Bends
Glass pipe bends for directional changes in piping systems.
Pipeline Bends Overview
Goel’s glass pipeline bends are designed to direct fluid flow through angular paths while preserving transparency and chemical inertness. They manufacture various types including Y-bends, U-bends, and specialized “900 with thermometer branch” bends, with catalog reference codes such as PBT, PY, PU, etc. These components integrate seamlessly into the general pipeline components line, maintaining vacuum compatibility and corrosion resistance.
Specifications
Typical parameters from Goel’s catalog include:
– **Catalog Codes & Types**:
• **PY** series Y-bends (e.g. PY0.5, PY1, PY3, etc.) with dimensions DN, L, L1 defined
• **U-bends** (e.g. PU0.5, PU1.5, etc.) with bottom outlets in some designs
• **900° Bends with Thermometer Branch** (PBT series), with a branch DN, base DN1, L and L1, and types A/B classification
• **U bends with bottom outlet** (PUO series), with DN, DN1, L, L1 values
– **Dimensions & Lengths**: Examples include for PBT1.5: DN 40, DN1 25, L 150, L1 225; or U-bends e.g. PUO1*: DN 25, L 20, L1 150
– **Availability**: Some items are marked as fast-available in the catalog listing
– **Material / Construction**: Borosilicate glass wetted surfaces, compatible with pipeline system standards, supporting vacuum conditions
Applications
Glass pipeline bends are used for:
– Changing direction of fluid flow (e.g. 90°, 180°) within glass piping systems
– Creating compact routing paths in constrained systems
– Incorporating measurement branches (e.g. thermometer branch in 900° bend)
– Special flow designs in laboratory and pilot systems where glass visibility is key
