A piston accumulator consists of a fluid section and a gas section with the piston acting as a gas-proof screen. The gas section is precharged with dry nitrogen gas. Auxiliary gas bottles are frequently used with piston accumulators to provide the required gas volume. Piston Accumulators are a cost effective option for numerous functions involving energy storage, and sometimes shock absorption in a hydraulic or fluid system. They are well suited for applications needing: High Pressure Ratios, Large Volumes of Oil, High Fluid flow rates, Volume monitoring by way of piston position sensor or switch systems.
