AND PRESSURE=45 BARS
AND DESIGN TEMPERATURE=60 C
I THINK, BECAUSE OF HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM I SHOULD CHOOSE METAL EJ, AM I RIGHT?(BUT THE FLUID IS CORROSIVE FOR METALS)

Why?
Because, where they are used an Expansion Joint is the weakest link in a piping system.

AND WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR EXPANSION LOOP OR CHANGING DESIGN.

I have a question:
Does the selecting of which EJ is proper (metal or rubber expansion joint) depend on stiffness rate and movement requirements?(Or only it depends on pressure, media and temperature?)

Thank you for your useful helps.
RE: expansion joints
You need to do some Googling and find some Expansion Joint Manufacturers sites and do some reading. Many of those have farily good tutorials on their web pages that will answer a lot of your questions and give you the information you need.
Google for these words: Hosemaster, SFP or Senior Flexonics Pathway, American Boa, EJ Systems, for starters.
