Kompressionskleidungsstücke

Kompressionsklappen, also known as compression valves, are specialized components used in various fluid and gas systems. Their primary function is to regulate the flow of a medium by adjusting the cross-sectional area through which it passes. This adjustment is typically achieved through a mechanical mechanism that compresses or expands a flexible element or closes off a passage.

These valves are often employed in applications where precise control over pressure or flow rate is critical. For example, in some hydraulic systems, compression valves can be used to dampen pressure fluctuations or to limit the maximum pressure in a line. In pneumatic systems, they might be used to control the speed of actuators by restricting airflow. The design of a compression valve can vary significantly depending on the specific application, but the underlying principle of mechanical constriction remains consistent.

The materials used in the construction of compression valves are chosen based on the properties of the fluid or gas being handled, as well as the operating temperature and pressure. Common materials include various types of metals, plastics, and specialized elastomers. Maintenance requirements for compression valves are generally minimal, but periodic checks for wear and tear on the sealing surfaces or compression elements are important to ensure continued reliable operation.
