Compensators for valves & pipes

Axial, lateral and rubber expansion joints for SKID process systems

Armaturenfabrik Compensators for valves & pipelines Axial, lateral and rubber compensators for SKID process plants

Compensators are indispensable components in pipeline construction. They compensate for temperature fluctuations, pressure changes and movements, reduce vibrations and protect your systems from mechanical loads.
Our compensators are designed for use in steam systems, the chemical and process industries, water and wastewater technology and plant engineering.

Valve production and plant engineering – compensators as system components

Compensators are far more than just flexible connecting elements – they are a central component of modern valve and system solutions. In complex piping systems, they take on the task of compensating for expansion, vibrations and pressure fluctuations and thus make a decisive contribution to operational safety, durability and efficiency.
Our compensators are not just standard products, but are used as integrated system components in valve production and plant engineering.

This means for you:

  • Integration in SKID assemblies – for modular and compact system solutions
  • Special versions for high temperature and aggressive media – ideal for power plants, chemical and process industries
  • Combination with heating jacket and insulation – for maximum energy efficiency and safety
  • Plant engineering expertise – we plan and manufacture complete valve stations, pump and compressor systems as well as individual piping assemblies


With this combination, we create customized solutions that not only supply individual components, but also complete systems for your industrial requirements.
