ABS
ACCUMULATOR PRECHARGE
Check
The diaphragm type accumulator is precharged with
nitrogen at 80 bar, its function is to store hydraulic
energy. Over a period of several years a normal loss
of precharge will occur. This procedure will indicate
extent to which precharge pressure has fallen.
NOTE: A new accumulator at 20°C has a
nominal pressure of 80 bar + 2. Minimum
acceptable pressure is 50 bar.

Depressurise brake system. See Repair,
Depressurise System
5.
There should be a rapid rise in pressure to
accumulator precharge, point X, of 80 bar, then
a slowing down in rate of increase as pressure
rises to system pressure, 180 bar, see graph A
Accumulator has lost precharge if point x occurs
below 80 bar, see graph B
Fit new accumulator if point X occurs below 50
bar.
Depressurise system, remove pressure gauge
and adapter.

Remove banjo bolt securing high pressure hose,
use a second spanner on large hexagon to
prevent it being slackened.
