Heavy-duty compensators for deep-water dredging technology subjected to harsh operating conditions
A new dredging method was required to excavate in challenging soil conditions at a water depth of 150 meters. To this purpose, the Grab Excavation System (GES) was developed.
Advanced compensators were used to pressurize the hydraulic system. In addition, two 250-liter heavy-duty compensators were applied to compensate for oil volume changes caused by hydraulic cylinder actuation. The compensators were subjected to extensive (dynamic) performance testing.
