mud pump pulsation dampener explosion brands

Mud Pump Pulsation Dampener is usually installed on the discharge line to reduce the fluctuation of pressure and displacement of the drilling mud pump.

Mud Pump Pulsation Dampener is a pneumatic device built into the outflow line of each UUD pump to dampen the pressure fluctuations resulting from the action of the pump. Although presented as a surge tank, this device is really a device that can be tuned to greatly diminish the output pulsations transmitted downstream from the mud pump. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of the pulsation dampener is a function of both output pump pressure and frequency of the pump pulsations.

Diaphragm pump with built-on pulsation dampener is an effective way to eliminate the pressure variations on the pump discharge when a space of the installation is limited.

The user, a company from New Zealand, wanted to eliminate the pump pressure fluctuations, ensuring a gentle flow of the media while avoiding system vibration for transferring CIP chemicals at dairies.

Please note that built-on pulsation dampener provides better dampening due to fully in line construction, which means the pump outlet is at the same time dampener outlet. It’s worth to mention that built-on dampener can be implemented in already existing pumps, just by replacing pump outlet with DTKpulsation dampener.

Pulsation dampeners are made of forged steel rather than cast steel, improving reliability. All high pressure parts are hydrostatically tested. Internal components are changeable with off the shelf consumables.

Suction dampener is a very effective aid for improving suction performance and eliminating fluid pulsations in the suction line, which results in a smoother flow in the discharge line.

The mounting for KB-75 pulsation dampener (1) is a flange with R-39 seal washer. Before installing dampener, thoroughly clean ring groove and ring, and after setting dampener into place, tighten the nut (8) with 950-1265N.m (700-935ft.lbs) torque. Tighten nuts in a criss-cross order.

The discharge pulsation dampener is only allowed to charge nitrogen or air. No inflammable and explosive gases are allowed such as oxygen, hydrogen etc.
