In order to have a long life for installations it is necessary that all elements, including lenticular compensators, have a good reliability. This desire can be did by technology of manufactoring and assembly of compensators, the material for lenses and by maintenance.of compensator %K reliability %K maintenance %K lenticular compensators %K life cycles %K lens %K technology %U http://www.utgjiu.ro/rev_mec/mecanica/pdf/2011-02/14_Burlacu.pdf
