Compensator
The compensator takes relative motion between a screen or crusher and the fixed air or material duct. Rubber or fabric-reinforced bellows keep dust tightness despite vibration.

Operating principle
A flexible bellow sits between machine and fixed-duct flanges. It allows axial, lateral and angular movement without losing tightness. Rubber and fabric reinforcement follow temperature, dust and travel.
Where this machine is used
Connection of vibrating screens and crushers to dust collection, chutes and pneumatic lines.
Advantages
Takes machine vibration travel
Rubber or fabric-reinforced bellow
Keeps dust tightness to the fixed duct

Frequently asked sizing questions
What data is required for a compensator?
Required data includes size and length, flange pattern, axial, lateral and angular travel, frequency, pressure difference, temperature, medium, dust loading and orientation. Movement types must not be added without technical review.
May the compensator absorb pipe loads?
It is primarily intended for defined relative movement and does not replace adequately supported ducting. Weight, misalignment, pressure thrust and installation loads must be considered separately and controlled by suitable guides or anchors.
How is tightness defined before ordering?
Medium, particle size, pressure difference, temperature, movement and permitted leakage must be defined. A generic 'dust-tight' statement does not replace an agreed test condition; binding criteria belong in the specification and quotation.
