Beta Clamp Installation






            MULTI-LEVEL ASSEMBLY                                  INSTALLATION OF BETA ADAPTER
            ZSi-Foster multi-level pipe clamps permit easy stacking of several tubes or   Beta Adapters are installed in much the same manner as Beta Clamps.
            pipes of the same group. The clamps are connected by stacking bolts.  The weld plate is welded onto exiting structure and the Beta cushion and
            Safety plates are inserted between the clamps to prevent the stacking bolts   adapter is assembled onto it.
            from turning.
            The example below shows a stacking clamp added to a welded clamp,
            however, ZSi-Foster stacking assemblies can be fitted to weld plates, rails,
            or strut in the same manner.
                                                                                                 (1) Weld Plate to
                      (1) After the Top Cushion is                                               Supporting Steel
                      Added, Secure it with the
                      Stack Bolts













                      (2) Add Safety Plate to
                      Prevent Stacking Bolts                                                 (2) Push Bottom Half

                      (3) Assemble Another Clamp
                      Onto the Stacking Bolt in                                                 (4) Add Top Cushion
                      Same Manner as Single Clamps
                      are Installed

            Stacking Assembly
             •  Weld on welding plate with a fixing bracket.
             •  Wedge on lower clamp-half, insert tube, add upper clamp-half and
               tighten with fixing screws.
             •  Apply a locking plate to upper half of the clamp to prevent fixing screw
               from twisting.
             •  Mount the second tube clamp in exactly the same way.
