Application Diversity
APPLICATIONS
Hydril Pulsation Dampeners are used worldwide in a variety of applications to reduce the damaging effects of fluid flow pulsations in suction, discharge and hydraulic flow system lines. All Hydril Pulsation Dampeners adhere to worldwide quality standards and are certified in the following: ISO 9001, Quality management systems API Specification Q1, Specification for Quality Programs ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Other certifications available include Det Norske Veritas (DNV), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Lloyds of London and CE.
All flowing media possess kinetic energy, which when abruptly stopped, is transformed into pressure energy, often creating surges dangerously greater than the rated line pressure. This "water hammer" phenomenon frequently occurs with quick-acting valve closures and with sudden pump shutdowns or start-ups. Forces can be generated that are large enough to rupture piping and
connections or damage equipment and instrumentation. These dangerous surges occur in high speed fueling of aircraft, truck and tank car loading, descaling and hydraulic systems. The general rule for locating a surge absorber is simple: it should be placed upstream and as close to the surge source as possible.
Discharge pulsations are responsible for mechanical vibrations and fatigue failures of pump components such as valves, fluid cylinders, system instrumentation, pipe, and fittings. A Hydril PD mounted close to the discharge side will significantly moderate these pulsations to acceptable levels, greatly prolonging the life of the system.
ENERGY STORAGE
SUCTION STABILIZER
When a hydraulic system experiences pump or electrical power failure, Without suction stabilization, pumps cannot function smoothly or efficiently. The cylinders can be starved and internal cavitation can result, as well as, the premature wear and failure of pump parts such as valve seats, seals, springs, plungers, and packing. A Hydril suction stabilizer mounted close to the inlet of a pump reduces acceleration head and insures an even and complete filing of each cylinder. The charged area of the suction stabilizer supplies the necessary force to accelerate the fluid intake as the pump plungers begin each stroke. a Hydril accumulator is ideal for supplying hydraulic fluid over short intervals for equipment such as rotating machinery and lube oil systems. Sight glass models are available with position indicator systems to verify precharge and fluid level, reducing maintenance time.

BACK SURGE
for pumps, surge absorbers on water When pumping uphill, over elevation changes, or vertically in tall buildings, a pump shut-down causes the fluid to reverse directions and slam into the pump check valve. Installation of a Hydril accumulator near the check valve absorbs this energy. systems and energy storage for lube oil systems.
TRANSFER BARRIER
When the interaction of fluids is essential to the operation of a system, and they cannot be mixed together, the Hydril accumulator can be used to isolate the fluids and monitor the interaction.
Newark, New Jersey and Dallas-Fort Worth are just a few of the airport locations using Hydril accumulators.
LEAKAGE COMPENSATOR
In systems where leakage is critical to its function, a Hydril accumulator provides a ready reservoir of fluid. An example would be lube oil systems for turbines where a ready supply of fluid during shut-down is essential to protect the turbines from damage.
Hydril pulsation dampeners and suction stabilizers are serving on oilfield drilling mud pumps worldwide.

K-Series Dampeners
K-SERIES
Lifting Eye and Protective Cover Stainless Steel Pressure Gauge Charging Valve Cover Plate
Diaphragm Stabilizer
10 Diaphragm Elastomer Materials Available Diaphragm Insert (Intergral to the Diaphragm Replaceable Bottom Plates
Introduced over 50 years ago to solve pulsation problems with oilfield reciprocating mud pumps, the K-Series accumulator has built an unmatched reputation for dependability and durability. A stabilizer disk enhances reliability by precluding the trapping of fluids in folds of the diaphragm, which increases diaphragm life and predictability. Accumulators are available in capacities of 10, 20 and 80 gallons and pressures to 7,500 psi for a variety of large scale pulsation and surge control applications such as airport fueling systems, tank truck and marine loading racks, pipeline slurries, fire water systems and sewage lines. The K-Series accumulators feature a replaceable bottom plate, desirable for abrasive slurries such as coal and mud. All K-Series bottom plates are field replaceable, eliminating costly shop repairs and down time. A large cover plate allows fast diaphragm replacement without removing the body from a line. The pressure gauge and charge valve are protected from damage by a heavy duty cover which also serves as a lifting device. All K-Series accumulators are pressure vessels which are ASME code stamped. During periods of minimum pressure, the gas expands, forcing liquid from the accumulator into the system. During periods of peak system pressure, the nitrogen gas is compressed, absorbing energy in the system.

pressures to 10,000 psi. An isolated body cavity confines the fluid within the inert diaphragm. The only wetted metal part is the replaceable bottom plate. Customized bottom connections are available in
carbon steel, 316 stainless steel, or teflon-coated carbon steel. (Other materials available by special order.)
The IP design is especially suited for corrosive service applications such as waste disposal, salt water injection, acids, caustic products, and other corrosive and toxic fluids.
The IP design is simplicity itself, compact in size, easy to handle and install and generally require no external bracing or supports. The stainless steel charge valve is protected by a sturdy lifting eye cover, preventing inadvertent damage and leakage. All IP-Series accumulators are pressure vessels which are ASME code stamped.
HYDRIL
Reactive R-PASAFE dampeners utilize the liquid volume within the unit to dampen pulsations. These units are available for both discharge and suction applications. They are truly maintenance free because they use no elastomers and require no nitrogen precharge or adjustment. Ideal for high temperature or chemical applications that would cause compatibility problems with elastomers Designed to maintain a constant pulsation level across the pumps entire operating pressure range. No adjustments are necessary when the pump discharge pressure is increased or decreased

Designed for use with all 2 1/2 and 5 gallon IP dampeners Fast, safe, and efficient diaphragm replacements
The by-pass check valve is desirable on most surge absorber applications. This valve provides an unobstructed opening for the fluid when flowing into the surge absorber and a restricted opening when flowing out. The check valve prevents back-surge of the trapped fluid, releasing the fluid in a slow, controlled manner. The by-pass check valve extends the diaphragm life and improves system efficiency.

K-Series
IP-Series
The unique Hydril diaphragm is designed for long life service. It is molded as a single unit compared to conventional bladders which are spliced using prevulcanized sections. This one-piece design reduces points of stress concentration, greatly extending service life. Both the K and IP-Series diaphragms are molded to the exact dimensions of the vessel's internal cavity. The diaphragm rolls and unrolls inside the body instead of flexing or folding, virtually eliminating stretching fatigue. This full-flexing action, enhanced by the diaphragm stabiliz-
er on the K-Series, provides self cleaning by eliminating dead spots where debris and gas build-up could accumulate. Hydril offers 10 diaphragm materials to provide fluid compatibility for a wide range of applications. Hydril manufactures its own rubber to insure high quality. Hydril has been a leader in high performance rubber for over 20 years. Hydril formulates and mixes its own rubber compounds. A computerized laboratory testing, monitoring, and control system have made Hydril rubber the standard of performance in its field.
Hydril manufactures these elastomer materials for all sizes of K and IP diaphragms.
