Pulsation dampers stabilize the flow and pressure in circuits with volumetric or dosing pumps. They are used in a wide range of applications.
A pulsation damper is a device used in fluid systems to reduce pressure fluctuations or pulsations caused by reciprocating pumps, compressors, or other pulsating flow sources. It is designed to absorb or dampen the rapid pressure fluctuations, providing a more stable and uniform flow.
Eldex Optos Series pumps are single-piston pumps, so there is some pressure fluctuation as the pump transitions from the pump part of the piston stroke to the refill part. A pulsation damper/pressure transducer can control this fluctuation. The system should operate against at least 500 psi to maximize the damper’s efficiency.
