- Hydro-pneumatic accumulators need to be pre-charged with an inert gas in order to work at all. Selection of the correct gas pressure is vital, as it defines the stored hydraulic fluid volume and pressure, which are important for the safe and correct operation of any machine. It is important that the correct gas pressure is maintained, and periodic inspection is therefore necessary.
This gas used in hydro-pneumatic accumulators is almost always industrial grade nitrogen. The use of other gasses in these applications is dangerous, and should not be considered.
The nitrogen pre-charge pressure of an accumulator can only be assessed when it has been fully de-pressurised of hydraulic fluid.
This means that the accumulator must be positively isolated from a live system and released of all hydraulic energy, or that the entire system has been completely shut-down and fully de-pressurised, or that the accumulator is not currently connected to a system, for example, it is on a work bench.
The HYDAC FPU-1 Universal charging and testing unit can be fitted directly to HYDAC diaphragm and piston accumulators.
The accumulator gas valve will be opened and re-sealed by operating a hex key in a socket head cap screw, and during the charging process, it will be operated by the main spindle of the charge head.
Use only the correct equipment, that is the universal charging and testing unit, and follow this process.

The purpose of this video is to give you some guidance of how to charge an hydro-pneumatic accumulator. Note that only people with special technical training should undertake this task.
Sou projetista e estou desenvolvendo uma bancada de enchimento para acumuladores HYDAC. Esse video me ajudou demais. Obrigado
Very nice explanation
Nice information
hello i would like to ask a question this bladder accumulator this valve is the same as the piston accumulator i have one in our company and the valve has this screw i would like to know if this valve are the same
Where do you get the hose to regulator adapter?
What kind of gas regulator that i need to use? At what pressure rating?
Hello Falken, at 2:15 in the video we say; “Before connecting a Nitrogen regulator to a Nitrogen bottle…”
Use a Nitrogen regulator. Ensure that it is rated above the pressure of the Nitrogen gas bottle.
The regulator shown is rated to a maximum outlet pressure of 20,000kPa.
Can u show working model
