TM-5-2350-262-20-3
MAIN ACCUMULATOR CHARGING
CAUTION
Ensure regulator valve is fully backed off to relieve tension on
diaphragm. Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment.
NOTE
Rapid pressurization will cause an inaccurate pressure reading
due to heating of nitrogen gas. Always pressurize slowly.
Adjust regulator valve (1) on nitrogen tank (2) to 1,750-1,850 psi (12,066-12,756 kPa).
Open shutoff valve (3). Read pressure measuring device (4). When pressure reaches
1,750-1,850 psi (12,066-12,756 kPa), close shutoff valve (3), nitrogen tank valve (5), and
accumulator charge valve (6).
Wait 15 minutes and open charge valve (6). Read pressure measuring device (4).
Refer to TM 5-2350-262-20-2.
