- (WS) Water Service Accumulators
For high water content applications and when internal corrosion protection is necessary, these units have Phenolic coated interiors and two-coat, zinc-epoxy painted exteriors. The units contain a mix of electroless-nickel plated and stainless steel components, designed for in-plant use. - (PS) Water & Chemical Service Accumulators
Our PS units have phenolic-coated interiors for corrosion protection and primed exteriors with stainless steel components. Used primarily for high water content applications when stainless steel parts are necessary. - (NP) Nickel Plated Accumulators
Both the interior and exterior of these units are electroless-nickel plated, perfect for chemical and harsh environment applications. Stainless steel components. - (XS) Extreme Service Accumulators
These accumulators were created specifically for offshore drilling applications. These units have been designed with maximum corrosion protection, high-pressure fittings, low temperature components and improved external sealing. Thousands of these units are currently being operated subsea at various depths. - (AS) All Stainless Accumulators
Our All Stainless accumulators are designed to provide maximum resistance to corrosion and medium migration. These accumulators are perfect for the harshest environments and certification to NSF Std 14159-3 by NSF International is available. They contain all 304/316-series stainless steel components and shell, with optional white neoprene bladders and seals to allow the end user to visually ensure a complete purge of all substances for health inspections and to avoid cross-contamination.
