Suction Accumulators
Compressor damage due to liquid slugging, loss of oil from the crankcase, or bearing washout can be caused by the flood back of liquid refrigerant through the system and back to the compressor before being evaporated. In order to protect against this condition on systems vulnerable to liquid damage, such as heat pumps or commercial refrigeration, a suction accumulator must be used. The accumulator intercepts and stores the liquid refrigerant before it reaches the compressor crankcase.
- Vertical installation for small spaces
- Prevents damage to the compressor from wear of refrigerant and oil.
- Designed for low temperature applications.
- Low pressure drop.
- Corrosion resistant paint.
- Construction under ASME code.
