AODD Pump P&ID Query

AODD Pump P&ID Query

AODD Pump P&ID Query

(OP)
Hi, I have another query. Need your opinion.

Suction side: If I need to install Inlet stabilizer, Should that be: pump suction flange -> Inlet stabilizer -> Expansion joint OR Pump suction flange -> Expansion joint -> Inlet stabilizer?

Disc side: If I need to install pulsation dampener, should that be: Pump disc flange -> pulsation dampener -> Expansion joint OR Pump discharge flange -> Expansion joint -> Pulsation dampener?

Thank you in advance.

RE: AODD Pump P&ID Query

The sequence should be inlet stabilizer --> pump suction flange and discharge flange --> pulsation dampener. I doubt that expansion joints are necessary but that is impossible to answer without knowing the details.

The expansion joints are required since the hard pipes might stress the inlet & discharge manifolds. For this project, the expansion joint is mandatory required. In this case, how would you recommend on placement? Thanks

Thank you

RE: AODD Pump P&ID Query

The hard pipes will only stress the the inlet and discharge manifolds if the hard pipes are not properly restrained (anchored).
