HYDRAULIC SNUBBERS......... sevens RARE SWAY STRUT ASSEMBLIES... eo RE-REThe style "AD" Hydraulic Shock Arrestor is a manifold dasign hydraulic component consisting of a high pressure main cylinder, @ flow conirol secon which ‘contains dual stage velocity senstive poppet vaives, and a sping energze reservar. Bee sy i _— ca) AZCoKNENDD APELLEATION Used for the control and protection of piping and ‘equipment subject to shock ( pulse ) loading and seismic (cycic) conditions Its use transfers anyimposed forces on the piping oF equipment directy to the building stucture at the inetant of chock occurrence, while at all other times allowing free unresricted movement trough Its. normal ‘operating range. BASIC OPERATION The piston rod is fies to mave in elthar direction witty no restictions 10 the fluc flow ‘or all piston velocities Up to the activation velocity. At activation velocity the Poppet valve, internal to tne snubber, loses. Closure of the poppet in cither tension or compression greatly reduces the fluid flow through grooves in the poppet at rated design ‘capacity of the unit's termed the * bieed rate”. When the: applied velocity of the unit becomes zaro the poppet valve ‘opens once again, allowing free piston movement. STANDARD DESIGN FEATURES ~ Piping and/or oquipmont movement is controlled by tamperproof dual stage flow control poppels designed wit sel-cleaning orfices, = Furnished as a complete, compact and eficient unt, ready forimmeciate use. = Manifold configuration requirhg no external piping, = Spharical, sel-aligning ball bushings allow for 5° of angular motion or misalignment. Stable premium grade, antiwear hydraulic fluid = Pressutized hydraulic reservoir allows mounting in any ‘patil orientation ~ Virtually no resistance to normal thermal movements, ofthe piping ~ Large restraining forces compared to size. = Functions in restraining tension and compression loads. = Designed for continuous operation up to 200°F with brief tranciente to a maximum of 300°F. = Stroke posttion is measured from 2 machined groove located atthe piston rod wrench fats, ~ Fluid Level in the unit, thereby eliminating estimate of reserve fuid level OPTIONAL DESIGN FEATURES = Remote Reservoir Mounting - The snubbers pressurized reservoir can be emotely mounted for inaccessible locations. “Integral Relief Valve. A non-adjistable valve, whichis factory preset at 193%, or 200% of mated load. = Protective Boot- Installed over piston rod forprotection against corrosive or outdoor environments. Rigid Stud Application- When no thermal growth is antcipated atter lacc-up, an optional poppet vaive, without bleed, can be furnished, Must be erdered with oational integral reliof valve. SIZE RANGE Seven sizes with cyinder bores of 1 %" to8" and with normal load retinge fFem 3000 to 130,000 pounds. All arg mace with iegral pressurized reservors in 6 12° ot 18" strokes, SIZE SELECTION The selection of size depencs on the anticipated force and themmal movement of the protected piping or ‘equipment. It is recommended that the soleded cylinder stfoke be a minimum of the anticipated therma’ movement, pus 20%, FACTORY PRE-SET ‘The units are shipped from the factory complete, tested, reservoir lled to capacity end piston rod preset to ‘mate with pin to pin inetallation dimeneion.
