OVERVIEW: Selected sizes, designs, and materials for the ML Expansion Loops have been tested by the CSA / AGA and certified to meet UL 536 for use on natural gas pipe lines.
These loops are used in industrial and commercial facilities located in seismic zones to minimize the possibility of gas line ruptures. Fires caused by broken gas lines are the major cause of damage after earthquakes. They are also used for general movements from thermal expansion, or from other causes. They move 4" in all directions.
For straight CSA/AGA gas connectors designed only for lateral offset, see the Model CSA connector. Also see other ML Loops with larger diameters and other fittings.
FEATURES:
- Independent pair of flexible legs allows considerable movement in any direction
- Eliminates thrust load an piping anchors with the use of the stainless steel braiding
- Compact compared to hard pipe loops
APPLICATIONS:
- Accommodating movement from any source, including seismic, on natural gas piping
TEMPERATURE: to 120°F
