THM – TS – KA & KAA – Piston Accumulator

Maximize your system's energy efficiency and safeguard your heavy machinery with the THM TS KA & KAA Series Piston Accumulators. Engineered to store massive quantities of hydraulic energy in a highly compact, hydropneumatic form, these accumulators utilize a precision-machined, sliding rigid piston to seamlessly separate the nitrogen gas charge from your operational fluid. Capable of handling extreme working pressures up to 375 bar and offering a massive volume range from a nimble 0.5 liters up to a colossal 500 liters, the KA & KAA Series provides unparalleled fluid power storage. By drastically reducing the required pump size and installed electrical power, these piston accumulators deliver the high-flow leakage compensation, severe shock absorption, and instantaneous response times required to dominate the heavy civil, road construction, and industrial manufacturing sectors.

Core Technical Specifications

  • Component Architecture: Hydropneumatic Piston Accumulator
  • Model Series: THM TS KA & KAA
  • Operating Pressure Ratings: 250 Bar & 375 Bar configurations
  • Volume Capacity Range: 0.5 Litres up to 500 Litres
  • Operating Principle: Sliding rigid piston separating nitrogen gas and hydraulic liquid

Key Features & Engineering Advantages

  • Superior Piston Architecture: Unlike traditional bladder designs, the rigid piston allows for an exceptionally high compression ratio and virtually eliminates gas permeation into the fluid. This ensures a significantly longer service life and the ability to safely process extremely high oil flow rates.
  • Ultimate System Optimization: By storing high-pressure fluid during low-demand cycles and releasing it instantly during peak demand, these accumulators allow engineers to drastically downsize their main hydraulic pumps and electrical motors, boosting overall energy efficiency.
  • Advanced Monitoring & Mounting: The rigid piston design allows for precise electronic monitoring of both pressure and physical piston position. Furthermore, unlike bladder accumulators, the KA & KAA Series can be safely mounted horizontally without risking seal damage, maximizing your spatial design freedom.
  • Fail-Safe Reliability: Engineered for maximum job site safety. In the rare event of a seal failure, gas loss is gradual rather than catastrophic, and the rigid design allows for the total, 100% discharge of stored fluid when required.
  • Customizable Scalability: Available with a wide array of specialized sealing solutions to accommodate extreme temperatures, corrosive fluids, and high-speed cycling. The external dimensions (diameter and length) can be optimized to perfectly match your specific manifold and chassis constraints.

Ideal Industry Applications:-

The massive 500-liter capacity, horizontal mounting capability, and high flow rates make the KA & KAA Series the ultimate energy storage solution for:

  • Large-Scale Industrial Manufacturing: Providing the massive, instantaneous fluid volume required for the rapid advance and heavy clamping cycles of multi-stage metal-forming presses, die-casting machines, and plastic injection molding equipment.
  • Heavy Civil & Road Machinery: Serving as the primary shock absorption and pulsation dampening system on massive concrete pump trucks, heavy road milling machines, and automated tunneling equipment.
  • Extreme Earthmoving Equipment: Delivering critical leakage compensation and emergency backup power for the steering and braking circuits on massive mining trucks and high-capacity wheel loaders.
  • Heavy-Duty Material Handling: Stabilizing pressure and flow during the extreme, sudden load shifts experienced by high-tonnage industrial cranes, marine winches, and offshore drilling rigs.

Why Choose the THM TS KA & KAA Series?

  • Massive Power Reserves: With capacities up to 500 Litres, you have the exact hydraulic energy required for the world's largest automated machinery.
  • Flexible Installation: Horizontal mounting and customizable dimensions solve your most difficult spatial engineering challenges.
  • Built for the Extremes: High compression ratios, low permeation, and gradual-failure safety ensure your operations run continuously without catastrophic downtime.
