I want to employ an accumulator after reading all about the problems. So I figured someone would know what size to use on the wee little 320 hydraulic system.
I went to the internet to see if there was a formula for doing such. And there is:

Of course somebody must know the volume in the system. Does anybody know that? My guess is between .15 gallons and .2 gallons (19-25 ounces). If this is close the accumulator of 3-7 in³ might be close too.

The temperature ranges are 10ºF to 160ºF (too high I’m sure). Max pressure 2,000psi initial of 500psi. If the initial pressure is 1,000psi or so, the vol of the accumulator rises to about 10 in³.

Can somebody help please? Comments?
