470-7270: Hydraulic Accumulator

Description: Cat accumulators such as part # 470-7270 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. 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.
