Material Sizes
Oetiker collapsible ring clamps can be supplied with a wide range of diameter and material options. The tape sizes should be selected by considering the radial force, hose quality and mechanical loads on the MCR to ensure the required sealing and/or insulation properties under the relevant ambient conditions.
Diameter Reduction
The maximum possible diameter reduction depends on the nominal diameter of the MCR. The nominal diameter of the mcr should be kept as short as possible according to the diameter of the parts being clamped to shorten contraction times, facilitate positioning, and reduce material load on the MCR. Any changes in material structure and tape sizes must be made during assembly. Please note that the shorter the MCR diameter, the more challenging these changes will be. This is because the amount of material is associated with diameter. The degree of compression required or the surface pressure applied to the part clamped by an MCR depends on the radial force, which therefore determines the grip and sealing properties. Each surface pressure must be determined according to the application in question. If Oetiker contraction instruments developed for this purpose are used, there is no conflict arising from the internal surfaces of the MCR
about 360° surface pressure is provided on the clamped parts.
Tolerance Balancing
The tolerance balancing during the installation of Oetiker collapsible ring clamps is entirely dependent on the order of function of the mounting tool. Essentially, tolerance balancing is not possible in the diameter-priority Assembly of collapsible ring clamps because the MCR can only be tightened up to the specified diameter. This means that the tolerances of the components are fully effective on the degree of compression or the surface pressure applied to the clamped part. In this type of Assembly, every other
the thing is associated with obtaining a defined diameter. Therefore, the tolerance balancer Assembly of an MCR can only be achieved by force-priority adjustment. Or in other words, the aim here is not to apply pressure up to a certain diameter, but to obtain the experimentally determined tightening force and The Associated surface pressure. High Process Reliability and Oetiker collapsible combined with force priority approach with innovative tightening concept of ” Oetiker ELS 01”
Self-proven installation of ring clamps is provided. There are also indicators that control the tightening force.
Puzzle Design
A lock is a mechanical connection in which precise matching components are used. The design creates a plus mechanical connection. Allows the ring ends to be securely connected within the allowable load range.
Application Area
The Puzzle-locked MCR can be applied universally depending on its large diameter area, but is especially suitable for thermoplastics.
