3000 PSIVALVES 5000 PSIVALVES
For accumulators rated for 5000 psi, use gaging assembly in Figure
7(Part#871372XX00) and follow steps 8 through 14.
3000 PSI RATED UNITS
(1) Remove gas valve guard and gas valve cap.(For top repairable
unit connect valve extension Part #085434XX00) as shown in
Figure 3 and tighten with wrench.
(2) Close bleed valve and turn “T”handle all the way out.
(3a) Attach gauging assembly to gas valve or to gas valve extension
and tighten swivel nut (10-15 in.lb.) (11.5-17 cm kg), when using
gauging assembly in Figure 1.
(3b) Install gas valve o-ring on the gas valve, and attach gauging
assembly to valve stem.Tighten assembly (25-30 in.lb.) (29-35
cm kg) when using gauging assembly in Figure 4.
(4) Turn “T”handle all the way down, which will depress core in gas
valve and check pressure.
(5) To remove gauging assembly, turn “T” handle all the way out and
then open bleeder valve.
(6) Hold gas valve from turning, loosen swivel nut and remove
assembly.
(7) If necessary, remove valve extension, then install cap on gas
valve (10-15 in.lb.) (11.5-17 cm kg) and valve guard.
25-40 GALLON 3000 PSI AND 5000 PSI RATED UNITS EQUIPPED
WITH MS GASVALVE AS SHOWN INFIGURE9.
(8) Remove gas valve guard and gas valve cap.
(9) Close bleed valve.
(10) Attach gauging assembly to gas valve and tighten swivel
nut (10-15 in.lb.) (11.5-17 cm kg).
(11) Referring to Figure 9, hold gas valve at point “C” with one (1)
wrench while unscrewing hexnut at point “D”with a second
wrench.This will open the poppet inside the gas valve.Note, four
(4) turns will fully open poppet.Check pre-charge pressure.
(12) With wrench, tighten hexnut at point “D”to close internal
poppet (10-15 in. lb.) (11.5-17 cm kg).
(13) Hold gas valve at point“C” with a wrench and remove
swivel nut assembly.
(14) Replace cap on gas valve (10-15 in.lb.) (11.5-17 cm kg) and
install gas valve guard.
Removal of Accumulator From
Hydraulic System
Shut equipment down and make certain that hydraulic pressure at the
accumulator is at zero.
Remove gas valve guard and gas valve cap.
3000 PSI RATED UNITS
Accumulators rated for 3000 psi will have a gas valve as shown in
Figure 8A or 8B.For these units, attach gaging assembly (Part
#085122XX00) or (Part #087103XX00)for 10 - 150 cubic inch, and
(Part #087101XX00) for 1-15 gallon.
Open bleed valve and release all the gas pressure.Detach gauging
assembly and, using valve core removing tool (Part #582441XX00),
remove valve core.
Remove accumulator from hydraulic system.
25-40 GALLON 3000 PSI AND 5000 PSI RATED UNITS EQUIPPED
WITH MS GASVALVE AS SHOWN INFIGURE9.
Accumulators rated for 5000 psi will have a gas valve as shown in
Figure 9. For these units, after removing valve cap, hold valve at point
“C” with one (1) wrench while unscrewing hexnut at point “D” with a
second wrench until gas begins to escape through the top of the valve.
Wait until all the gas pressure has been released.
(Caution:Keep face away from gas valve as the high pressure nitrogen
is discharging.)
Remove accumulator from hydraulic system.
Part Number Gauging Assemblyfor 3000 PSI Bottom Repairable
085122 XX00 Gauging device consisting of adapter incorporating gas valve
bleeder valve and gas chuck including gauge.
Part Number Charging and Gauging Assembly
for 3000 PSI Bottom &Top Repairable
087102 XX00 Charging and Gauging Assembly consists of10'charging hose with
(10-150 cu. in.) standard right-hand thread nitrogen fittings adapter incorporating
087100 XX00 gas valve bleeder valve and gas chuck (less gauge).
(1-15 gal.)
Maintenance
Little maintenance is required for a bladder accumulator.If there is
external leakage, tighten all connections.If leakage continues, remove
accumulator from system and replace faulty components.
After original installation, check pre-charge once during first week to
see that no leak has developed.Thereafter, check pre-charge monthly.
Check pre-charge if the system is acting sluggish.If pre-charge is low,
check gas valve for leakage and recharge.
If there is no gas in bladder and fluid appears at gas valve, unit must
be removed and bladder replaced.
Pre-charge Checking Procedure
Using appropriate valve in the hydraulic system, discharge all oil from
accumulator.
For accumulators rated for 3000 psi, either use gaging assembly in
Figure 2 (Part #085122XX00) or gaging assembly in Figure 5 (Part
#087101XX00) and follow Steps 1 through 7.
Part Number Charging and Gauging Assemblyfor 3000 PSI Bottom Repairable
144595 XX00 Charging and Gauging Assembly consists of10'charging hose with
(Std) standard right-hand thread nitrogen fittings adapter incorporating
(Right Hand) gas valve bleeder valve and gas chuck (less gauge).For left-hand
thread nitrogen bottle fitting specify part number 144596 XX00.
