The ELM 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 – Hydraulic Spring/Shock Absorber: A membrane 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. – 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 (example-brake or steering system) – 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.
