Hydraulic accumulators
Hydraulic accumulators are considered to be the most dangerous component in hydraulics. It is a reserve of energy under pressure.
There are 3 types of accumulator, all of which are widely used:
1- Bladder accumulators
2- Diaphragm accumulators
3- Piston accumulators.
Note: only use nitrogen!
In the event of rupture of the diaphragm, bladder or piston seal, the nitrogen/oil mixture is not explosive.

Description:
The hydraulic accumulator is a device used in hydraulic systems to store energy in the form of compressed fluid. It consists of a reservoir and a piston that moves inside the reservoir. When fluid is pumped into the accumulator, it compresses the piston, storing energy. This energy can then be released when required to power hydraulic actuators. Hydraulic accumulators are widely used in industries such as automotive, aerospace and construction to provide instant and steady power to machinery and equipment.
Features:
- Robust steel reservoir
- Free-moving piston
- Safety valve to prevent excess pressure
- Hydraulic connections for fluid inlet and outlet
- Adjustable energy storage capacity
Benefits:
- Provides an instantaneous energy source for hydraulic actuators
- Reduces energy consumption by storing excess energy
- Improves the performance and efficiency of hydraulic systems
- Enables faster and more accurate work cycles
- Reduces vibration and shock in hydraulic systems
- Increases the life of hydraulic components by reducing stress on pumps and motors.
