An unplanned breakdown can lead to leaks, pressure losses, damage to equipment, and in the worst case, production stoppages. Regular inspections help identify worn components in a timely manner and allow maintenance and replacements to be planned before problems arise.
Our recommendation: Inspect your rubber expansion joints at least every two years, or according to the operating requirements of your plant.
On the plus side, three simple checkpoints can provide valuable insights into the condition of a rubber compensator. This allows you to reduce the risk of operational disruptions, increase plant availability and make maintenance operations more planned and predictable.

For Operators and Maintenance Technicians
Find out today which rubber expansion joints in your facility were last inspected and when the next inspection should be carried out. A simple inspection plan is a first step towards better control over both operational reliability and maintenance costs.
For buyers
The cheapest rubber compensator is not always the most cost-effective solution. Only when purchasing cost, service life and maintenance needs are weighed together can the total cost be assessed over the product's life cycle.
