What Are Accumulator Stations?
Every hydraulic system works under pressure. Depending on the application, pressure must be monitored and regulated, while fluid volume is managed for backup or delivery. An Accumulator Station achieves this efficiently.
A single accumulator may not always be practical due to technical or commercial reasons. In such cases, multiple accumulators are connected together to form an accumulator station.
The key to selecting the right accumulator station is understanding your system requirements and specifications.
Technical Details for Designing Accumulator Stations
To size and configure the correct accumulator station, the following system parameters are essential. These details ensure reliable performance, safe operation, and proper energy storage capacity:
- Minimum working pressure (bar)
- Maximum working pressure (bar)
- Minimum working temperature (°C)
- Maximum working temperature (°C)
- Volume of oil to be delivered (litres)
- Cycle time for oil delivery (seconds)
Composition of an Accumulator Station
An Accumulator Station is a ready-to-use hydraulic system designed with all the necessary controls for safe and efficient operation. Depending on system requirements, it may include:
- Single bladder accumulator with nitrogen bottle
- Multiple bladder accumulators connected via common piping and ball valves
- Single or multiple piston accumulators with nitrogen bottles
- Accumulators mounted on a support frame with instrumentation
Each station is custom-built to customer specifications, with the required type, make, and size of accumulator. Key accessories such as ball valves, safety blocks, pressure gauges, and relief valves are included. All connections are provided with leak-free carbon steel pipes and fittings.
Whatever your application requirements, our team can size, design, and supply the right accumulator station to ensure system reliability and safety.
We also provide below-mentioned types of Accumulators Stations and related accessories designed to ensure safe operation, proper mounting, and effective handling of the Accumulators.
