the service life becomes shorter. Breaking all of the rules by a large amount will invariably result in poor service life and potentially lead to catastrophic failures.
