Water treatment plants use pumps, pipelines, valves, and mechanical equipment that can experience vibration, movement, pressure changes, and installation-related displacement. MechFlex manufactures expansion bellows and flexible expansion solutions for water treatment plant applications, helping accommodate movement and reduce stress on connected piping and equipment.
Can Rubber Expansion Joints Be Used in Water Treatment Plants?
Yes, rubber expansion joints can be used in water treatment and pumping systems where vibration, movement, and noise isolation are required. The suitable rubber compound and joint design depend on the water type, operating pressure, temperature, movement, pipe size, and installation conditions.
