The anchor loads generated by using this type of Axial Expansion Compensator are high. It is worth keeping in mind the type of pipework bracketry that will be used. A guide bracket with a low frictional resistance should be used.
Please note these units are not suitable for use on a drop rod system and need to be suitably guided. Please consult the Expansion Compensator Application Guide for positioning of anchor points and subsequent support centres. (See Page 114)
