Manual or Electric
operated valves |
A valve controls the flow of oil between the engine the Accusump.
In hard core racing applications a manual valve
is used for simplicity. This valve can be mounted either on the Accusump directly
or plumbed anywhere convenient along the feed line. With this valve, the operator
has to manually open the valve before starting the engine and close the
valve before shutting the engine off. |

For other applications an electric valve can
simplify it's use. They 
are ideal when used in applications where it is difficult to access a
manual valve lever or to plumb the Accusump remotely like in a 'daily driver',
boat, or an RV. This electric valve can be opened and closed from a
remote dash-mounted switch or it can be wired directly into the ignition
so it will open and close automatically when the ignition is in the 'on'
or the 'off' position. |

Our E.P.C. valving is ideal for those looking for the convenience of an electric valve and the fast
refill rate required in racing applications. The pressure control system keeps the electric valve
in the off position during times of normal oil pressure. With the valve in the off position the
Accusump is able to quickly regain oil pressure after discharge, thus being ready for the next oil surge.
When the engine's oil pressure drops below a predetermined level the valve opens and releases
the stored oil in to the system.
