Abstract

The invention relates to a flat pipe pressure damper for damping fluid pressure pulsations in fluid lines, in particular fuel pressure pulsations in fuel supply lines of motor vehicles, having at least one chamber, of which at least a part of the chamber wall, in operative connection with the fluid, can be elastically deformed by the fluid pressure pulsations. The invention makes the provision that a part of the chamber is filled with a fluid.
