发明名称 PRESSURE COMPENSATOR FOR A SUBSEA DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD
摘要 A pressure compensator for a subsea device is provided. The pressure compensator provides pressure balancing between a chamber of the subsea device and the surrounding environment when the subsea device is installed at a subsea location. The pressure compensator includes an intermediate compensation chamber that is provided by a compensator enclosure. The compensator enclosure is sealed against the subsea environment. The compensator enclosure includes a bellows portion that is deformable to change the volume of the intermediate compensation chamber. The pressure compensator further includes a flexible hose disposed inside the intermediate compensation chamber. A volume inside the flexible hose provides a main compensation chamber.

主权项 1. A pressure compensator for a subsea device, the pressure compensator providing pressure balancing between a chamber of the subsea device and the surrounding environment when the subsea device is installed at a subsea location, the pressure compensator comprising: an intermediate compensation chamber, provided by a compensator enclosure sealed against the subsea environment, the compensator enclosure including a bellows portion deformable to change a volume of the intermediate compensation chamber; a flexible hose, disposed inside the intermediate compensation chamber, a volume inside the flexible hose providing a main compensation chamber; and a flow connection from the main compensation chamber inside the flexible hose towards the chamber of the subsea device, wherein the main compensation chamber inside the flexible hose is sealed from the intermediate compensation chamber in a liquid tight manner, and wherein the flexible hose is deformable to change the volume of the main compensation chamber to accommodate volume changes of a liquid filling the chamber of the subsea device.
