Safety Blocks
Parker carbon and stainless steel safety blocks include features to make the installation, operation and maintenance of hydraulic accumulators convenient and safe. For example, the safety block can be used to isolate or shut down the accumulator if there's a leak, pressure spike in the system or for general maintenance. The bleed facility allows the accumulator to be conveniently drained and the integrated hydraulic relief valve minimises overpressurisation.
The safety blocks have been designed to group together in a single compact unit with all the components necessary for the correct operation of a hydraulic system equipped with hydropneumatic accumulators.
The basic block consists of :
• Isolating valve to isolate the accumulator from the
circuit for all the blocks except from model DI 10
where it also ensures the decompression function.
• A drain valve for decompressing the accumulator for
all models (except DI 10)
• A pressure relief valve EC with poppet calibrated
generally to the maximum service pressure of the
accumulator (under no circumstances must this
appliance be used to protect the hydraulic pump)
• Pressure tapping port (M)
For more information please download the Accumulator Catalogue or contact your local Parker Sales Company. Many of our accessories are also detailed in our product brochures.
Some products within this series were previously branded as Olaer and Fawcett Christie Hydraulics.
