Katadyn/Spectra – Accumulator Tank

Description

Accumulator Tank for Spectra watermaker units.

Part no :SW-PL-ACC-TK

The purpose of the feed line accumulators is to reduce the spikes in the feed pressure caused by the cycling of the Clark Pump. If the accumulators are not properly charged it can lead to pressure spikes and system shut down. The accumulator has a Schrader air valve, like a car tire, which allows the internal air bladder of the accumulator to be pre-charged. The accumulator should be pumped up to about 60 PSI (4.1 bar) for best results. Add air using a tire pump or air compressor. You can experiment with the exact pressure that will give the best pulsation dampening on your installation
