The effect is to close the hydraulic circuit and to restrain the piston with the
hydraulic fluid. This mode is termed the LOCKED CONDITION.
To ensure movement of the piston under load at a controlled speed, and also to
assist the control valve to lift without full load reversal, the shock arrestor is fitted
with an adjustable needle/orifice valve.
This secondary valve permits hydraulic fluid to bypass the main control valve at a
controlled rate.
The needle valve is normally set to restrict the velocity of the piston to a maximum
speed of 2 mm per second at the rated load of the shock arrestor. This mode is
termed CREEP or BLEED RATE.

This range of high stiffness yoke clamps has been specifically developed
by Carpenter & Paterson for use in the nuclear industry and for use in
conjunction with our range of mechanical/hydraulic shock arrestors and
rigid struts.
The stiffness values of these components have been determined by test.
It should be noted that the pin ø P and the dimension G will depend on
whether the clamp is used in conjunction with a rigid strut or shock arrestor.
These dimensions must be specified. The component detailed is for use
with a rigid strut.

stiffness is not a consideration.
Care should be taken when selecting to ensure that the load rating of the Strut,
etc., is not greater than the load capacity of the Clamp. For loads greater than the
rated load Yoke Type Restraint Clamps should be used.
It should be noted that the pin diameters and gap C will depend on whether the

The Carpenter & Paterson pipe whip restraint is an elastic device which
restrains pipework and absorbs energy in the event of a pipe failure.
In the unlikely event of a rupture or break in a pressure piping system,
the large jet forces generated by the escaping fluid may cause the
pipework to ‘whip’, that is, to move in a direction which is at an angle to
the original longitudinal axis of the pipe.
It is desirable to provide pipe restraint devices which will limit the
movement of the ruptured pipe, and to prevent impact damage to local
components.
This type of whip restraint offers the following features:-
1. The restraint absorbs the energy of the moving pipe and has high
energy absorption in relation to its size.
