Description:
Cat accumulators such as part # 612-4842 are used in mining and construction equipment. They store and release pressure as needed to stabilize machine-specific hydraulic systems, allowing the use of less powerful pumps to respond to temporary quick demands for pressure. Brake accumulators enable stopping even when the engine is not running, oil-with-nitrogen accumulators absorb and dampen road shocks, and blade accumulators help maintain machine control and minimize blade damage when a blade strikes a fixed object.
Warning: Consult your dealer regarding the proper procedures for relieving accumulator system pressure prior to servicing the accumulator. Failure to do so may result in injury or death.
Attributes:
• Uncharged hydraulic accumulator
• Capacity: 6 L (1.58 GAL)

Application:
Cat Accumulators may be used in a variety of applications including hydraulic systems, allowing the system to manage pressure spikes, an example of which might be a heavy load. They might also be used in brake and suspension systems. Consult your owner's manual or contact your local Cat Dealer for more information.
