| | Jun 15, 2011 — BellowsTech, LLC has published a new product page focused on metal bellows accumulators. Used to store the energy of a liquid or gas, bellows accumulators using edge welded bellows can be manufactured in smaller sizes with added stroke length capability. Edge welded bellows are comprised of nested rippled diaphragms, so they are capable of completely compressing onto themselves. Edge welded bellows can also expand up to twenty-five percent of their free length. The bellows assembly can be pressurized both internally and externally.
With a variety of material options including 316L stainless steel, Inconel, Hastelloy, and Titanium, BellowsTech can manufacture bellows accumulators for a variety of liquids and gases. With standard diaphragm sizes of less than half an inch to over two feet in diameter, BellowsTech can manufacture a bellows to almost any customer specification.
BellowsTech uses in-house machining to manufacture tools and dies for quality control and cost effectiveness. Special guides and over-travel stops can be added to the bellows assembly to protect against pressure transients. Through BellowsTech’s value added services, external housings can also be installed to make the accumulator a complete assembly.
Design of the accumulator assembly can be completed through an online design form or a downloadable PDF form.
