Buffer
KS-JIS Cast Iron Buffer is a valve accessory that conforms to the Korean and Japanese Industrial Standard (KS-JIS) specifications and is mainly used in industrial fluid piping systems to mitigate shocks and vibrations in the piping system and to protect valves and equipment from damage. Made of cast iron material, this snubber is characterized by corrosion resistance and sturdy construction, and is suitable for use in various fluid control systems.
Key Features
Material: The buffer body is made from cast iron, known for its excellent durability, strength, and resistance to high pressures, making it ideal for industrial applications.
Design Standards: Manufactured according to KS (Korean Standard) and JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) specifications, these buffers are built to high-quality standards and are compatible with other KS-JIS standardized components.
Damping Mechanism: The buffer typically contains a spring or elastomeric element inside the cast iron housing. This mechanism absorbs energy from pressure surges or mechanical shocks, reducing the impact on the pipeline and connected equipment.
End Connections: KS-JIS cast iron buffers are available with various end connection types, including flanged, threaded, or welded ends, allowing for easy integration into existing pipeline systems.
Maintenance: These buffers are designed for durability and require minimal maintenance. The robust cast iron construction ensures that the buffer can withstand harsh operating conditions.
