Hammer Attenuators from ShockGuard

Hammer Attenuators

Water hammer attenuators attenuate bang from reverse flow when pumping system stops, by being placed immediately after the delivery outlet.

Water hammer attenuators arrest the flow gently preventing water hammer; it is the increase in time for deceleration that counts.

Water hammer attenuators suppress the surges from centrifugal fast motor spin-up. when a loop back to source, with metered restriction was not provided.

Water hammer attenuators also used for volume compensation with temperature change, by functioning as an accumulator.

Water hammer attenuators for attenuating surges in pipes with surging liquids, are needed to suppress a shock.

Water hammer attenuators for smoothing the shock when a pump starts; these shock attenuators are installed down stream of discharge check valve.

Water hammer attenuators dampen the system overpressure from a fast start-up; required when there is no flow back bypass to suction.

Water hammer attenuators stop the shock from quick valve closure and isloator slam; and work best, when mounted as close to the isolating valve as possible.

Hammer Attenuator

Water hammer attenuators arresting the flow gradually, so preventing water hammer, by prolonging the period of slow down.

Water hammer attenuators suppresses the shock on fast motor spin-up of centrifugals, when a metered resistance, looping back to inlet, has not been provided.

Water hammer attenuators are used for compensating volume on temperature variations, giving excess volume somewhere to go without a large pressure increase.

Water hammer attenuators attenuates a shock in a pipe having liquids that are surging, by stabilizing the mass oscillation with their cushioning.

Water hammer attenuators for leveling the shock when pumps are started; this shock attenuator is piped in, just after of the discharge check valve.

Water hammer attenuators dampening system overpressure with instant start-up, is by substituting for a flow back bypass going to source of supply.

Water hammer attenuators stopping shocks from quick valve closure, isloator slam, is most efficient, when positioned adjacent the isolation valve.
