MF100-ACC
Accumulator & Unloading Valve Module
The MF100-ACC Accumulator Training Module is a plug-and-play expansion system designed to teach one of the most important, and misunderstood, hydraulic technologies: accumulators and differential pressure unloading valves. This module allows instructors to demonstrate accumulator function, types, applications, gas-charging procedures, and the role of unloading valves in energy management and system protection. It attaches directly to any MF102 Series training simulator, making it a perfect upgrade for programs seeking deeper hydraulic theory and hands-on application.
With real industrial components, a stored-energy safety bleed-off valve, and a complete gas-charging assembly, students learn how to safely charge accumulators with nitrogen, set differential pressure unloading valves correctly, and build circuits directly from ANSI/ISO schematics. The MF100-ACC turns abstract concepts into practical skills, all within a safe and instructor-controlled learning environment.
Spec Sheet
MF100-ACC — Key Features & Benefits
Teaches the Function & Types of Accumulators
