Elbow Type Pressure Balanced Expansion Joint – Efficient Solution for Complex Piping Systems

The Elbow Type Pressure Balanced Expansion Joint is a specialized component used in piping systems where directional changes and pressure thrust balancing are essential. By absorbing axial and lateral movements while preserving a balanced internal pressure, this kind of expansion joint reduces stress on attached equipment and does away with the need for external anchoring. This arrangement is particularly helpful for pipes that need to bend 90 degrees due to layout modifications or space restrictions, including those used in HVAC systems, chemical refineries, and thermal power plants. An additional compensating bellow is used to counterbalance the pressure push produced by the system's internal pressure in order to achieve the pressure balancing mechanism. Key features of Elbow Type Pressure Balanced Expansion Joints include: Absorption of multi-directional movement (axial and lateral) Elimination of pressure thrust force on the piping system Ideal for directional cha...
