What is bladder accumulator used for?
The bladder accumulator is used when a high power output is required. Our specially designed bladder accumulators are capable of operating at maximum pressures of up to 5,000 psi for carbon steel material and up to 2,000 psi for stainless steel material.
Can you charge an accumulator with argon?
The next most plentiful inert gas is argon, which makes up less than 1 percent of the earth’s atmosphere. Under no circumstances should an accumulator be pre-charged with oxygen or air.
What gas is used to charge hydraulic accumulators?
dry nitrogen
An accumulator typically is pre-charged with dry nitrogen. Nitrogen does not react unfavorably with hydraulic oil under pressure, and since it composes nearly 78 percent of the earth’s atmosphere, it is the least expensive gas that can be used safely.
What is the HYDAC universal charging and testing unit?
The charging and testing units. The HYDAC universal charging and testing unit FPU, used to charge bladder, piston and diaphragm accumulators with nitrogen. Therefore, it also helps to test and alter the pre-charge pressure. The nitrogen charging units.
How to charge hydraulic accumulators with nitrogen?
The HYDAC charging and testing unit FPU help to charge accumulators with nitrogen. They are also useful for checking or changing the existing pre-charge pressure in accumulators. Therefore, for this purpose, we screw the charging and testing unit onto the gas valve of the hydraulic accumulator.
