Abstract

The compensator comprises, in known manner, a body (1) in which are defined two pressure chambers (2, 3), a piston (4) carrying a valve (6) capable of bringing the chambers into communication with one another, a bearing mechanism (8, 81) and a reaction mechanism. The reaction mechanism comprises a second piston (5) sliding inside the first, a deformable member (8), and a locking mechanism (10, 11), in such a manner that the output pressure (P1) as a function of the input pressure (Po) has more than two slopes.
