Olaer Vgu

The control set VGU is used to test and adjust the precharge pressure of bladder, piston, and diaphragm accumulators. It connects to the gas valve of the accumulator and to a nitrogen vessel. It allows you to check, reduce, or raise the precharge pressure as needed. The complete control set includes the control unit, charging hose, adapters for different gas valve connections, and tools. Proper safety procedures must be followed when using inert gas like nitrogen to fill or adjust pressures.

Control Set
VGU

Description
The control set VGU is used for testing and adjusting of the precharge
pressure
of bladder-, piston-, and diaphragm accumulators. The equipment fits on all
OLAER-accumulators and such with equivalent connection situation, no
matter whether 5/8 , 7/8 (used mainly in Germany) VG 8 or for all
commercial accumulators with filling connection M28 x 1,5. It is screwed on
the gas valve of the accumulator and connected with the attached hose to a
commercial nitrogen vessel. If the maximum allowable operating pressure of
the accumulator is lower than the maximum allowable operating pressure of
the nitrogen vessel, a pressure-reducing valve with gas relief valve must be
inserted.

With the control set you can


check
reduce
raise
the precharge pressure.
The union nut with M 28 x 1,5 at the control set is usable for examining our
diaphragm accumulators and all other gas valves with same connecting
thread.
For bladder- and piston accumulators additionally the appropriate adapter is to
be used. Meaningfully this is set first on the gas valve and then the control set
is to put on. The spindle in the control set is to be turned only so far clockwise
until the manometer indicates a pressure. Then the gas valve is opened
enough.

The adjusting pressure of the gas relief valve may not be higher than the
maximum allowable operating pressure of the accumulator.
The complete control set consists of:

Check or reduce of gas pressure


In this case the tube does not need to be connected. The equipment has a
check valve which prevents that gas can leak out of the tube connection.

- Control set for connection M28 x 1,5 with inside hexagonal


- Charging hose, length estimated 2,5 m
- Adapter for gas valve
7/8 14 UNF
5/8 18 UNF
0,305 32 NFT (VG 8)
- socket wrench
- plastic protection suitcase

Increase of the gas pressure


To increase the gas pressure sufficiently nitrogen bottles with appropriate
pressure have to be available. If this is not the case, the desired higher
pressure can be brought in by a nitrogen charger.

Handling
Before each examination of change of the gas filling pressure the accumulator
is to be relieved on the liquid side. To each control set detailed operating
instructions in three languages (German, English, French) is attached.

The relevant safety regulations are to be considered. The used nitrogen should
have at least a purity of 99,8 % . The commercial nitrogen generally fulfills
these conditions.
Attention!!!
For filling use only inert gases, never oxygen or air!
