The corrugated compensators used in power plants are mainly made of stainless steel, which makes the compensators resistant to strong corrosion and can adapt to the environment of various corrosive media that may exist in the power plant. They can compensate for the axial, angular, lateral and combined displacements of the pipeline caused by thermal deformation, mechanical deformation and various mechanical vibrations.

For example, in the steam pipeline of a power plant, when the steam temperature changes and causes the pipeline to expand and contract due to heat and cold, the stainless steel corrugated compensator can absorb these displacements and prevent the pipeline from being damaged due to excessive deformation; it can withstand a certain pressure and adapt to the pressure environment of the medium in the power plant pipeline to ensure the stable operation of the pipeline system; it helps to prevent leakage of the medium in the pipeline.

Stainless steel bellows compensators are designed based on pipeline size and pressure rating. Power plants must consider the actual pipeline conditions when selecting a bellows compensator.
If the pipeline is too large or too small, or the pressure rating is too high or too low, the performance and service life of the bellows compensator will be affected.

The installation location should take into account the pipeline's routing and support conditions.

Improper installation can cause stress and vibration in the pipeline, impacting the performance and service life of the stainless steel bellows compensator.

Regularly inspect the appearance and performance of the stainless steel bellows compensator.

If damage or deformation is found, replace or repair it promptly.

During use, do not arbitrarily change the pipeline's routing or support conditions to avoid affecting the performance of the stainless steel bellows compensator.

If there are impurities or foreign matter in the pipeline, remove them immediately to prevent them from affecting the performance of the stainless steel bellows compensator.
