Compact or “Disc” Spring Support Live Webinar
Date: Thursday, October 21, 2021 – Register for 10:00 am or 2:00 pm
*Note: Time Zone is CDT * Central Daylight Savings Time / GMT -5h
Live Webinars are worth 1 PDH Credit for TX Professional Engineers
The Compact Spring Support Webinar will cover key objectives, background, and leading industry problems related to process equipment nozzles (both rotating and non-rotating equipment). First, we will review the challenges involved in the design and analysis of piping with respect to process equipment nozzles. Secondly, we will discuss the types of chronic problems and failures related to process equipment nozzles and present (or introduce) the Compact Spring Support as a solution. During our discussion, we will explain why chronic problems with process equipment exist, describing current design practices as they relate to industry code standards and how the Compact Spring Support addresses these problems directly and effectively. And finally, we will take a quick look at the technical data and sizing program.

What does the hot or cold setting mean on a constant spring support?
November 2, 2010
The “cold” setting on a constant spring support refers to the location of the pipe at the installed position. The “hot” setting refers to the design location of the pipe at the operating position. In general, prior to installation, all spring supports are set at the “cold” setting.
