expansion joints
Merkmale
- In line pressure balanced expansion joints.
- Pressure thrust eliminated by means of force balancing design principle.
- Designed to apply minimum forces onto connecting, load sensitive equipment.
- Mainly for axial and lateral movements.
Vorteile
- No need for main anchors to obtain pressure thrust load.
- Minimum load transferred onto connecting equipment - Not affected by system pressure fluctuations.
- Highly customizable design: Bellows geometry, Material options and combinations.
- Multiply bellows with low spring rate and high cycle life.
