What Is a Refrigerant Accumulator?

A refrigerant accumulator is installed on the suction line between the evaporator and the compressor. Its primary function is to capture any liquid refrigerant or oil that has not fully vaporized before reaching the compressor, preventing costly compressor damage caused by liquid slugging. This makes it an essential component in heat pump and air conditioning systems where refrigerant management is critical to system reliability.
