SurgeTek™ RD-Series Pipeline Water Hammer Arrestors

CoorsTek engineers greatly understand the causes of water hammer conditions and how to effectively, efficiently, and reliably mitigate this problem to extend the life of valves, fittings, meters, control instruments, and gauges.

Water Hammer occurs when moving fluid reverses due to a quick closing valve or sudden pump shutdown syndrome. The fluid is forced to stop forward motion and reverse direction – creating a powerful and destructive wave within your piping system.

CoorsTek combined two widely excepted dampener technologies, spherical and appendage, into one extremely capable Pulsation Arrestor to mitigating fluid pound for the pipeline and refinery industries. This proven technology:

• Attenuates water hammer, fl uid surge to manageable levels
• Minimizes pressure drops
• Certified to ASME U stamp
