A Bladder Accumulator Station is a hydraulic device used to store oil in an automobile. The accumulator is mounted on fixed brackets and consists of a bladder and a control valve group. It also includes oil inlet and outlet pipes and an oil return pipe.
The Bladder Accumulator Station is a versatile device with several advantages. It can be used for refuelling any vehicle, and uses hydraulics technology and carbon composite pressure vessels. This compression technology is mature and serially produced, allowing for low cost, high robustness, and low energy consumption.
Bladder accumulators are designed to reduce the noise generated by hydraulic pumps and maintain pressure on hydraulic systems. They also help compensate pressure deflections caused by temperature change. They are among the most common hydro-pneumatic accumulators. Several companies manufacture and supply bladder accumulator stations for various applications.
Bladder accumulators are the most common and widely used hydro-pneumatic accumulators. The bladder accumulator is filled with nitrogen and fits into a welded pressure vessel. The bladder accumulator's gas volume can vary from 1 pint to 15 gallons. When the pressure drops, the gas expands and fills the bladder.
