Surge Arrestors

Surge Arrestors Surge arrestors are designed to control rapid velocity changes which may cause potentially dangerous pressure excursions. One method of accomplishing this is by using a vessel charged with inert gas and connected to the pipeline carrying the liquid. This vessel has the capability to convert the kinetic energy of the moving liquid into stored potential energy when a liquid overpreRead More…
