Application
Accumulators are installed in the suction line between the evaporator and the compressor. They trap liquid refrigerant and oil, allowing only vapor to pass through to the compressor. This protects against liquid slugging during startup, defrost cycles, and system upsets — extending compressor life and improving system reliability.
