Products / Parker / Cylinders and Actuators / Bladder Accumulator - High Pressure, Oil & Gas (O&G Series)
Designed for high pressure hydraulic systems, the O&G bladder accumulator has been developed for the hazardous environments encountered within the Oil & Gas Industry and other aggressive environments. Carbon and stainless steel (up to 760 bar).
The O&G bladder accumulator is specially
designed and developed for the hazardous environments encountered
within the Oil and Gas industry however it is also ideally suited
for other highly demanding markets. They meet a wide range of
approvals and are tailor made to meet your requirements (e.g.
special coatings, IP-class and ATEX/Ex approvals).
Utilizing comprehensive tools and resources including an
applications database, CAD/CAM, finite element analysis, reliability
studies and simulation we have optimized the design and performance
of the accumulator. Parker Olaer bladder accumulators are suitable
for use in more than 35 countries (all hydraulic accumulators for
Europe are CE marked) and they can meet an extensive range of
international and industry approvals.
Rigorous product testing and continuous product development help to
ensure our hydraulic accumulators operate at optimum efficiency and
can perform in the most demanding environments. Parker accumulator
accessories such as Safety Blocks, Burst Discs and Permanent
Charging Sets, can aid the safe installation and operation of the
accumulators in any hydraulic system.
Parker Olaer have developed very sophisticated simulation software
to optimize sizing recommendations for hydraulic accumulators. You
can download the accumulator sizing software from the Product
Support tab.

Function:
Hydraulic accumulators are an essential component for the optimum
operation of a hydraulic circuit. The accumulator enables:
• Energy Storage: Saves energy without loss and redistributes when
required therefore reducing installed power.
• Pressure Compensation: Absorbs pressure spikes from pumps or other
components to control pressure and flow rates in the hydraulic
circuit.
• Volume Control: Absorbs fluid volume variations induced by
temperature changes in a closed hydraulic circuit and maintains a
rated pressure.
• Emergency Energy Storage: In case of failure of the main energy
source, these accumulators can provide sufficient energy to complete
an operation or to realize a full hydraulic cycle.
• Hydraulic Spring/Shock Absorber: A bladder accumulator can act as
a gas spring suppressing shocks and vibrations in hydraulic systems
of lifting vehicles (e.g. Forklift trucks) and maintains real
suspension of the load on a gas spring.
