Wilden Surge Dampeners, Diaphragm Pump Accessories - Protect your investment and refine your process.
Wilden® Equalizer® Surge Dampeners for AODD Pumps
Equalizer® Surge Dampeners are engineered to reduce fluid pressure and flow fluctuations that are inherent in air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps, providing a smoother discharge flow. This function is critical in applications that need to minimize vibration and control pipe hammer which protects the piping system as well as downstream instrumentation.
The versatility of air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps makes them ideal for use in applications ranging from those found in mining to chemical processing. However, some fluid-handling applications cannot be completed successfully if pulsation exists in the fluid flow. Wilden's® Equalizer® Surge Dampener SD Series provides the solution.
• Minimize pressure fluctuation
• Prevent water hammer and associated damage
• Self-adjusting to varying system pressures
• Minimize spare parts inventory
• Large solids capacity
• Can be configured to meet ATEX II 2 GD X requirements
Wilden-SD-Equalizer
The Equalizer® Surge Dampener SD Series creates laminar (constant) process flow by reducing or eliminating pump pulsation, which is also critical in retaining pump and piping integrity. SD Equalizers use the same air as the pump to counter the flow rate and discharge-pressure changes within the system. This non-pulsating flow also helps reduce maintenance and repair costs. SD Equalizes also are compliant with ATEX II 2 GD X requirements for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Applications
• Applications requiring a laminar flow or minimize "splashing" - CIP systems, Drum Filling & Package Filling
• Pumping from a mix tank to balance tank
• Applications that have flow meters or other precise in-line instrumentation
• Applications that have quick closing valves
• Discharge piping is not properly secured (PVC/Plastic Piping)
Wilden® Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm Pump Accessories
- Wilden® accessory products add value to your liquid process and expand the application range of your Wilden pumps by augmenting the performance and/or utility of the pump. Use only genuine Wilden accessories to keep your AODD pumps running at peak performance while meeting warranty requirements and expanding their operations and utility.
- Wil-Gard™ - detects and notifies plant personnel when a diaphragm has ruptured to prevent further damage to pump
- Pump Cycle Monitor (PCMI) - counts pump cycles by sensing the presence of the air valve spool
- Drum Pump Kit - enables Wilden 6 mm (1/4”) and 13 mm (1/2”) pumps to adapt directly to drums for cost-effective, efficient liquid transfer
