TurbineFlow Fabric Expansion Joint

MAXWOR TurbineFlow Fabric Expansion Joint solutions are high-performance fabric compensator systems developed to absorb thermal expansion in air and gas lines exposed to high flow velocities, dynamic pressure fluctuations, and continuous vibration.

These compensators are especially used in turbine, fan, and blower connections, reducing vibrations, pulsations, and mechanical loads caused by high-flow conditions, thereby improving equipment safety.

Thanks to their aerodynamic design and multilayer flexible structure, the TurbineFlow series provides high movement capacity with low reaction force, delivering reliable performance in energy and process systems.

Technical Specifications

Design and Operating Principle

TurbineFlow Fabric Expansion Joint designs are optimized using an aerodynamic structure suitable for high flow velocities and a multilayer fabric system resistant to dynamic loads.

The compensator structure reduces mechanical stresses in duct and equipment systems by absorbing thermal expansion, vibrations, and pressure pulsations caused by high-volume gas and air flows.

Systems can be manufactured in circular or rectangular cross-sections and offer suitable solutions for different process designs with flanged or frame-type connection options.

Thanks to its vibration-damping layer structure, it helps protect fan, blower, and turbine equipment from mechanical stress.
