| The shell of this PipeHugger has been machined from a solid billet to cope with high pressures - up to 30,000psi (2000 bar) depending on the variant. The machining involved makes this type of PipeHugger significantly more expensive than it's lower pressure welded construction counterpart. The membrane, which can be made of any of 28 different elastomer compounds, is held in place by a simple tamper-proof segmental lock ring, making the unit fully reservicable. |

If you have a pipeline or pump user problem which requires pulsation analysis, diagnostics, or prediction by software:
The definitions of many problems can be found at Liquid-Dynamics.com. Or send your problem to LiquidDynamics.net.
Liquid Dynamics provides pipeline and pump user problem analysis, diagnostics, and prediction by software. For water hammer and shock solutions pulsation dampening and shock alleviating devices can be obtained from our associate websites PulseGuard and ShockGuard. |
For Hardware see our associate websites: |
