TROUBLE SHOOTING
The most prevalent concern with bladder
accumulators is the loss of pre-charge pressure.
Since accumulators function only due to the
differential pressure of the compressed gas
and the fluid utilized, any variation in the precharge will result in operating difficulties or the
loss of functionality. A loss of nitrogen gas precharge may occur due to, but not limited to,
gas valve leakage or internal bladder damage/
failure. Some symptoms of these conditions
are: Failure of the bladder bag indicated by the
lack of functionality of the accumulator; Inability
to maintain pre-charge pressure or gurgling/
bubbling of the fluid reservoir nitrogen gas is
leaking out of the bladder bag into system.
Insufficient pre-charge is a major concern
a single cycle of hydraulic pressure into a
bladder accumulator without pre-charge can
result in significant damage to the bladder bag,
necessitating bladder replacement. Bladder
damage can also occur if the bladder is inflated
too fast with extremely cold nitrogen gas.
Nitrogen gas leakage from the gas valve
can occur if the valve is not tightened securely;

Re-Assembly
1. Lubricate the inside of the shell and the
outside of the bladder with clean system
fluid. Also pour additional amount of fluid
in the shell to act as a cushion. Remove gas
valve or valve core from new bladder. Attach
the bladder pull rod to the bladder bag.
2.
3.
Pull plug through
accumulator shell
opening. Using both
hands, pull plug hard
until it seats into
position on shell
opening.
