Snubber Manufacturer

What is a Snubber?

A snubber is a protective device used in pressure and instrumentation systems to dampen sudden pressure surges, pulsations, and shocks. It is commonly installed between a process line and instruments such as pressure gauges, pressure transmitters, or switches. By smoothing out rapid pressure fluctuations, a snubber helps ensure stable readings and protects sensitive instruments from damage.

Snubbers work by restricting the flow of fluid through a porous element, piston, or adjustable orifice. This controlled restriction absorbs pressure spikes while still allowing the average system pressure to reach the instrument. Snubbers are available in different designs such as porous metal disc type, piston type, and adjustable needle type, and are selected based on the type of media and operating conditions.

One of the main advantages of a snubber is improved instrument accuracy and extended service life. By reducing vibration and pressure hammer effects, snubbers prevent needle flutter in gauges and minimize wear on internal components. This results in more reliable pressure measurement and lower maintenance costs in dynamic process environments.

Snubbers are widely used in industries such as oil and gas, power generation, chemical processing, petrochemical, hydraulics, and HVAC systems. They are commonly applied in pump discharge lines, compressor systems, steam lines, and high-pressure hydraulic circuits. Their ability to protect instruments and stabilize pressure readings makes snubbers an essential component in industrial instrumentation systems.
