Ukusebenza kwamapayipi ezindaweni ezibandayo kubeka inselelo ehlukile yobunjiniyela edinga ngaphezu kwezixazululo ezijwayelekile zemboni. Lapho amazinga okushisa ehla kakhulu ngaphansi kweqhwa, izinto ezisetshenziswayo ekuxhumaneni kwamapayipi zingashintsha kakhulu ezimfanelweni zazo zomshini, okuholela kulokho onjiniyela abakubiza ngokuthi ukwehluleka kokuphuka. Yilesi sizathu kanye esenza ukuthi ukukhethwa kwezinto zokuxhuma ezingaphuki kalula ezindaweni ezibandayo kube ukugxila okubalulekile kwabaphathi bamaphrojekthi, ochwepheshe bokuthenga, namathimba okunakekela emikhakheni yamandla, amanzi, namakhemikhali. Ukukhetha into engafanele yokuxhuma ezindaweni ezibandayo kakhulu noma ezingaphansi kweqhwa kungaholela ekuvuzeni okuyinhlekelele, ukuma komsebenzi okubizayo, nezingozi ezinzima ezisongela abasebenzi kanye nemvelo ezungezile. Kulo mhlahlandlela obanzi, sizohlola isayensi yokuphuka kwamazinga okushisa aphansi, sihlole izici ezibalulekile ezinquma ukufaneleka kwezinto, futhi sikwazise ngeVaricpand International, umkhiqizi onezixazululo zokuxhuma ezingaphuki eziklanyelwe ngqo ukumelana nezimo ezinzima zasebusika. Ekugcineni kwalesi sihloko, uzobe usunokuqonda okucacile kokuthi yini okufanele uyibheke ekusetshenzisweni kwesimo sezulu esibandayo nokuthi kungani ukukhetha izinto ngobuchwepheshe kungukuthi akukho okunye ongakwenza ukuze amapayipi athembeke.

Izingozi ezihilelekile ekusebenzeni kwamapayipi endaweni ebandayo azikwazi ukweqiwa, ngoba ukwehluleka okukodwa endaweni yokuxhuma kungavala uhlelo lonke lokuthutha futhi kudinga ukulungiswa okuphuthumayo okubizayo ngaphansi kwezimo zezulu ezinzima kakhulu. Abaqhubi abaningi bafunde ngendlela ebuhlungu ukuthi ama-coupling ajwayelekile, asebenza kahle kakhulu ezindaweni ezinemvula noma ezipholile, awakwazi ukumelana nezingcindezi zokushisa kanye nemithwalo yokushayisana evamile ezindaweni eziqandayo. Yingakho izinhlangano ezicabanga phambili ziphendukela kubakhiqizi abakhethekile abafana ne-Varicpand International, esakhe idumela lomhlaba wonke ngokukhiqiza izinhlelo zokuxhuma ezigcina ukuqina nokuvumelana nazo ngisho nasemazingeni aphansi kakhulu okushisa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, inqubo yokukhetha idlula nje ukukhetha umkhiqizo eshalofini, ngoba idinga ukuqonda okujulile kwesayensi yezinto, amazinga okushisa, kanye nokuhambisana namazinga omhlaba wonke. Kulo lonke leli athikili, sizohlukanisa ukucatshangelwa kobuchwepheshe sibe isiqondiso esisebenzayo, siqinisekise ukuthi ungathatha isinqumo esinolwazi ngephrojekthi yakho elandelayo yamapayipi endaweni ebandayo. Noma ngabe uthuthukisa ingqalasizinda ekhona noma wenza uhlelo olusha kusukela ekuqaleni, ulwazi olwethulwe lapha luzosebenza njengomhlahlandlela wakho wokuxhuma kwamapayipi okuphephile nokuqinile.

Ukuqina kwempahla yamapayipi akusikho nje ukukhathazeka ngokwethiyori kodwa kuyinto yangempela ebangele izingozi eziningi zezimboni ezindaweni ezibandayo emhlabeni wonke. Lapho izinsimbi namanye ama-polymer echayeke emazingeni okushisa aphansi, ukwakheka kwazo kwamangqamuzana kuyashintsha kunciphise amandla azo okuguquka ngokomzimba ngaphambi kokuphuka. Lokhu kusho ukuthi into ngokuvamile egoba futhi yeluleke lapho icindezelwa esikhundleni salokho iphuka ngokuzumayo, ngokuvamile ngaphandle kwezimpawu ezibonakalayo zokuxwayisa ngaphambi kokuhluleka. Ukushintsha kusuka ekuziphatheni okuguquguqukayo kuye ekuziphatheni okulukhuni akukona okusheshayo kodwa kwenzeka phezu kwebanga lokushisa elaziwa ngokuthi indawo yokuguquka kusuka ekuguquguqukeni kuye ebulukhuni, elishintsha ngokuya ngengxube ethile noma inhlanganisela ethile. Isibonelo, insimbi yekhabhoni, evame ukusetshenziswa ekwakhiweni kwamapayipi, inomlinganiselo wokushisa wokuguquka owaziwayo ongawela phakathi kwebanga lokusebenza lamapayipi amaningi ezindaweni ezibandayo. Uma into isingena kulesi simo sokuqina, ngisho nemithwalo emincane yokushayiswa, ukudlidliza, noma ukufinyela okubangelwa ukushisa kungadala ukuqhekeka okuyinhlekelele okusakazeka ngokushesha emaphethelweni ezinhlamvu zensimbi.

Izingozi ezihambisana nokuphuka okuncipha kalula (brittle failure) emapayipini ezindaweni ezibandayo ziningi futhi zidlulela ngalé kwezindleko eziqondile zezimali zokulungisa nokufaka okusha. Ukuphuka okuzumayo esixhumanisini (coupling) noma esakhiweni sokuxhuma (fitting) kungadedela uketshezi noma amagesi anengcindezi emvelweni, kudale izingozi zomlilo, izingozi zokungcolisa, ngisho nokuqhuma kwezinye izimo zokusebenza. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukungabikezeleki kokuphuka okuncipha kalula kuyenza ibe yingozi kakhulu ngoba ivamise ukwenzeka ngaphandle kokuguquka kwesimo kwangaphambili, kungashiyi thuba labasebenzi bokulungisa ukuthi babone futhi balungise inkinga ngaphambi kokuba ibe nkulu. Yilesi sizathu esenza ukuthi ukukhethwa kwezinto zokuxhuma ezingaphuki kalula (anti-brittleness coupling material) emapayipini ezindaweni ezibandayo kugcizelele hhayi nje amandla okuqala wento, kodwa nokuqina kwayo nokumelana nomthelela wokushaywa emazingeni okushisa aphansi. Onjiniyela kumele futhi bacabangele ukuthi izimo ezibandayo ziletha izinselele ezingaphezulu, njengokwakheka kweqhwa, ukuphakama komhlaba ngenxa yeqhwa (frost heave), nokushintshashintsha kokushisa (thermal cycling), konke lokhu kubeka ingcindezi eyengeziwe yemishini ekuxhumaneni kwamapayipi. Ngenxa yalezi zici eziyinkimbinkimbi, kuyacaca ukuthi ukuqonda okuphelele kokuziphatha kwento ezimweni ezibandayo kubalulekile kunoma ubani onomthwalo wemfanelo wokuqinisekisa ubuqotho bamapayipi ezifundeni ezinobusika obuningi.

Uma kuhlolwa izinto zokuxhuma ezisetshenziselwa izimo ezibandayo, indawo yokuqala futhi eyisisekelo okufanele ihlolwe ubukhuni (toughness), obukala amandla ento yokumunca amandla nokushintsha ukuma ngaphambi kokuba iphuke. Ubukhuni buvame ukukalwa ngokuhlolwa kwemithelela (impact tests), njengokuhlolwa kwe-Charpy V-notch, okunikeza inkomba ecacile yokuthi into izosebenza kanjani lapho ilayishwa kungazelelwe emazingeni okushisa aphansi. Into enobukhuni obuphezulu iyoqhubeka nokumunca amandla ngisho nalapho izinga lokushisa lehla libe ngaphansi kweqhwa, kanti into enobukhuni obuphansi izobonisa ukwehla okukhulu ekusebenzeni lapho izinga lokushisa lehla. Ukunwebeka (ductility) kubaluleke ngokulinganayo, ngoba kuchaza izinga into engakwazi ukushintsha ukuma ngaphandle kokuphuka; le mfanelo ivumela izixhumi ukuthi zihlangabezane nokungahambisani okuncane, ukwanda nokuncipha ngenxa yokushisa, ngaphandle kokulimaza ubuqotho bokuxhumana. Ukumelana nemithelela (impact resistance) kuhambisana nobukhuni nokunwebeka, kuqinisekisa ukuthi isixhumi singamelana nokushaywa okuzenzakalelayo, ukudlidliza, nokushaqeka kwemishini okuvamile ekufakweni emasimini nasekusebenzeni okuqhubekayo.

Ukuhambisana nezinto zokwakha zamapayipi uqobo lwazo kungenye indlela ebalulekile okufanele icatshangelwe, ngezinye izikhathi inganakwa ngesikhathi sokukhetha. I-coupling kufanele ihambisane hhayi nje kuphela nento yepayipi kodwa futhi nanoma yimaphi ama-gasket, ama-seal, noma ama-lubricant asetshenziswayo ekuxhumaniseni, ngoba ukugqwala kwe-galvanic noma ukusabela kwamakhemikhali kungonakalisa kakhulu ukusebenza ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Isibonelo, uma uxhumanisa amapayipi e-aluminium, ungafisa ukuwabhangqa nama-coupling e-aluminium noma avikelwe kahle, kuyilapho amapayipi ensimbi engagqwali edinga ama-coupling anokumelana nokugqwala okufanayo ukuze kugcinwe ukuqina kwesikhathi eside. Izinga lokushisa liyisimiso esingaxoxiswana ngaso, ngoba into ngayinye inezinga lokushisa eliphansi elibekiwe lapho ukusebenza kwayo kungaqinisekiswa umkhiqizi. Kubalulekile ukukhetha ama-coupling amazinga okushisa awo ahlanganisa ngokunethezeka izinga lokushisa eliphansi elilindelekile endaweni yakho yokusebenza, kufaka phakathi imiphumela yomoya obandayo nokushintshashintsha kwezinga lokushisa lomhlabathi. Ekugcineni, amazinga nezitifiketi zomkhakha, njenge-ISO, ANSI, noma i-ASTM, zinikeza isilinganiso sekhwalithi futhi ziqinisekisa ukuthi imikhiqizo oyikhethile ihloliwe futhi yaqinisekiswa ukuthi isetshenziswe ezindaweni ezinzima.

Ngaphezu kwalezi zakhiwo eziyisisekelo, kunezici ezimbalwa ezengeziwe okufanele umthengi onolwazi azicabangele lapho ekhetha ama-coupling okumelana nokuphuka ezindaweni ezibandayo. I-coefficient yokwanda kokushisa kufanele iqondaniswe ngokucophelela phakathi kwe-coupling nopayipi, ngoba umehluko omkhulu ungadala ukugcwala kwengcindezi lapho kuhlangana khona lapho amazinga okushisa eguquka kakhulu. Ukuphela kwendawo nokukhetha kokumboza nakho kudlala indima, ngoba ezinye izinto zokuvikela zingathuthukisa ukumelana nokugqwala kodwa zingaba buthakathaka ngokwazo emazingeni okushisa aphansi uma zingakhiwe kahle. Isisindo nokulula kokuphatha kuyizinto eziphathekayo okufanele zicatshangelwe ngabasebenzi basemkhakheni okufanele bafake ama-coupling begqoke izigqoko zokuvikela ezisindayo zasebusika futhi bebhekene nokuncipha kwekhono lokusebenza ngezandla. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukutholakala kwezingxenye eziyisipele nokulula kokuthola ezokushintsha ezindaweni ezikude ezibandayo kufanele kube nomthelela esinqumweni sakho, ngoba ukuma komsebenzi kulezi zindawo kungabiza kakhulu futhi kube nzima ngokwezokuthutha. Ngokuhlola ngokuhlelekile zonke lezi zici, amaqembu okuthenga angakwazi ukwenza isinqumo esiphelele esiqinisekisa ukusebenza okusheshayo nokwethembeka kwesikhathi eside kumapayipi ezindaweni ezibandayo.

IVaricpand International isungule ukuthi ingumkhiqizi ohamba phambili wezinhlelo zokuxhuma ezisezingeni eliphezulu, nomkhiqizo wayo ohlanganisa ama-camlock couplings, ama-Storz couplings, ama-guillemin couplings, kanye nezinye izinhlobo eziningi zokuxhuma ezisetshenziswa emikhakheni ehlukahlukene. Okuhlukanisa i-Varicpand ezimweni zokusebenza ezibandayo ukuzibophezela kwenkampani ekwakheni imikhiqizo yayo ngezinto ezikhethwe ngokukhethekile ukuze zibe nokuqina emazingeni aphansi okushisa nokumelana nokuphuka okuncane. I-coupling ngayinye ohlwini lwe-Varicpand ikhiqizwa nge-alloys ezikhethwe ngokucophelela nama-polymers ezobunjiniyela agcina izakhiwo zawo zomshini noma ngabe izinga lokushisa lehlela emazingeni aphezulu kakhulu. Isibonelo, ama-couplings ensimbi engagqwali ne-aluminium enkampanini akhiwa futhi elashwa ngokushisa ukuze athuthukise ukuziphatha kwawo kokuguquka kusuka ekuqineni kuye ekuphukeni, okuqinisekisa ukuthi ahlala ephephile futhi esebenza kahle ezimweni ze-arctic. Izinqubo zokukhiqiza ezisetshenziswa ezikhungweni ze-Varicpand zihlanganisa izindlela ezithuthukile zokubumba ngokunemba, ukusika ngomshini, nezinqubo zokulawula ikhwalithi eziqinisekisa ukunemba kobukhulu nokungaguquguquki kuwo wonke amaqembu.

Ukusebenza okufakazelwe kokuxhumana kwe-Varicpand ezindaweni ezibandayo nezicisayo kuwubufakazi bokuqina kwezinqubo zobunjiniyela nokuhlola zenkampani. Imikhiqizo isetshenziswe emasimini kawoyela asenyakatho, ezindaweni zokuhlanza amanzi ezisezindaweni eziphakeme, nasezindaweni zasolwandle lapho amazinga okushisa avamile ehlala ngaphansi kuka-minus amashumi amane degrees Celsius isikhathi eside. Kulezi zimo ezidingayo, ukuxhumana kwe-Varicpand kubonise ukumelana okukhethekile nomthelela, ukukhathala, nokushintshashintsha kokushisa, kugcina ukuxhumana okungavuzi okungathenjwa ngabasebenzi. Ikhathalogi yemikhiqizo yenkampani ihlanganisa ukukhethwa okuphelele kwezinhlobo zokuxhumana, kusukela kokuguquguqukayoAmakhapholi e-Camlock kokunamandla Amakhapholi e-Storz, wonke atholakala ngezigaba zezinto ezilungiselelwe isimo esibandayo. I-Varicpand nayo iyaqaphela ukuthi imikhiqizo esezingeni lokuthengwa emashalofini ingase ingahlangabezani njalo nezidingo ezithile zephrojekthi ethile, yingakho inkampani inikeza izinketho eziningi zokwenza ngendlela oyifunayo ukuze ilungise ama-couplings ngobukhulu obunembile, izinto, kanye nemininingwane yokusebenza. Uma ubambisana ne-Varicpand, uthola ukufinyelela eqenjini lonjiniyela abanokuhlangenwe nakho abaqonda ubunkimbinkimbi bokuklanywa kwamapayipi endaweni ebandayo futhi abangakunikeza isiqondiso esibalulekile phakathi nenqubo yokukhetha nokufaka.

Ukulungisa nokugcina kahle ama-couplings ngaphambi kokufakwa kuwumugqa wokuqala wokuvikela umonakalo obangelwa ukubanda, futhi isinyathelo esivame ukunganakwa emkhakheni. Ama-couplings nezingxenye zawo ezihambisana nazo kufanele zigcinwe endaweni eyomile, evikelwe, egcina izinga lokushisa elizinzile, kugwenywe ukuthintana ngqo nomhlaba oqandisiwe noma ukuchayeka emvuleni engaholela ekwakhekeni kweqhwa ezingxenyeni zokuvala. Ngaphambi kokufakwa, zonke izingxenye kufanele zivunyelwe ukuthi zijwayele kancane kancane nezimo zezulu ezizungezile, ngoba ukushintsha kwezinga lokushisa ngokuzumayo kungadala ukujiya komhwamuko nokubanda okulandelayo okulimaza izivalo futhi kukhuthaze ukugqwala. Kuyelulekwa futhi ukuthi kuhlolwe yonke ingxenye ukuze kubonakale noma yiziphi izimpawu zomonakalo owake waba khona, njengemifantu, ukuguquka kwesimo, noma ukuwohloka kwezivalo ze-elastomer, okungenzeka kwenzeka ngesikhathi sokuthutha noma ekugcinweni kwangaphambilini.

Izinqubo ezibalulekile zihlanganisa ukugcina okufanele ukuvimbela ukwakheka kweqhwa, ukujwayeza izingxenye kancane kancane ngaphambi kokufakwa, ukuqondanisa ngokucophelela ukuze kugwenywe ukucindezeleka okungadingekile, kanye nokusebenzisa amanani we-torque alinganisiwe afanele amazinga okushisa aphansi. Gwema ukusebenzisa izando noma amandla amaningi ngesikhathi sokufaka, ngoba imithwalo yomthelela ingadala ukuphuka okubuthakathaka. Ukuhlola njalo kanye nokuqinisekisa i-torque ngezikhathi ezithile nakho kubalulekile ukuze kugcinwe ubuqotho bokuhlangana ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Ukujikeleza kokushisa, okuwukwanda nokuncipha okuphindaphindiwe kwezinto ngenxa yokushintsha kwezinga lokushisa, kudala ingcindezi ejikelezayo emajoyintini nasekuxhumaneni. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, lokhu kungaholela ekukhathaleni, ukuxega kokuxhumana, nokwanda kokuthambekela ekuqhekekeni. Ukukhetha ama-couplings ane-coefficient yokwanda kokushisa efana neyento yepayipi, kanye nokufakwa kahle kwe-insulation nokulandelela ukushisa, kunganciphisa le miphumela futhi kwandise isikhathi sokusebenza.

Nakuba izindleko zokuqala zokuxhuma okukhethekile okumelana nokuphuka zingaba phezulu kunezinto ezijwayelekile, ukutshalwa kwezimali ngokuvamile kuholela ekongeni okukhulu esikhathini eside. Ukuncipha kwezinga lokwehluleka, ukulungiswa okuphuthumayo okumbalwa, ukuncipha kokuvakasha kokunakekela, kanye nokuphila isikhathi eside konke kufaka isandla ekwehleni kwezindleko zokunikela ngempahla. Ezindaweni ezikude ezibandayo lapho izindleko zokuvakasha zokunakekela ziphezulu, ukuthembeka kokuxhuma kwe-Varicpand kunikeza isizathu esiqinile somnotho.

Ungavakashela iwebhusayithi ye-Varicpand ukuze ubone uhlu olugcwele lwemikhiqizo, ufunde ngomlando wenkampani namakhono ayo, futhi ubheke imibhalo yezobuchwepheshe. Ikhasi lokuxhumana likuvumela ukuthi uxhumane ngqo nethimba le-Varicpand ukuze uthole usizo olukhethekile mayelana nokukhetha izinto, ukwenza ngendlela oyifisayo, nokuhlela iphrojekthi. Ochwepheshe be-Varicpand bayatholakala ukukusiza ukuthi uthole isixazululo esifanele sokuxhuma okumelana nokuphuka (anti-brittleness coupling) sepayipi lakho lasendaweni ebandayo.
