Bladders surge vessel
Inside some metal sheet tanks, it is necessary to separate the liquid from the interior wall of the tank with a bladder surge vessel. This bladder surge vessel acts as a shock wave dampener and also to simplify the method of regulation.
The bladder is not only used as a simple separation and also as an anti ramming device.
- First case : the pressure is injected into the membrane and the tank is filled with the liquid. Its volume increases as the liquid flows out of the tank.
- Second case : the pressure is injected into the tank and the membrane is filled with the liquid
It can be applied to squeeze a substance or extract a juice.
Characteristics depend on the environment. Bladders can be made from elastomer, reinforced plastomer, food grade material or not.
