BFM Compensator
The BFM compensator consists of a connector and two sleeves. Components must be ordered individually.
Recommendation for static applications and slight vibrations: A (distance between the sleeves) the length L of the connector is ideal -10 mm
Available diameter
100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400mm
Interconnections
83mm long with 6mm flanged edge for clamping ring connections, 304L stainless steel
wall thickness
DN 100 mm: 1.5 mm, DN 150 mm and larger: 2 mm
Pipe connections
Seeflex 040E, ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane coating, wall thickness: 0.9 mm
Other lengths, diameters and materials available upon request.
The BFM® compensator is available to damp vibrations and oscillations in piping systems and to decouple individual parts of a system from each other. To achieve the best possible performance, JACOB and BFM® have combined their respective systems into a single product: the BFM® sleeve is now available from JACOB with a 6mm flanged edge. In this way, the BFM® modular compensator, consisting of two sleeves and a connector, can be optimally combined with the proven JACOB tension ring system. The connector is made of particularly durable polyurethane and can be installed without tools. In general, the BFM® system can be integrated into a modular piping system without the need for welding work. The BFM connection system, like the JACOB FOOD GRADE range, meets the requirements of the FDA and CE 1935/2004.
FOOD GRADE: CE 1935/2004 plus FDA. In addition, the special design of the compensator prevents corners where food can get trapped.
Temperature resistance: -25 to 110°C
Each expansion joint consists of two sleeves and a connector.
Bushing: 83 mm length with 6 mm flanged edge for clamping ring connection, 304 L stainless steel
