GS–FLANGE SYSTEM GS 90° Flare Flange System

Introduction These are GS-Hydro’s guidelines for the manufacture and assembly of the GS-Hydro 90° flare flange system. In the case of special applications (special sealing arrangements, non-conductive connections, special materials etc) please contact GS-Hydro for further instructions. In order to achieve the integrity required in any piping system it is imperative that operators are fully trained and conversant with the tools and machines to be used. GS Hydro can provide training and instruction as well as installation supervision if required.

Refer to the relevant health and safety instructions for protective measures. Protect yourself always by using required personal protective equipments.

The GS 90° flare system is used for class III piping systems with operating pressures of up to 40 bar. Extensive test programs – including rigorous vibration testing – have proven the suitability of the GS 90° flare flange system for a wide range of different materials and applications. GS Hydro solutions are approved by many Classification companies for a wide range of materials and applications.

Selection of the pipe GS-Hydro recommends the use of cold drawn pipes & tubes due to the inherent quality, (precision dimensions and shape) and cleanliness (no scale) characteristics. As a comparison, hot rolled tubes will always have scale both inside and outside due to the manufacturing process and may not be exactly round. GS-Hydro’s cold forming process ensures there will not be any scale inside the cold drawn tube after the manufacturing. Original GS-Hydro high-pressure piping can be recognised from the marking GS-PIPING along the tube length.

GS-Hydro maintains a large stock of carbon and stainless steel pipes & tubes to be utilised in hydraulic and other piping systems: Carbon Steel Material Specification Manufacturing Tolerances Technical Terms of Delivery Material Specification Manufacturing Tolerances

All precision steel pipes are supplied with trace numbers.

Always keep the tubes stored indoors away from rain and moisture. Make sure all the tubes are fitted with plastic plugs in the ends.

GS–FLANGE SYSTEM GS 90° Flare Flange System

Cutting off the pipe Cut tubes squarely by using cold saw. Do not use roller cutter or grinder. After cutting the tube, make sure to put a plastic plug in the tube you do not use.

After cutting, the pipe is de-burred inside and outside; then wiped clean by a clean cloth in order to remove any metal particles. Especially with small size pipes (below 60 mm) it is recommended also to shoot foam projectiles by means of compressed air through pipes – use Jet Clean, Compri Tube Clean or respective method.

GS 90° Flare Flange System

Cleaning operations before flaring Place the GS 90° flare flange on the pipe end with the chamfer facing outwards. Inspect the flange type before placing it on to the tube. The original GS-flange has a GS-PIPING text, marking of flange type and a charge number for traceability.

Clean the flaring cone and dies before fitting to the flaring machine. Ensure the correct size cone and dies are selected for the tube size.

Tools must be kept clean and lubricated. Tools must be checked regularly. Worn-out tools must be replaced. Damaged, worn, or dirty tools will affect the sealing efficiency.

Clamping the pipe Place the pipe between the dies and push it against the stopper. Check that the pipe is positioned horizontally and aligned with the flaring machine. Use pipe supports with long and heavy pipes.

GS–FLANGE SYSTEM GS 90° Flare Flange System

Flaring operations Use only GS-Hydro flaring machine and genuine flaring cones and clamping dies. It is recommended to carry out a test flare to find the exact setting of the stopper, the right pressure of the clamping jaws and the flaring pressure as well as the right time setting for the work cycle. Before beginning the flaring operation check that the surface of the flaring cone has been thoroughly oiled or treated with Gleitmo 830 (Fuchs Lubritech) lubricating paste for cold forming. After the flaring machine has been set up, the pipe to be flared is pushed into its jaws against the stopper and the jaws are locked (1). Then the pipe is flared (2). GS-90° flaring is done in two steps – at first with 37° cone...

... and then with 90° cone.

Ensure that the flange is placed on the pipe before beginning flaring operation. When the flare has formed completely, it should be rolled another 3 to 5 more turns, before the cone is retracted.

Checking of the flaring The flared pipe is cleaned with a cloth before visually checking quality.

Verify the outside dimension of the flaring (Appendix 1–4, pages 11–14 ) and check that flare is concentric with the pipe.

Check the wall thickness of the flared part. The thickness should be approx. 80% of the nominal thickness of the pipe. Ensure that the flare is at 90° angle to the pipe.

GS–FLANGE SYSTEM GS 90° Flare Flange System

Assembling of parts Inspect components prior to assembly: • Use non-abrasive soft cloth to ensure all components are free from grease, dirt or any contaminants • use non-abrasive soft cloth to clean all components from grease and dirt • verify that all components are of correct material and size

Insert the bolts and gasket which will centralize on bolts.

Connecting the joint Verify that you are using right type and size of bolts (Appendix 5, page 15). Torque bolts in diagonal sequence in small increments to appropriate torque level. See illustrated example. Tighten bolts in sequence in small increments to appropriate torque level. See illustrated example. Bolt torques for 90° flare flanges are shown in Appendix 5, page 15. Bolt torque values are based on friction factor µ=0,15 (slightly greased bolts). Effective greasing can reduce the friction factor 30–50 %. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Tighten lightly with a wrench. Tighten crosswise with 30% of the recommended torque. Tighten crosswise with 70% of the recommended torque. Tighten crosswise with 100% of the recommended torque.

Do not tighten further after step 4.

It is recommended to use calibrated bolt torque wrench in all cases.

Remember! The given tightening torques are working values when the system is in operation. This means that the torques must be checked either after the pressure test and/or a week after the start-up.
