Spring elementsTo compensate for slight vertical displace-ments in the piping, spring components areused as supports. The functioning of thesecomponents is based on preset helical coilsprings which exert a variable supportingload over the whole range of movementcorresponding to the given spring character-istics. Load variations resulting from this arelimited through corresponding specificationsbased on stress calculations for the piping -this depends on the sensitivity of thesystem.
The fundamental principles relevant for thefunction of the spring components are foundin the MSS SP 58 and VGB R 510 L guide-lines. See Technical Specifications, page 0.5.
LISEGA spring hangersVarious versions of spring elements, ideallysuited to whatever structural requirementsexist, are available. The optimum choicedepends on the installation situation.
Spring hangers, type 21This type, the one most frequently used, isfitted with an upper connection for suspen-
sion. It is installed whereverthe surrounding locationoffers a suitable connectionpoint and sufficientspace. The upperconnections can beuniversally adaptedwith standard com-ponents to any given
situation.

2.1
Spring hangers, type 25This type is frequently used for
its simple installation, just sea-ting it on the existing steel. Theconnection is made by a rodpassing through the unit.
Spring supports, type 29If the installation location doesnot permit sus-
pension, then this model is asuitable alternative as aprop support. Where thereis considerable horizontaldisplacement of the supportload, and steel slides onsteel, lateral forces canunder certain conditionshave an adverse effect onthe operation of the sup-port system. To take precautionsagainst this, the use of PTFE bearings isrecommended. In this case the counter bea-ring should have a stainless steel surface.

To prevent constraints inthe system, thermalexpansion in the pipingand other piping compo-nents must not be hinde-red. The piping must there-fore be supported in a cor-respondingly elastic man-ner.
2.2
Angulating spring supports, type 20Unlike the spring support type 29,horizontal displacement can betaken up almost free of lateralforces by this design. This way that constraining fric-tional forces are completelyexcluded at all levels of move-ment, vertical and horizontal.
Sway braces, type 27These particular components act both intension and compression and are used tostabilize the piping and other plant com-ponents. An additional damping effect isobtained at the same time. The connectionparts correspond with those of ProductGroup 3.
With LISEGA sway braces, type 27, the following adjustmentscan be made:
load presetting free stroke installation dimension
See also Installation and OperatingInstructions, page 2.17
Load setting and blockingSpring hangers and supports are preset at theworks to the installation load and blocked inboth directions of movement. Blocking isnecessary to take up additional loads duringpickling, flushing, or hydrostatic tests. The factory settings are carried out on elec-tronically controlled test benches:
with spring hangers, values set at the factory are stamped onto a riveted nameplate.
the installation position is marked on the travel scale.
cold and hot settings are marked on the travel scale with a white and red sticker respectively.
the blocking device can be blocked in any position. The blocking pieces can be reinserted in any required position.
Spring hangers and supports should be setin such a way that the spring load and thepiping weight correspond with the cold loadposition.The corresponding hot load position resultsfrom the theoretically determined pipe move-ment (travel) and the spring rate.The load difference between the cold andhot positions acts on the piping as a reac-tion force and is limited by the relevantdesign specifications.
Generally, the max. permissible load devia-tion amounts to 25% of the operating load.
Above and beyond that, constant hangersexerting a constant supporting load over thewhole travel range are to be used.
Selection of spring hangersA decisive factor for the reaction force is thestiffness of the spring rate value of the res-pective coil springs. To cover the widest pos-sible field of application using spring han-gers, the load ranges are divided into 5 tra-vel ranges.
Please see Technical Specifications page 0.13for details of usage. See also the selectiontable, pages 2.3 and 2.4, as well asInstallation and Operating Instructions, page2.15.

SELECTION CRITERIA FOR SPRING HANGERS AND SUPPORTS
Permissible force variationThe permissible force variation betweencold load (installation load) position tohot load (operating load) position islimited internationally by common speci-fications for pipe stress analysis to max.25% of the operating load.
Maximum working travelAdditionally, to preclude functionalimpairment due to instability from extralong springs, a working travel of maximum 2 inch[50mm] should not be exceeded.
Spring ratesTo cover as wide a field of applicationsas possible while adhering to thesestandards, LISEGA spring elements aredivided into 5 travel ranges with cor-respondingly different spring rates.
Extra long springsTravel ranges 4 & 5 relate to extra longsprings and should only be used aftertechnical evaluation of the whole situ-ation, especially in sensitive pipingsystems.
Design typesThe selection of the suitable designtype depends upon the respective sup-port configuration or installation situ-ation.
Economical unit sizeTo find the most economical size, thefollowing procedures apply:

1. Transport and storageWhen transporting, threaded connectionsand travel stops must not be damaged.When stored in the open they should beprotected from dirt and moisture.
2. Delivery conditionUnless agreed otherwise, spring hangers andspring supports are delivered to the siteblocked in the installation position.When hangers or supports are blocked (travelstop in both directions), the spring plate islocked by a special blocking device in thehousing slots.
All spring hangers and supports are suppliedwith a riveted aluminum name plate fittedwith an integral travel scale.The following information is stamped on thename plate:
order number if required set load theoretical travel spring rate of the hanger or support marking and position number test stamp if required
The serial number is stamped directly on the housing.

Blocking device for singlespring models
Name plate for spring hanger
Spring hangers and sup-ports are used to compen-sate for the thermal move-ment to be expected inpiping systems. Fortrouble-free functioning,correct installation isessential, observing thefollowing instructions:
If specially ordered, the stops can be bolted securely tothe hanger or support after deblocking.
Securing clamp Fixing bolt
The blocking units for single spring models consist ofa set of hinged metal plates. Individual plates can beswivelled into any desired blocking position.
upper connection travel scale blocking unit with securing band name plate lower connection (turnbuckle
with right-hand thread) counter nut
On the travel scale, the theoretical operatingposition is marked with a red, and the theo-retical cold position with a white sticker.Also, the position of the spring plate is markedwith an X on the travel scale. The read out is made at the bottom edge ofthe spring plate.
2.1 Spring hangers, type 21Spring hangers, type 21, have upper andlower connections fitted with right-handthreads. At the top they consist of an internalthread engagement of limited depth, and atthe bottom a turnbuckle. The threads are filledwith grease and sealed with plastic caps.
2.2 Spring hangers, type 22The upper connection of these hangers issupplied as a lug for a connecting pin. Thelower connection consists of a turnbucklewith righthand thread.
2.3 Spring hangers, type 25 & 26Spring hangers, type 25 & 26 are providedwith a fixed support tube to accommodatethe connecting rod.
2.4 Spring supports, type 28 & 29The spring supports are provided with eitherone or four adjustable support tubes fittedwith a loosely mounted, but guided loadplate. The support tubes are screwed in andthe threads greased.
2.5 Angulating spring supports, type 20The angulating spring supports are providedat the top with an adjustable support tubeand a rotatable ball bushing joint, at thebottom with a fixed ball bushing joint. Thejoints provide a suitable connection to thecorresponding weld-on brackets type 35. Thesupport tube is screwed in and the threadsgreased.

2.6 Sway braces, type 27Sway braces are provided at the top with alength-adjustable ball bushing joint and atthe bottom with a fixed lug suitable for con-nection to weld-on bracket type 35 or dyna-mic clamp type 36 or 37. Presetting of theload and if necessary the free stroke arecarried out at the works in accordance withcustomer requirements.
3. InstallationWhen installing, the rules given in InstallationInstructions for Piping must also be observed.Special care must also be given to theinstalled position of the connecting rodsover the whole support chain. Two possibili-ties are the norm:
1. The connecting rods are to be installed atan angle corresponding to the horizontal dis-placement to be expected. A vertical positionof the rods is expected under normal opera-ting conditions.
2. The connecting rods are to be installedvertically for easier checking. A controlledangled position under normal operating con-ditions is thereby permitted.
In each case there should be unified rulesand regulations for the whole plant.
Connecting rods and points must be actuatedby load at connection points.
3.1 Spring hangers, type 21Connection is made by screwing the connec-ting rod into the upper threaded connectionhole in type 21, and by screwing the lowerconnecting rod into the turnbuckle. As a tension range and length adjustment,the turnbuckle length available in the hangercan be used for the connecting rod.
3.2 Spring hanger, type 22Connection is made by pinning the lug to theupper attachment point and by screwing thelower connecting rod into the turnbuckle. As a tension range and length adjustment,the turnbuckle length available in the hangercan be used for the connecting rod.
2.17
3.3 Spring hangers, type 25 & 26These spring hangers are set on beams andcorrespondingly positioned. Once the preciseposition is defined the unit should be securedagainst horizontal movement. The load actu-ated connection is made via the connectingrod, which is led throught the support tubeand tightened with a nut.
3.4 Spring supports, type 28 & 29After positioning, these spring supports areconnected to the structure by bolting or wel-ding the base plate to the structure. Loaddistribution is applied through the loadplate or through one or more adjustableload tubes.
3.5 Angulating spring supports, type 20The angulating spring supports are connec-ted to the structure after correspondingpositioning by welding the lower weld-onbracket. Load distribution is applied throughthe upper weld-on bracket via the pinconnection to the height-adjustable loadtube.
3.6 Sway braces, type 27After positioning of the connection points,the weld-on brackets are attached andconnection is made through the connectionpins of the brackets or dynamic clamps. The ball bushing joints allow a 11/2 inch[37.5 mm] adjustment of installation length.
4. Removing the travel stopsThe spring hangers and supports should onlybe deblocked when the set load is fullyapplied to all the supports, which form onesystem. If this is the case, the travel stopscan easily be removed. If the travel stops arejammed, the load actually applied does notcorrespond with the theoretical adjustedload. (See Installation and OperatingInstructions, Constant Hangers, page 1.23,item 4, in this regard).

5. Load readjustment
5.1 Spring hangers, spring supportsFor spring hangers the load can be readjustedby loosening or tightening the threaded rodsat the lock nut. For spring supports, the loadcan be readjusted by a corresponding adjust-ment of the load tube.Under all circumstances, however, the approp-riate technical department must be consultedbefore attempting any load readjustment.
5.2 Sway braces, type 27Load readjustment is made by rotating thethreaded tube (A). The large counter ring (B)is loosened to do this. In order to maintainthe E dimension, the resulting gap is com-pensated for by readjustment of the guidetube.
For sway braces, a free stroke can be set.To do this, the guide tube (C) opposite theinner guide rod (D) is to be unscrewed (loosen middle lock nut). The working travelreduces in the compression direction inaccordance with the free stroke selected.
6. CommissioningBefore commissioning it must be checkedthat each hanger or support allows the pre-calculated movement of the piping.The working travel of the hanger or supportcan be read off at the bottom edge of thespring plate as travel in the blocking slots,and read directly off the travel scale.
7. Checking and maintenanceThe correct functioning of the spring hangersor supports can be checked in all operatingsituations by noting the position of thespring plates. Under normal operating conditions no main-tenance is required.
