Hydraulic Accumulators

with Back-Up Nitrogen Bottles

1. GENERAL 2. BACK-UP VERSIONS

To complete the accumulator range, 2.1. SET-UP USING THE EXAMPLE OF A BLADDER ACCUMULATOR
HYDAC provides a variety of useful
accessory products. They guarantee Based on bladder accumulator models 20 ... 50 l, the gas-side of these accumulators is
correct installation and optimum designed especially for connecting to nitrogen bottles. A diffuser rod prevents damage
functioning of HYDAC hydraulic to the bladder when the accumulator is charged. This design can also be used for
accumulators. They include nitrogen the separation of fluids (taking into account the volume ratios which apply to bladder
bottles which can be used to back up accumulators).
bladder and piston accumulators. Nitrogen
bottles used as back-ups increase the gas Type 1
volume in the accumulator. This means
that smaller accumulators can be used for
the same gas volume and costs can be Adapte FPS Piping
reduced.

4.1. CHARGING AND TESTING BLOCK F + P
4.1.1 Description
The HYDAC charging and testing block F+P is used to charge and test back-up type
hydraulic accumulators. It has connections for the charging and testing unit FPU-1 and
for pressure gauges. As a safety function, a gas safety valve GSV6 (see catalogue
section given below) can be fitted. In addition, it allows the back-up nitrogen bottles to be
shut off from the hydraulic accumulator.

The condensate drain set consists of a throttle valve and a suitable condensate draining charge and/or test the required gas
hose. It is used to drain any condensate from the nitrogen bottle, in a controlled way. pre-charge pressures in bladder, piston
and diaphragm accumulators. They
guarantee an optimal utilisation of
standard commercial nitrogen bottles up
to a residual pressure of 20 bar and a
maximum pre-charge pressure of 350 bar.
