The Parker U tube accumulator design is a result of extensive laboratory testing plus detailed investigation of the various accumulators currently available. It takes into account all of the requirements essential for heat pump applications, including safe holding volume (relative to the system is total charge), protected flow control for positive refrigerant and oil return, and minimum pressure drop across the accumulator.
- Solid copper connections
- U tube design for maximum flow of refrigerant and minimum oil entrapment
- Inlet flow deflector guides refrigerant toward wall for smooth tangential flow and gradual expansion
- U tube entrance is positioned behind the inlet flow deflector to prevent unwanted liquid refrigerant from entering and damaging compressor
- Metering orifice matched to system capacity assures optimum liquid refrigerant and oil flow back to compressor
- Protective screen and orifice assembly on U tube protects against foreign particles and contaminants affecting metering function
- Fittings and U tube are matched to accumulator holding capacity and total system charge for minimum pressure drop and maximum refrigerant flow
- Powder paint exterior coating surpasses 500 hr ASTM salt spray tests
- Integral 430 deg F fuse plugs
- 680 psi working pressure
