Currently in school for aviation maintenance, and am now getting around to learning hydraulics and pneumatic systems. This, along with your other videos, are a great resource thank you!
Thanks Preston! It means a lot to hear that our videos are helping people, contact us on Instagram so we can send you links for free coupons for hydraulic courses :)
Gravity keeps the fluid in a certain portion of the accumulator, imagine fluid being on top of the nitrogen bladder and every time the volume of the bladder expands, some of the oil gets stuck. To be honest I don't know about any accumulators that have their oil on top of the bladder. It is always recommended to install the bladder type accumulators vertically with the fluid port being down.
@@engineeringpod Today I installed newly charged accumulator for our shark jaw and tow pin system. The accumulator is initially charged 80 bars. The system working pressure is 220 bars. Now it is working. We use the accumulator for emergency release in case of blackout or the main pump failed. Your video really helps me understand what's really inside the accumulator. Thanks so much.

What would be benefits / disadvantages of having the fluid on top instead of the nitrogen charge or Vis versa?
