Product Description

Accumulator -2"1/8ID -15Litres -2500KPA

The refrigeration compressor is designed to compress vapour only. A suction
line accumulator prevents compressor damage from a sudden surge of
liquid refrigerant and oil which could enter the compressor from the suction
line. The suction line accumulator is a temporary reservoir for this mixture,
designed to meter both the liquid refrigerant and oil back to the compressor
at an acceptable rate. This prevents damage to the reed valves, pistons,
rods, and crank shafts.
