Compensation mat
Compensation mat
Polyethylene foam mats for detensioning on the arms of Z-type and U-type thermal extension compensators. The number and the thickness of the mats installed in the specific sections of the utility pipeline is determined by design, depending on the design compensator displacement and the admissible yield of the mats. In terms of the length, the mats have to cover min. 2/3 of the compensation arm length. The compensation mats are mandatory structural elements of heat supply utilities, as per SP 41-105-202 Code.
