SERVICE BRAKE HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATOR - REPLACE/REPAIR/TEST Contd)
5. IF PRECHARGE PRESSURE READING
OBSERVED IN STEP 4 IS TOO LOW, ADD
NITROGEN TO SERVICE BRAKE HYDRAULIC
ACCUMULATOR (1) .
a. Connect nitrogen charging
bottle to charging and gauging
assembly.
b. Turn isolating valve on and
admit nitrogen into diaphragm of
accumulator (l). Do this slowly,
checking the pressure gauge
reading at regular
intervals.
c. Repeat step 5b, as necessary, until
precharge pressure is 700 psi ± 50.
6. IF PRECHARGE PRESSURE READING OBSERVED
IN STEP 4 IS TOO HIGH, BLEED NITROGEN
FROM SERVICE BRAKE HYDRAULIC
ACCUMULATOR (1).
a. Open bleeder valve on charging and
gauging assembly to vent nitrogen
from the accumulator diaphragm as
required.
Leave the bleeder valve
open for only a short period and
then close it.
b. Check the precharge pressure.
C. Repeat steps 6a and 6b, as
necessary, until precharge
pressure is 700 psi ± 50.
