In January 2000, Piping Technology & Products, Inc., a manufacturer of high-quality engineered products, designed and built two 33 1/2 inches travel and two 25-inch travel constant load spring hangers. These constant load spring hangers will be in service at a geothermal production well in Hawaii, where they will be used to support a pipe that carries hot water discharged from a geothermal production well to a separator.
The well will produce 2.8 million gallons of water per hour at a discharge temperature of 680° F and a pressure of 2800 psi. These custom-designed constant load spring hangers provide an extraordinarily large travel distance. The 33 1/2″ travel and the 25″ travel constant load spring hangers are designed to provide a constant 16,000 lbs. and 6,000 lbs support for a pipe moving a vertical distance of 33 1/2″ and 25″ respectively.
