Inlet pulse accumulator

Overview

Inlet pulse accumulator

When installed on the suction side, an IPA reduces positive and negative spikes when inlet conditions vary. This results in quieter operation and maximised hose life.

Features and benefits

  • Reduces positive and negative peaks when inlet conditions vary
  • Eliminates up to 90 % of the pump inlet pulsation
  • Provides quieter operation and maximises hose life
  • Low maintenance set-up, suitable for any Bredel and APEX pump with hose size from 25 mm (1”) to 100 mm (4”)
  • Safe handling
