Epe italiana is the Italian Company worlwide leader in the production of hydropneumatic accumulators for industrial and mobile applications. With 45 years’ experience in this field, it can offer a wide range of products that meet the strictest international standards.
[pdf] For optimal efficiency, hydraulic systems typically operate with pressure ratios between 2:1 and 3:1, though specific applications may require different ratios.
[pdf] The safety block allows for isolation of the accumulator for maintenance or system testing, and will function as an emergency shut-off device or pressure relief valve to protect the hydraulic system from over-pressurization or system failure.
[pdf] Some common types include bladder accumulators, piston accumulators, and diaphragm accumulators. Each type has its own advantages and limitations, depending on factors such as the system’s operating pressure range, storage capacity, and fluid compatibility.
[pdf] The pump operates on a simple yet effective principle: an electric DC motor drives a hydraulic pump that pressurizes brake fluid and stores it in an accumulator chamber.
[pdf] Hydraulic accumulators have long been used in hydraulic circuits. Applications vary from keeping the pressure within a circuit branch to saving load energy. Among these applications, storing and releasing energy has gained attention in recent years due to the need for efficient circuits.
