Introduction
IPP Deltaflex Flange Engineering
mproved Piping Products, Inc. (IPP) has patented the second generation convoluted pipe back-up rings and markets that technology under the registered trade name IPP Deltaflex pipe flanges/backup rings. The unique design technology significantly reduces the weight of a flange without reducing its pressure performance.
material and energy resources from manufacture to point of installation. The lower weight translates into several benefits:

Lower cost of raw material and energy Reduced shipping costs Ease of handling and installation
IPP has employed and continues to employ qualified, full time stress analysts. The finite element analysis (FEA) tool utilized by IPP is ANSYS 5.3. Using these tools the company has examined the stress levels inside standard piping flange joints and in the adjacent pipe walls. From this analysis IPP has confirmed that nationally recognized pipe flanges are very conservatively stressed while the adjacent pipe walls often exceed allowable code stress values, in many cases approaching the yield point of the piping material. See figure 1 below and the Technical Information section on pages 28 31 IPP Deltaflex Flange Performance on Steel Stub-ends. In response to this IPP Deltaflex flanges are designed to allowable code stress levels with a safety factor of two. Even with this generous safety factor IPP Deltaflex flanges are much lower stressed than the abutting pipe wall material. Therefore a properly selected IPP Deltaflex flange is not the weakest link in a pipe system when the adjacent pipe wall is closely examined. See figure 2. IPP Deltaflex flanges are safe, functional structures with an attractive economic dimension. They conserve
The IPP Deltaflex flanges can be substituted for a conventional pipe flange as called out in ANSI B16.5, B16.47 and AWWA C207. Its unique cross section can save up to 40% of the weight of one of these national pipe standard flanges. Some installation practices have thinned the standard flanges for economic reasons. In these instances using IPP Deltaflex flanges design principles can reduce the critically high stress levels to a stated safety factor. This performance is achieved by using IPP Deltaflex flange engineering to increase the section modulus of the flange without increasing its weight. IPP has installed literally millions of its patented convoluted flanges in the entire spectrum of code controlled commercial and industrial pipe systems. To our knowledge there has never been a reported failure of an IPP Deltaflex flange in operation in sizes to 63" and ANSI pressure categories through Class 400 (34" size). The design technology has consistently been the specification choice of world renowned piping engineers. The IPP Deltaflex flange truly satisfies the claim of being a modern high performance pipe flange. Pound for pound there exists no other pipe flange that can safely carry structural loads as efficiently as an IPP Deltaflex flange. We welcome your inquiry and presentation request.

Operating pressure ratings in PSI and unit weights in lbs; flanges mate with ANSI B16.5, B16.1, B16.47, MSSP44. 1. The pressure ratings in this table are for free floating rings on an HDPE stub-end. 2. AWWA 1-D and 3-E are actually 2-D and 4-E respectively in AWWA C207-94 86 version. 3. LJ-DI flanges have the dimensions specified in ANSI B16.5 but are made of ductile iron ASTM A395.
*AWWA C207- 2D flanges will not perform to the 150 psi called out in C207 when used on HDPE stub-ends. This specification should read for steel pipe only. Do not use AWWA C207-2D to specify flanges for HDPE stub-ends. See page 24 for details. Compare to IPP Deltaflex flange operating pressures on each specification sheet. IPP has thoroughly scrutinized all flange designs with the use of special computer software to determine the Von Mises stress levels present in all of its flange structures as well as those of national standards. The comparative weights of IPP Deltaflex flanges vs some conventional flanges indicates that for any given nominal pipe size, the IPP Deltaflex back-up flange is lighter in weight than a conventional lap joint flange. This is due to the innovative geometry employed by the IPP Deltaflex flange it is designed so that the flange material mass is allocated to the exact critical load bearing locations in the flange structure.

Alignment
I. The sealing faces of the two stub-ends in a joint should contact each other or in the case of rubber gasketed joint be parallel to each other all around the circumference and in full contact (see lines AA, BB, CC in Fig. 1 and 2). II. The IPP Deltaflex flange face DD (see Fig. 3). should be in full contact all around the circumference with the upper face of the stub-end to avoid fulcrum effect which will lead to leaking and even breaking of the flange itself while torquing the bolts.
Bolt Tightening
1. Install all the bolts and nuts finger tight, ensuring at all times that the alignment conforms to figures 1, 2, and 3. 2. As the first torquing step, tighten the bolts in a crisscross sequence as shown in Fig. 4. Using a torque wrench with 20% of the final torque listed in the table on the other side of this sheet, taking care that points (I) and (II) are satisfied at all times. 3. In the four remaining steps, repeat step two four times, each time increasing the torque by 20% of the final value. 4. After reaching the final torque, use rotational tightening until all bolts are stable at the final torque value (in general two complete times around is required).
Caution! Do not use this procedure to align and/or pull the joint together.
Always use the crisscross pattern!

IPP Deltaflex Flange Performance on High Density Polyethylene Stub-ends
mproved Piping Products (IPP) markets a patentedpipe flange under the trade name IPP Deltaflex. The IPP Deltaflex flange engineered principles have been incorporated into a unique line of modern high performance flange products. IPP Deltaflex flanges and back-up rings reduce the cost and weight of a flange without reducing it's pressure performance rating. Three critical factors have influenced the growth and acceptance of the IPP Deltaflex designed flanges or back-up rings in the piping industry.
F IGURE 1
National standards for flanges such as ANSI B16.5 and AWWA C207 were developed many years ago. This was long before the sophisticated computer analytical tools available today, which can be utilized to design flanges. As a result, IPP has shown that the standard flanges called out were either over designed in the case of ANSI or not applicable for modern piping materials such as thermoplastics as is the case for AWWA. Historically engineers have been under the impression that the only method to reduce the cost of standard flanges was to make them thinner. As a result flange sealing performance has suffered. Standard back-up flanges utilized on high density polyethylene (HDPE) piping stub-end applications were assumed to safely perform at the stated AWWA pressure ratings. IPP research has shown that the AWWA piping industry standards are not applicable to HDPE pipe.
F IGURE 2
able to uplift at the pipe wall. They cantilever and rotate at the edge of the flange adapter, creating a rotational force in an axial direction around the edge of the adapter. This creates stress levels at approximately twice the magnitude of a welded 2-D flange, which exceeds the yield point of the flange material. Unknowingly, many design engineers have specified the flanges in AWWA C-207 on HDPE piping applications thinking the stated pressure ratings were applicable. IPP has used Finite Element Analysis to evaluate each and every flange shown on AWWA C-207 Table 2 Class D and Table 4 Class E up to 63 (see page 10), and has concluded that, C-207 is misused in specifying flanges for HDPE piping applications at the stated pressure ratings, if a traditional safety factor of two is desired, as it is for steel pipe applications. IPP recommends that the pressure ratings in AWWA C-207 not be used for HDPE. IPP employs sophisticated engineering computer software in order to design its products. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to determine primary levels of
THERE EXIST NO RELIABLE FLANGE STANDARDS FOR THE THERMOPLASTIC PIPING INDUSTRY. The American Water Works flange standard ratings for class 150 flanges, AWWA C-207 Table 2 Class D (formerly known as the 1-D, are based upon how flanges behave when welded onto steel pipe. When bolted together, the opposing forces neutralize each other via the full faced gasket and there is a marked absence of deflection. This creates a stable joint and assures a safety factor of 2. On HDPE applications, the free-floating rings are
hoop, axial, radial, shear and von Mises stresses. This design tool is recognized for accurate stress analysis and allows for results that are verifiable and reproducible. FEA represents the ultimate in structural analysis for the most sophisticated systems to insure long life and safe operation. Typically, an engineer strives to design a system that fits the clients needs and is functional, safe and cost effective. As you can see, C-207 flanges will not accomodate all of these criteria. The misapplication of C-207 and the pressure of market forces has caused thinner and thinner flanges to be selected, leading to systems that are held together by strain hardened materials operating at stress levels between yield and tensile break points. The reduced section modulus of these flanges increases the potential for accelerated stress corrosion and ultimate joint failure. There is a way to reduce the weight and cost of flanges while maintaining safety. Improved Piping Products has patented a unique design trade named DELTAFLEX. It is the modern high performance backing ring for HDPE piping systems because the total mass of the flange, compared to a 2-D flange, is reduced by 30 percent or more and redistributed in a patented configuration that outperforms the 2-D flange. Note the unique cross sectional design and the manner in which it seats to the HDPE flange adapter and mates with its counterpart. The unit is lightweight, easy to manipulate and install, and incorporates the following important features:
The
In order to make the backing ring selection process less confusing, IPP has designed its products in conjuction with the most commonly used SDR pipes in the industry. Our standard lines include SDR7 in sizes 1/2 through 16 and SDR11 in sizes 2-54 with many more to choose from, and all are designed with a safety factor of 2. What if IPP doesnt have a backing ring with the exact SDR rating as that of the pipe being specified? A simple calculation provides the answer. For purpose of illustration, lets assume 12 SDR 9 pipe has been specified, but IPP can only offer SDR11 or SDR7 backing rings in this size. You can choose to use the SDR11 backing ring, however, the safety factor will be less than 2. The calculation for determining the safety factor is simple. Take the pressure rating of the backing ring, in this case 160 psi, and multiply it by its safety factor of 2 (320). Divide 320 by the operating pressure or SDR of the specified pipe, 200 psi, yields a safety factor of 1.6. Using SDR7 backing rings would yield an ample safety factor of 2.67 (267*2/200=2.67). If you were to use the AWWA C207 Class D flange with an actual rating of 60 psi, you would yield a safety factor of 0.6. Now you can make a decision about which safety factor is more appropriate for your application. Choosing the proper safety factor will eliminate joint failure, leakage and the need for bolt retorqueing. IPP DELTAFLEX backing rings have gained acceptance into a wide segment of the overall piping market and are being used in the following applications:

IPP Deltaflex Flange Performance on Steel Stub-ends
mproved Piping Products (IPP) markets a patented engineered cross section flange for piping under the trade name IPP Deltaflex flange. The IPP Deltaflex flange engineered principles have been incorporated into a unique line of modern high performance flange products. IPP Deltaflex flanges and back-up rings reduce the cost and weight of a flange without reducing it's pressure performance rating. Three critical factors have influenced the growth and acceptance of the IPP Deltaflex designed flanges in the piping industry.
level, especially when thermal stresses or corrosive conditions exist that could lead to stress corrosion or cracking, either from within or from ambient environments. The IPP Deltaflex pipe flange design is shown in Figure 1. Note the reduced cross section. The unique geometry provides a structure that is lighter in weight and superior in performance than conventional flanges with greater material content. IPP engineers utilize a variation on the I-Beam Principle to create this unique approach to weight reduction. The flange design allows the flange to store energy like a spring and maintain a constant load on the flange faces with changes in system pressure and temperature. Recognizing that new designs are not immediately integrated into well established engineering practices such as piping system designs, IPP knew that to be successful they would have to provide solid engineering analysis of stress levels in the flanges to piping design engineers. IPP initiated a rigorous stress analysis in addition to performing a series of physical hydrostatic tests. The analysis was
National standards for flanges such as ANSI B16.5 and AWWA C207 were developed many years ago. This was long before the sophisticated computer analytical tools available today, which can be utilized to design flanges. As a result IPP has shown that the standard flanges called out were either over designed in the case of ANSI or not applicable for modern piping materials such as thermoplastics as is the case for AWWA. Historically engineers have been under the impression that the only method to reduce the cost of standard flanges was to make them thinner and thinner. As a result flange pressure and sealing performance has suffered, especially in the stainless steel industry.
The design problems listed above and their solutions utilizing IPP Deltaflex flange engineering methods are the basis of the discussion that follows. The IPP Deltaflex back-up flange offered by Improved Piping Products, Inc. has been popular with piping system designers and fabricators for several reasons. It is lighter in weight (about 50% of the weight of conventional flanges) and therefore less expensive. In addition, it is easier to handle in the field. The reduced cost of a two piece stub-end back-up ring design instead of the conventional weldneck flange also eliminates the field hassle of flange alignment or "two holing" for about the same cost as the weldneck. Now, a sophisticated engineering analysis has shown that there are also strong structural engineering preferences for this design with its reduced stress

Please see Figure 2, which is a finite element analysis of a 24" standard weldneck flange designed for 275psi working pressure (415psi test pressure) and IPP Deltaflex at the same conditions. The results indicated that because of the conservative design, conventional flanges are extraordinarily stiff members as compared to the process pipe they are welded to. This results in high stress levels (25,00psi) in the thinner and more critical pipe wall just aft of the flange hub-to-pipe weld for the conventional flange (2A) versus 13,000psi in the IPP

was performed using Auto Design (version 3.1), finite element analysis software that calculates and plots all principal stress levels including the von Mises based on the test pressures and bolt loads on defined elements of the flange and cross sectional elements. Bolt loads were assumed to be uniform in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Appendix 2 and test pressures were used for internal pipe loads. In the following we will examine the stress level in a series of standard flange designs and compare them to the IPP Deltaflex flanges at the same physical conditions. The results of these stress analysis were of interest for what they revealed about the stress level in commonly used flanges. They confirm the IPP design stress levels are equal or below that obtained with conventional flanges with major material savings. The examples include comparisons for common flanges such as:

or caustics can contribute to stress corrosion, cracking and eventual pipe failure in this location of high stress level in the pipe wall. Figure 4 shows there is still a high stress level in the pipe aft of the slip-on stub-end with the IPP Deltaflex back-up ring design, but it is lower than that of the conventional flange design. Thus, a lighter member actually reduces the maximum stress in a pipe flange area for a given process pressure and bolt load. Another interesting result of the IPP finite element analysis is that pipe and flange stress is virtually independent of bolt loading (except for local compressive stress) because of higher compression of the gasket and bending of the flange. Another advantage of the IPP Deltaflex flange is that excessive bolt tightening leads to flange flexure rather than bolt elongation. This can help solve a classic problem of flange gasket leaks or crushing of the gasket material when a piping system cools down. If there is no flexibility in the flange, the bolts can be stressed beyond their yield point during high thermal excursions. When the system cools down, the bolts return to an elongated state, resulting in potential leaks at the flange connection. The IPP Deltaflex, on the other hand, stores elastic energy like a belleville washer and maintains constant tension on the bolts thereby maintaining the moisture seal and eliminating the need to retighten the bolts. Results from proof tests conducted by IPP in accordance with the United Pressure Vessel Code ASME Section VIII, Division 1 and ANSI B31.3 confirm the superiority of the IPP Deltaflex flange design. Fatigue tests were also performed in which a 4" flange mounted to a 50" pipe section was subjected to 90,000 cycles of 0.6" amplitude without failure. Conclusions:

IPP Deltaflex flange (2B). The flange body itself is a mass of metal with hardly any stress associated. Figure 3A shows a conventional slip-on flange with a similar stress pattern. IPP's engineers believe the high stress concentrated just aft of the hub is a result of the high bending loads that are transferred to the pipe from the flange, with little of the energy absorbed by deformation of the flange. Note that the stress at this location for the example shown is approximately 65% higher than the mean pipe stress. While the stress level is still below yield for most materials used, it could be cause for concern in corrosive applications. Corrosive agents such as chlorides

The lighter weight IPP Deltaflex flange conforms to vital ANSI B16.5 dimensions and offers advantages of corrosion resistance, higher yield resistance and total dimensional interchangeability with forged, plate and cast iron flanges. The IPP Deltaflex flange stores energy like a belleville washer and is better able to tolerate thermal stresses and pipe vibration. This feature maintains the original bolt torque values when flange joints are tightened. Retightening is not necessary and costly spiral-wound gaskets are not required. The IPP Deltaflex/stub-end combination results in a lower pipe wall stress level. Stress is transferred to the more massive forged stub-end. The wide bearing surface and large radius cast in the flange bore minimizes stress risers.
Note: Minor modifications can be made to the inside diameter of the IPP Deltaflex flange without derating the operating pressure of the design. This feature allows the IPP Deltaflex inside diameter to be modified to accommodate slip-on welded stub-ends, butt-welded stub-ends and metric pipe sizes with ANSI bolt circles at an additional charge. Major modifications should be referred to the factory prior to ordering.
