What are the differences in application areas and functions between expansion joints and flexible connections (the rubber type)?

Our centrifugal fans have rubber flexible connections at the inlet and outlet. This is mainly to prevent fan vibration caused by stress in the inlet and outlet pipelines.

What expansion joints are used on it? What is the sealing performance? It would be best to have a photo.

Expansion joints are used in situations where pipes need to expand and contract, as well as to facilitate the installation and maintenance of large-diameter valves. Flexible connections are used to reduce vibration, thereby minimizing the mutual influence of vibrations between equipment and pipelines.

Reduce vibration and stress on pipelines and equipment.
