VIRGINIA Suction Line Accumulator: 3/4 in Sweat, 7.44 lb Capacity, 11.31 in Ht

A VIRGINIA suction line accumulator protects compressors in refrigeration and air conditioning systems by preventing liquid slugging. It temporarily stores excess liquid refrigerant and oil, returning them at a controlled rate. This model is suitable for commercial HVACR applications where system load variations can cause liquid floodback.

The VIRGINIA VPA58116SRD ACCUMLATOR has a steel shell, copper 3/4 in sweat connections, a 7.44 lb liquid capacity, 11.31 in height, and 5 in diameter. It includes a metering orifice. The manufacturer part number is VPA58116SRD ACCUMLATOR. These specs are critical for matching system refrigerant charge and piping size.
