An accumulator tank is an important part of any pressurised water system that includes a pressure-controlled pump (some modern computer-controlled pumps may not require an accumulator tank). Fitted close to the discharge port of the pressurised water pump, the accumulator tank acts as a pressure buffer, ensuring a smooth flow of water from the outlets. Without an accumulator tank, the pump is liable to switch itself rapidly on and off whenever its flow rate exceeds demand from the outlets. Constant on-off cycling leads to increased pump wear and unnecessary battery drain. The accumulator tank stops this rapid cycling, resulting in smooth water flow (important in showers) and an extended pump life.
