- The accumulator piston is pushed to the right by spring force. Conversely, throttle pressure is applied to the right side of the piston and pushes the piston to the left side. The accumulator piston is maintained by the balance of the throttle pressure and the spring force. When the throttle pressure is high, the piston moves to the left and absorbs the pressure. Conversely, when the pressure is low, the piston moves to the right and compensates for the pressure insufficiency.
