  Let me share some little-known facts about compensators with everyone.

  The shape of the compensator shall conform to the specifications outlined in the design plan.

  When a compensator’s pipeline crosses a structural wall, it is common practice to integrate the concrete wall and install a stainless steel waterproof sleeve to provide maintenance for the pipeline.

  The flexible stainless steel waterproof sleeve of the compensator facilitates easy installation and maintenance of pipelines. By using pipe support brackets and a steel compensator to form a flexible stainless steel waterproof sleeve, you can securely fix temporarily immobile pipelines for operational purposes. The installation of these sleeves effectively prevents pipeline disassembly, damage during home renovations, and improper installation of sleeves, thereby avoiding damage to wall surfaces when pipelines pass through walls and preventing cross-contamination. If space constraints require that indoor water supply and drainage pipes must be positioned below drainage pipes, it is essential to install sleeves on the water supply and drainage pipes to prevent contamination. Since drainage pipes in residential buildings are subject to standard restrictions regarding their design, and given that the spacing requirements for fiberglass sewage treatment plants fall below the prescribed standards, a steel flexible stainless steel waterproof sleeve should be installed externally around the water supply pipe, with its length determined according to the design specifications.

  The blade ring with a compensator shape is welded to both sides on two surfaces.

  There are several types of compensator-type stainless steel rigid waterproof sleeves that require attention during installation. As you all know, compensator-type waterproof sleeves come in two varieties: flexible waterproof sleeves and stainless steel rigid waterproof sleeves. Do you know what precautions to take when manufacturing stainless steel rigid waterproof sleeves? Not sure? Well, we’re here to help—let’s dive right in and introduce them to you.

  When installing compensating stainless steel rigid waterproof sleeves, the following points should be established:

  1. Before putting the pipeline into use, first rinse each one individually—checking its external shape, water injection status, and surface for any gaps or sand pits.

  2. When fabricating compensator-type waterproof sleeves, the thickness of the wing rings and sleeves must meet the specified requirements. The blade rings of the waterproof sleeve should be welded on both sides, with welds that are smooth, flat, shiny, and free of weld bumps.

  Compensator Shape—Selection of Whether to Apply Coating

  1. Is the exterior of the rigid waterproof sleeve made of compensator-type stainless steel coated or uncoated?

  2. The external coating of compensator-type rigid stainless steel waterproof sleeves is aesthetically pleasing precisely to prevent rusting of the internal coating. Typically, compensator-type rigid stainless steel waterproof sleeves without external paint indicate that the exterior surface is left uncoated. The key reason is that after painting, the surface becomes excessively clean, which can lead to insufficient bonding between the cast concrete and the sleeve itself. Some customers choose not to apply any coating at all. The advantage of leaving the exterior uncoated is that it allows the compensator-type rigid stainless steel waterproof sleeve to bond more firmly with the concrete. Therefore, customers often specify that the compensator shape should not be coated on either the inner or outer surfaces of the rigid stainless steel waterproof sleeve. Some customers even specify that no coating should be applied at all—neither inside nor outside—while others simply stipulate that only the exterior surface should remain uncoated.
