Acceptance report, Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU TÜV Technische Überwachung Hessen GmbH Explanation Roth bladder accumulator = Roth pressure equipment Translation If sold to a country in the EEA, this operating instruction must be translated into the language of the country in which the machine is to be used.
Designated application Overview of standard Roth pressure equipment The pressure equipment essentially consist of the following components: 1. Accumulator shell 2. Gas bladder 3. Valve on gas side 4. Valve on oil side Figure 1-1 Overview of standard Roth pressure equipment...
Notes on designated application The Roth bladder accumulator (Roth pressure equipment) was manufactured exclusively for use as an industrial and commercial component designed for acceptance and delivery of pressurised hydraulic fluids in hydraulic systems. Any use of the pressure equipment other than or beyond as described above or any conversion by the operator or others shall be regarded as contrary to designated use, unless by prior written agreement of the manufacturer.
Function General functional description Roth pressure equipments are cylindrical pressure vessels with a separating element between gas and fluid volumes (see Fig. 1-1). They are used in hydraulic systems among others for energy accumulator.If the fluid pressure rises above the gas filling pressure, hydraulic energy is stored in fluid form. This may be utilised for work steps when the fluid pressure falls below the pressure of the compressed gas.
2.2.1 Isochore behavior of N2 Determining or controlling the pre-filling pressure (P ) at different ambient temperatures General Unless otherwise specified, the given P refers to room temperatures of + 20°C. Should the actual ambient temperature be different at the time of filling or checking P , the diagram may be used to find the pressure corresponding to that temperature when filling or checking.
Safety Notes / Explanations Operating instruction, mandatory: marked with a “book”. Warnings: marked with a warning triangle “danger”. Explosion: marked with a warning triangle “explosion”. Notes: marked with a “hand”. Limitations: Marked with a “stop“ symbol. The vessel filled with N2 already, as given on the pressure equipment nameplate. Apply the separately included warning sign (scope of delivery) to the pressure equipment after final assembly/final coating.
Safety systems The safety systems may be included in the delivery (see delivery papers) or constitute part of the customer installation. They will always be required and should be tested for effectiveness prior to commissioning. Safety precautions Safety-related measures that should be observed include: •...

Also ensure that local regulation on • the safety of staff (accident regulations) • the safety of working material (protective equipment and maintenance) • product disposal (waste disposal laws) • material disposal (waste disposal laws) • cleaning (cleaning agents and disposal) •...
Dangers General hazard notes Operations must remain within the maximum and minimum limits specified on the nameplate and in the technical documentation. The pressure equipment must be installed ensuring that operating staff will not be endangered by escaping operating materials should parts of the safety system trigger. Structural modifications Structural modifications to the pressure equipment are prohibited.
Installation Scope of delivery The supplied pressure equipment / components include(s) technical documentation with operating instructions, drawings and the declaration of conformity (acceptance report by the notified body in case of individual acceptance tests). Delivery Incoming inspection: • Check completeness as per the delivery note! In case of damages: •...
The operator of the system must be on receipt of the pressure equipment assume responsibility for storage in accordance with these instructions. Lengthy periods in transport or storage whilst packaged should be avoided. Assembly / Commissioning Setup / Installation The assembly if the pressure equipment is to be carried out by qualified staff and must be specially trained for this kind of work.
Repeated inspection §16 of the Occupational Safety Ordinance sets the schedule for routine testing (pay attention to the according national directives of the set-up country, see Chapter 3.5). Roth Hydraulics GmbH recommends the following periods: • External tests every 2 years •...
Emergencies This pressure equipment is a passive system, without own drives. The stored energy will be charged or discharged by the connected active system of the operator. Emergency measures such as the operation of Emergency-Off systems or fast pressure relief action should therefore preferably be defined and documented in the work instructions of the operator.
