The accumulator cuts short-cycling. The built-in pressure-reducing valve means you are not buying a separate regulator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis is line-pressure equipment. It does not make 9 bar at the puck. The machine’s brew pump still does that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eOn the drain side, the armored hose runs from the drip tray into the 6.6-gallon waste tank, which lifts out for dumping. The waste tank is sized larger than the fresh tank so you are not emptying mid-event every time the reservoir is refilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlumbed commercial and prosumer machines that need a stable inlet when city water is absent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarts and catering setups drawing from a tank up to 8 vertical feet below the pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine water inlets with a 3\/8\" BSP female port (common on European machines).
