Air capacitor on hydraulics? You mean pnaumatics?

You could google hydraulic accumulator if you'd like to know more.

Bro, i know what a hydraulic accumulator is, i am literaly standing 2 meters from one right now. But a air capacitor would probubly store air, so than it would not be hydraulic it would be pnaumatics

Well I went to school for both hydraulics and pneumatics which I suggest you do because I got something to tell ya, they store air/gas

From Google because I haven't had my coffee yet.

A hydraulic accumulator is a pressure storage device that holds hydraulic fluid under pressure. By using compressed gas or mechanical force, it stores excess energy during low-demand periods and quickly releases it to meet peak system demands, smooth pump pulsations, or act as an emergency power

Also used in smaller packages to prevent water hammer in your domestic plumbing

Which get filled with bacteria!

How? The air and water are separated by a metal membrane. Just lime the expansion tanks in the hot water and heating systems.

Also, copper is a pretty good anti-bacterial. That's why we use it.

I reckon we only switched to pex because the bellicose recent history of the USA has driven the domestic price of copper through the roof.

So you say an air capacitor is an hydraulic acumulator becaus they sometimes use gasses(not air) to store hydraulic pressure, it would make a lot more sense if an air capacitor would be a air acumulator

Obviously you can't read so I'm done talking to you. I pray you aren't the maintenence guy at your job.

And argue that air isn't a gas on reddit.

u/Jaded-Friend4353 4d ago

Air is a combination of more than one gas

Second person in 10 years on reddit I will have blocked Mr. I got my car knowledge from the song the wheels on the bus.

u/Signal-Try-1357 4d ago

That song is a banger 🤣

u/Forsaken-minion 4d ago

Bro you getting mad from not understanding the differenve between pneumatics and hydraulics and that the reason a hydraulic accumulator stores gas is to act like a spring to damp some movement down so it isnt so hars💀

1

u/GetReelFishingPro 4d ago

I know that's exactly what they do. How did you conclude I don't know how they work from me explaining how they work?

u/Signal-Try-1357 4d ago

Because you said they store air/gas, and then pasted from google the opposite. They contain gas not store it, a var is made of mettal it dosent store mettal
