1. DESCRIPTION
1.1 FUNCTION
Fluids are practically incompressible and
cannot therefore store pressure energy.
The compressibility of a gas is utilised

HYDAC diaphragm accumulators are
based on this principle, using nitrogen as
the compressible medium.
A diaphragm accumulator consists of a

diaphragm acting as the gas-proof screen.

hydraulic circuit so that the diaphragm

pressure increases and the gas is
compressed. When the pressure drops,
the compressed gas expands and forces

At the base of the diaphragm is a valve
poppet. This shuts off the hydraulic outlet

empty and thus prevents damage to the
diaphragm.
