Different inner diameter internal or external pressure drop tubes or orifice plate openings producing different discharge pressure pulse amplitudes are employed in a pump pulsation control reactive discharge dampener. Either both pressure drop tubes/orifice plates may be mounted concurrently on or in the dampener, connected to different discharge pipes used selectively by the operator depending upon the piston or plunger size being employed, or the pressure drop tubes/orifice plates may be interchangeable.
