How do you size an accumulator?

With larger accumulators, multiply the figures in the chart times the gallon capacity of the accumulator. For example, if working with a 10-gallon accumulator, multiply chart figures times 10, etc. Figures in the chart are about 5% less than if calculated by Boyle's Law for theoretical discharge.

How do I choose an accumulator?

To select the correct accumulator for an application, you must have the following information: Flow rate and total fluid volume required — This requires pump, piping, cylinder, and other component specifications.

Which type of accumulator should not be used for applications requiring high cycle rates?

A bladder accumulator should not be used when pre-charge pressure is less than half the maximum pressure.
