Description
Surge Vessels
Bladder Surge Vessels
No dissolution of air into water – Liquid, and gas are separated by a bladder
• Butyl rubber bladder approved for drinking water
• No electricity required – No permanent regulation system
• Self-regulation system – No need for complex controls – cuts operating costs
• Portable compressor will be sufficient to maintain pre-charge pressure in case of necessity
• No corrosion of vessel interior as water is NOT in contact with the vessel.
• Flexible selection of location for the vessel
• Reliable Hydro-pneumatic solution
• Low maintenance
Compressor Vessels
Dissolution of air into water
• Dissolved air will show up elsewhere in the system
• Prone to corrosion due to air-water interface
• Complicated System of Controls that must all function
no Compressor
no Measuring equipment
no Alarm systems
no Control panel
no Air receiver
• Highly restricted location
• Need for electricity
• Backup generator
• Constant maintenance
• Oil injection to ensure compressor efficiency – contact with drinkable water.
