Stainless steel compensator with welded ends – available from DN 32 to DN 500
Stainless steel compensators, also called stainless steel expansion pieces, are used for installations that are subject to movements. These movements can vary from very slow (thermal expansion or contraction) to very fast (vibration). Thermal expansions can cause unfavorable material stresses in pipes.
Installing compensators prevents this unwanted material tension. Vibrations also cause tension and cause disturbing noises in the working and living environment. Installing compensators prevents this.
