An accumulator safety valve is a device that prevents compressed air from entering a hydraulic system

An accumulator safety valve is a device that prevents compressed air from entering a hydraulic system and can be used in several applications. This valve is a legal requirement in most countries and should be fitted to the accumulator when it is in use. The valve has several benefits, including safety shut-off, block, and discharge functions. It is also highly versatile, designed to save space, and allows for maximum output.

Before disassembling an accumulator, you must stop it. You should also release the circuit pressure and discharge the nitrogen gas. Make sure that you are working in a place with good ventilation, as the nitrogen gas can be very powerful. During the disassembly process, check the parts for any abnormalities, and make sure that the screws are in the right shape.

The discharge line of the safety valve should end in a risk-free manner. You must also ensure that there is no accumulation of fluids in the discharge system. You can check the AD2000 data sheet for more information on the maximum allowable flow. As a rule, the maximum flow rate is 10% higher than the counterpressure set by the safety valve.

Accumulator safety valves are an important part of hydraulic circuits. They should be installed in systems that do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the valve. In addition, accumulators should be protected from corrosion by the system's environment. Moreover, high levels of nitrogen gas may damage an accumulator, and high temperatures may damage threads or accumulator seals.
