In bigger, rigid-piped valve matrices, heat expansion from different temperatures may cause - if not compensated - deformations on valve housings and thus impair the valve`s function. The outcome of this is unstable process sequences with unforeseeable risks.
Expansion Compensator
The innovative VARICOMP® Expansion Compensator compensates thermal stress. Due to its exceptional construction principle, the VARICOMP® Expansion Compensator is most suitable for aseptic process applications. The decisive advantage of the new VARICOMP® Expansion Compensator is the procket-free design with drain characteristics, an indispensable feature for optimal cleaning in the CIP/SIP method.
The advantages at a glance
- Suitable for hygienic and aseptic applications
- Pocket-free design
- CIP / SIP-able
- Short, compact design
- Intermediate flange design with proven VARIVENT® flange connection
- Compensation distance (tension / compression) limited by metallic stop
- Compensation element with integral vulcanized support rings for high pressure loads
Application:
VARICOMP® Expansion Compensators are used to compensate for thermal stress in pipe systems resulting from thermal expansion. They are especially suitable for valve matrices and fixed process pipe systems.
