Mounted on the suction line ahead of the compressor, the accumulator traps liquid refrigerant and returns it as vapor at a controlled rate, preventing slugging that can destroy compressor valves and bearings. A corroded, restricted, or leaking accumulator compromises this protection; the factory part restores correct refrigerant management and compressor longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suction-line accumulator (liquid slug protection)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suction line, upstream of the compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e B1226207\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman (also fits Amana)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEquipment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Packaged unit \/ condensing section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct OEM replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs. Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accumulator sizing (internal volume, bleed-hole\/oil-return orifice, and connection size) is matched to the compressor and charge of the specific unit. The genuine B1226207 provides the correct volume and oil-return characteristics. An incorrectly sized generic accumulator can cause oil-return problems or inadequate slug protection, so OEM is strongly recommended for this refrigerant-circuit component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall difficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advanced — typically 1–2 hours and EPA certification required. Recover the refrigerant, cut or unbraze the accumulator from the suction line, braze in the new component while flowing nitrogen, pressure-test and evacuate the system, then recharge to the nameplate specification. Brazing skill, a micron gauge, and proper recovery equipment are needed; this is a licensed-technician repair.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Goodman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63058011947379,"sku":"GOODMAN-9424","price":98.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/nationalhvacparts.com\/products\/oem-goodman-condenser-accumulator-for-dch060-b1226207-1","provider":"National HVAC Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
