Abstract
A mechanism for limiting vibration amplitudes in a pumping system includes a plurality of pendulum absorbers coupled with a carrier and each having a pivoting range. The pendulum absorbers each further include a first and a second contact surface that contacts an outer peripheral surface of the carrier at limit stop positions, and each having a shape that is conforming with a shape of the outer peripheral surface. The pumping system may be used for pumping liquid nitrogen.
