From Stress/Motion
The PROCO Series 520, Series 530, and Series 540 non-metallic connectors are designed to match inlet and
outlet flanges of most industrial fan manufacturers and are found in: Ventilating Systems, Industrial Process
Ducting Systems, Chemical-Petrochemical Plants, Power Generating Plants, Pulp/Paper Plants, Water-Waste
Water Sewage and Odor Control Ducting Systems. Specify the PROCO Series 520, Series 530 and Series 540
non-metallic connectors for installation between anchor points or next to mechanical equipment such as: Fans,
Blowers, Compressors and Hot Air Ducts. The PROCO Series 500 non-metallic flexible connectors are designed
to: (1) Absorb Ducting Movements, (2) Reduce System Noise, (3) Isolate Vibration, (4) Compensate Alignment/
Offset. Our history in the manufacture of expansion joint products dates back to 1930. When an engineered
solution is needed to solve a ducting problem, call PROCO.
Engineered For Your Application: The PROCO Series 500 non-metallic connectors are available in U-Designs,
Arch-Designs and W-Designs. Each style offers different movement and pressure ratings to fit required specifica-
tion. Available styles include:
• Style 520: Known as a U-Type, this integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in applications where
large movements are required and where vibration and sound absorption are needed. This non-metallic fan
connector can be manufactured in both round and rectangular shapes.
• Style 530: Known as an Arch-Type, this integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in applications
where large movements and short overall lengths are required. Primarily used for Clean Hot Air/Gas Service, the
Style 530 is designed with a high profile molded arch, giving it exceptional movement capabilities. This non-
metallic connector can be manufactured in both round and rectangular shapes.
• Style 540: Known as a W-Type, this integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in applications
where large movements are required for Standard Hot Air/Gas Service. The Style 540 is designed with a
molded radius allowing for greater movement capability and should be used when the U-Type (520) does
not meet movement specifications. This non-metallic connector can be manufactured in both round and
rectangular shapes.
• Other Styles Available From PROCO Include: Style 501 (Flat Belt Type), Style 502 (Flat Belt Arch-Type) and
190-K Navy Fan Connector (U-Type or Arch-Type). These styles are included in this brochure.
Retaining Rings/Backing Bars. Retaining rings (round) or backing bars (rectangular) are required for Se-
ries 500 non-metallic connectors and can be furnished by PROCO upon request. Standard construction
calls for 2" wide by 3/8" thick carbon steel bars drilled to customer specifications. Other materials of con-
struction can be provided upon request. In addition, PROCO can also supply T-Bolt Latch Clamps for round
applications under 20" ID.
Available Fabric Materials. PROCO can manufacture the Series 500 non-metallic connectors in a wide selection of
materials which include Chlorobutyl, Neoprene, Hypalon®, EPDM and Viton®. Material selection is dependent
upon application. Consult the PROCO “Chemical to Elastomer Guide” (available upon request) for appropriate se-
lection of materials.
