Post by: steven Banks on April 22, 2012, 02:03:51 pm
Hi Guys,

Doe's the nitrogen accumulator actually need to be installed in the system or can it be operated without?

Thanks alot,

Steve,
I have a Blazer too. I believe it's used to stop the judder caused by the water pump so the steam from the wand comes out continuously. If you do decide to not use it, could you sell it to me as mine has a small leak.

Cheers,

Dave

We discovered that when we rebuilt our Prochem machine (Performer) the rubber accumulator bladder had perished to such an extent that is was useless and could not have been working properly for ages - we had not noticed the lack of an accumulator BUT once we replaced it with a new bladder the performance at the wand was a lot more comfortable - the solution/steam jet was more controlled - not a sudden release - the pressure was released gradually as you triggered and did not jerk hardly at all - definitely worth investigating replacement rather than just struggling on with it as it is...

they're supposed to make the heat exchanger and water pump last longer
