ACCUMULATOR - Anti-Slug, Auto Oil Return, System Safety
Six core advantages that keep your refrigeration system protected around the clock
An internal U-shaped suction tube stops bottom liquid being entrained back into the suction line.
An oil-return capillary or hole at the bottom returns separated lubricant to the compressor automatically.
The same volume is offered in different aspect ratios to fit constrained spaces.
Inlet/outlet use TP2 deoxidized copper with ODF flare connections - easy brazing, reliable seal.
Maximum working pressure of 3.0MPa for safe high-pressure operation.
Suitable across -40°C to +120°C for all kinds of refrigeration systems.

Widely deployed across commercial and industrial refrigeration
Mode switching can flood back liquid - the accumulator is essential compressor protection.
Low-frequency inverter running is more slugging-prone; the accumulator prevents this risk.
Cold dense return gas carries more liquid and needs accumulator protection.
Cases, displays and ice makers with large load swings benefit from an accumulator.
