HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATORS

Hydrocare makes customer-specific piston accumulators. In hydraulic circuits, the accumulator allows:

  • Energy storage: saves energy without loss and redistributes when necessary, reducing installed power.
  • Pressure compensation: absorb pressure spikes from pumps or other components to control pressures and flows in a hydraulic circuit.
  • Volume control: absorbs variations in fluid volume caused by temperature changes in a closed hydraulic circuit and maintains a nominal pressure.
  • Maintains Fluid Flow: An accumulator can maintain fluid flow in the event of a pump failure and can also be used as a mobile fluid reserve under pressure.
  • Emergency Energy Storage: In the event of a main energy source failure, a battery can provide enough energy to complete an operation or complete a full hydraulic cycle.
  • Prevents the mixing of liquids: transfer of energy from one liquid to another without the risk of mixing.
  • Shock absorber: Suppresses shocks and vibrations in hydraulic systems of lifting vehicles (e.g. forklift trucks) and provides a real suspension of the load on a gas spring.
