Why Use an Accumulator?
Accumulators are essential refrigeration components that prevent liquid refrigerant from entering the compressor suction port. Liquid refrigerant cannot be compressed and, if allowed to enter the compressor, can cause catastrophic mechanical damage. The Tecumseh TK00044000 accumulator acts as a safeguard, storing excess liquid and allowing only vapor to pass through to the compressor, protecting your investment and reducing costly downtime.
