Description

The charging and gauging assembly consists of 3 mt. charging hose with standard nitrogen nipples, body incorporating gas valve connection, bleed valve and check valve. These kits are packed in a plastic storage case. Gauge is diameter 63 mm. diam. type pressure gauges with 0÷250 bar graduation. The following are recommended for use on all piston ac- cumulators (with standard filling valve type VM) and on all welded dia- phragm accumulators.
It is used for the periodic check of accumulator pre-charge and for the inflation of accumulators after the maintenance or it is used for the change of pre-charge value. For the inflation, it is necessary a connection to a bottle filled with industrial dry nitrogen with a pressure higher than the pre-charge value required, provided with pressure reducer (manda- tory, for safety reasons, during the inflation of accumulators with PS < 210 bar).
Furthermore, the use of a pressure reducer makes easier the slow and graduated inflow of nitrogen on the bladder, thus avoiding the possibility of damaging the bladder itself.
NOTE: These assemblies are not recommended for continuous monito- ring of gas pre-charge. For continuous monitoring, see Gas Adapters at Section 8.3
