Pulsation dampers for hygienic applications.

The FG/TD series of pulsation dampers are designed to provide pulsation free product flows in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical and allied industries. The design is based on a transfer fluid contained between a nitrogen pre-charged upper bladder and a lower process fluid bladder. Pulsating flow in the process line impacts on the lower bladder and is transmitted through the transfer fluid to the upper bladder where it is absorbed by the gas and damping takes place. To obviate risk of product contamination in the event of a bladder rupture, the transfer fluid is selected for compatibility with the pumped media. Bladders are produced in a variety of material options including nitrile, EPDX and Viton as well as a number of food grade rubbers for volumes from 0.1 to 15 l. Other options include heating jackets, mounting brackets and lower bladder rupture detector. The dampers are manufactured in 316 stainless steel without crevices or dead areas. Process liquid chambers available in a variety of polish finishes to match individual user requirements. The pulsation dampers have been tested and approved for in-place cleanability by Campden and Chorleywood Food Research Association in accordance with the test proceedure developed by the European Hygienic Equipment Design Group (1992).
