Temporary Pipeworks Restraint System (TPR System)


Simplicity and Ease of Inspection Makes the Difference

We put you rst. And keep you ahead.

FMC Technologies' Temporary Pipeworks Restraint System (TPR System) is used on high pressure temporary owlines. Properly applied, this system will provide an additional level of protection for personnel and physical assets by minimizing the amount of sudden movement should there be an unexpected separation in a owline while under pressure.

Temporary Pipeworks Restraint System (TPR System)


Simplicity and Ease of Inspection Makes the Difference
The FMC TPR System provides the end user a simpler and faster means of installation onto owlines. There are only two elements to the system: Restraint Links (R-Links) and Connector Links (C-Links) with integrated Hitch Pins. The Restraint Links are used to choke on piping termination points and extend down the length of the ow line being wrapped strategically around union connections and on swivel joint elbows. The C-Links are used to tie the R-Links together. An issue with other available restraint systems is that whenever leakage occurs at a union or swivel joint connection during pumping operations, the restraint system must be completely dismantled from one end of the owline to the area of leakage. The FMC TPR System can be untied anywhere along the owline and quickly re-installed after the leaking connection is addressed.

Another issue with other restraint systems is the difficulty of the inspection. Why use a system that is hard to inspect at the site? Be condent the TPR System is ready for the job. The links in this system are manufactured with a unique combination of inspection features. The FMC TPR System can quickly be inspected before and after each job. The construction and materials used in the FMC TPR System Links are such that they outlast and have better chemical resistance than any competitive offering. The TPR System should never be considered as a substitute for due diligence with respect to proper selection of pressure containing equipment and execution of a regular inspection and maintenance program on them. The TPR System can signicantly reduce, but never eliminate, damage in cases of owline separation under pressure.
