Fluid Energy Controls 316 Stainless Steel Pulsation Dampener is specifically designed to satisfy the needs of petrochemical, reverse osmosis and water processing industries. It can effectively dampen the damaging pulsations caused by the reciprocating pumps. This reduces the possibility of costly damage to pipelines, instrumentation, loosened pipe fittings, leakage and downtime.

Features:

• Significantly reduces pump pulsations
• Reduces pump vibration and noise
• Increases pump service life; reduces wear and fatigue on pump’s internal parts
• Repairable in the field
• All wetted parts are of 316 series stainless steel for protection against corrosion

Specifications:

• Volume — 60 cubic inches
• Maximum working pressure — 1,500 PSI
• Operating temperature range — -20°F to +185°F
• Diameter — 4.5 inches
• Length — 11 inches
• Port — 1" NPT (female)
• Weight — 10 lbs.
  

Installation, operation and maintenance are simple…

Installation — Install the dampener as close as possible to the discharge port of the pump.

Operation

• Precharge dampener with dry Nitrogen to approximately 70% of the system operating pressure.
• Check the precharge pressure periodically.
