Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9221012A1] The invention concerns a method of measuring the pressure of a gas in a gas accumulator which can be connected up to a hydraulic-fluid circuit and in which the gas is separated from the fluid by a dividing element. When the dividing element (12) is in a given position, the gas pressure corresponding to this position is measured by a pressure sensor (40) located on the fluid side of the element. This makes it possible to check the starting pressure in a gas accumulator without affecting the operational readiness of the accumulator with regard to its associated hydraulic-fluid circuit. The invention also concerns a device for carrying out this method.
