2 Equipment and safety
devices
The equipment, installation and operation of
hydraulic accumulators are subject to different
regulations in different countries.
In the Federal Republic of Germany, for
example, they are regulated by the "Industrial
Safety Regulation" (BetrSichV) or EN 14359.
This stipulates the following minimum
equipment:
– Shut-off device
– Device which protects against excessive
pressure (must be type-tested, either using a
prototype or through individual expert
assessment)
– Pressure release device between the
hydraulic accumulator and the shut-off
device
– Pressure measurement device marked with
the maximum permitted operating pressure
– Connection point for a test pressure gauge
The following can also be fitted:
– Safety device for excess temperature
– Electro-magnetic operated pressure release
valve
For further safety information and relevant
equipment (accessories), please refer to the
following brochures:

NOTICE
Before mounting permanently attached
adapters on the gas side of a piston
accumulator, the hex screw (210) and the
seal ring (200) must be removed, see fold-out
pages.

3. Transport and storage

Transport
The transport of gas-filled hydraulic
accumulators must be carried out with the
utmost care and in compliance with all relevant
transport safety regulations (e.g. on public
roads, dangerous goods regulations, etc).
Only appropriate load carrying equipment may
be used for transport and handling:
Hemp rope or transport strapping, transport
caps or magnets for rounded objects.
NOTICE
Do not use chains.
Do not use steel cables.
DANGER
Any damaged piston accumulator must not be
put into operation.
Storage
The hydraulic accumulator can be stored in any
position. To prevent dirt from entering the
hydraulic accumulator, it must be ensured that
the hydraulic connections are sealed off.
When supplied, piston accumulators are
suitable for short-term storage. If the storage
conditions are dry, cool and protected from
direct sunlight, this period can be extended to
up to 6 months.
For longer storage periods, the hydraulic
accumulator must be provided with a long-term
preservative.
