Reliable diaphragm hydraulic accumulators for industrial and mobile systems

Hydraulic diaphragm accumulators are compact energy-storage devices with a high-tensile steel shell and a flexible diaphragm separating the fluid and gas sections. The gas side is pre-charged with inert nitrogen to an application-specific pressure, enabling rapid response and stable system pressure.

During operation, pressurized fluid enters through the port and compresses the pre-charged gas. When system pressure drops, the compressed gas expands and instantly returns fluid to the circuit, delivering energy for start-up, smoothing pulsations, and improving safety.

FAQ

Techknow Engineering Enterprise combines decades of hydraulic experience with modern engineering to deliver high-quality diaphragm accumulators. Using premium materials and proven designs, our accumulators provide long service life, efficiency, and reliable performance across demanding industrial applications.

Diaphragm accumulators store pressurized fluid to stabilize pressure, absorb shocks, and compensate for leakage. The results are smoother operation, reduced component wear, better energy efficiency, and improved overall system reliability where steady pressure and flow control are required.

  • Mobile hydraulics and construction equipment
  • Industrial machinery with compact space constraints
  • Marine applications and energy storage systems
  • High-cycle environments requiring fast response
  • Solar/renewables and systems needing precise pressure control

A flexible diaphragm separates the gas and fluid sides, providing excellent sealing and contamination resistance. Compared with piston or bladder designs, diaphragm accumulators typically excel in high-frequency cycling and maintain reliable separation under harsh conditions.

Perform routine checks on precharge pressure, inspect for external damage or leaks, verify mounting hardware, and maintain fluid cleanliness. Techknow provides full maintenance guidance to ensure safe, reliable performance over time.

Selection depends on operating pressure, required fluid volume, temperature range, cycling frequency, and available space. Techknow’s technical team will size and specify the correct accumulator for your system requirements.

Quality is built in: diaphragms undergo pressure cycling, burst, and integrity tests. We use certified materials, precision manufacturing, and an ISO-certified quality system with full component traceability.
