BK-05-1 : SFP Accumulator Base Bracket for 2.5 to 15 Gallon Saddle, 5000psi Bladder Accumulator

Recommended bladder accumulator installation is in vertical position with fluid port at the bottom for optimum performance. Horizontally mounting a bladder accumulator may result in poor performance due to trapped fluid and service life of the bladder reduced due to excessive wear when rubbing against the shell. Accumulators subjected to external forces may also have detrimental effect on performance and life expectancy. Servi Fluid Power recommends the use of mounting clamps and brackets to ensure rigid and safe installation of the accumulator in the hydraulic system. Material used for clamps and brackets are typically hot or cold rolled galvanized steel that offer exceptional strength and durability. A rubber cushioning sleeve on the clamp and a rubber grommet on the bracket provide isolation from system vibrations. We strongly recommend using Servi Fluid Power mounting accessories to install accumulators to ensure safe and secure installation. They are designed to carry the weight of the accumulator as well as counteract any forces or vibrations transmitted from the hydraulic lines. Recommended installation is vertical with hydraulic port down.
