The pressure compensator is an important equipment of the deep-sea hydraulic system to provide the functions of pressure and volume compensation. In this paper, the structure features and static force analysis of the pressure compensator are studied. The physical model of the pressure compensator is established, and its dynamic characteristics influenced by the ambient pressure, the compensated flow and the temperature change are all analyzed. The entire working process of the pressure compensator is then researched. Therefore, two design criteria for reliability and dynamic characteristics respectively are proposed. A pressure compensator for 6000 m deep in the sea was designed and manufactured. Simulations and high-pressure experiments of the designed pressure compensator were conducted. The results show that the dynamic response of the compensated pressure under each input is all composed of a ramp change, a step change and a damped oscillation. The effective area of the rolling diaphragm, the spring stiffness and the mass of the diaphragm-piston assembly are the key design parameters to ensure the reliability and good dynamic characteristics of the pressure compensator. Simulation and high-pressure experiments verified the volume and pressure compensation function of the pressure compensator in the deep-sea environment.
