What is a rotary union and why is it important for fire fighting and sanitation applications?
A rotary union is a mechanical device that allows the transfer of fluid between stationary pipes and rotating equipment. In fire fighting and sanitation, this prevents hoses from twisting, ensuring continuous and efficient fluid transfer.
What materials commonly used to make rotary unions for these applications?
Rotary unions typically made of materials like brass, bronze, steel, or stainless steel. Stainless steel often preferred for increased corrosion resistance when moving water and certain chemicals.
What pressure ranges can rotary unions handle in fire fighting applications?
Rotary unions for these applications need to handle high pressure, and specifications depend on the specific requirements.
What types of fluids can be transferred through a rotary union in fire and sanitation services?
Rotary unions can transfer various media, including water, foam agents, and other fire suppression chemicals, as well as sanitation fluids.
Are there specific design features for rotary unions used in harsh environments?
Yes, rotary unions designed for harsh environments may include features like corrosion-resistant materials, sealed bearing compartments, and robust construction to withstand demanding conditions.
What maintenance is required for rotary unions?
While some rotary unions designed to be maintenance-free, periodic inspection is important. Deublin recommends using only their spare parts for repairs. Mosmatic swivels indicate the need for seal replacement through weep holes.
What are some common applications for rotary unions in fire services?
Common applications in fire services include hose reels, aerial devices, and other equipment requiring continuous rotation during water or foam delivery.
What are the benefits of using a rotary union compared to a direct connection?
Rotary unions prevent twisting and tangling of hoses, which can cause damage, reduce flow, and create safety hazards. They allow for greater flexibility and maneuverability in fire fighting and sanitation operations.
How do I select the right size and type of rotary union for my fire fighting or sanitation equipment?
Consider factors such as pressure range, speed range, the number and size of ports, seal type, operating temperature and the type of fluid being transferred.
Are there rotary unions with special features like electrical slip rings?
Yes, some rotary unions include an integral slip ring for electrical power or data transfer in addition to fluid transfer.
