1500cc Pressure Compensator

1500ccHPC

The Fathom Systems 1500cc compensator can be used for:

  • Pressure compensation.
  • Thermal or other changes in system volume.
  • Suppression of pressure spiking in hydraulic systems.

A colour coded piston end provides visual indication of the state of fill of the compensator and the pressure rating of the compensator.

Made of Acetal and Stainless Steel with neoprene seals the compensator can be used with a wide range of fluids.

Compensators are available with a number of pressure ratings. Other options include state of fill sensors and alternative pipe connections.

Fathom Systems also supplies a range of other compensators for specific subsea applications, including other sizes and zero pressure (bladder) compensators 

Guidance notes on compensator design and applications are available on the Fathom Systems.

NOTE:

The compensator is not supplied with a pressure relief valve as standard.The system to which it is fitted MUST be fitted with a pressure relief valve.
