The HydroLync Diaphragm Accumulator (HDA) stores fluid pressure energy or absorbs pulsations in the system line to maintain hydraulic system stability. The diaphragm accumulator is composed of an upper gas section with a diaphragm
and a fluid section with a lower gas portion.
The fluid section is connected to the hydraulic circuit to intake fluid as the pressure increases and the gas is compressed. When the pressure decreases, the compressed gas expands and discharges the stored fluid into the circuit.
At the bottom of the diaphragm, there is a button or valve poppet. When the accumulator is completely emptied, the valve poppet blocks the hydraulic discharge port to prevent damage to the diaphragm.
