An accumulator (100) for a hydraulic system, wherein the accumulator (100) comprises a liner (110), a piston (140) and a housing (200), that defines a pressure chamber (PC), for receiving hydraulic fluid at high pressure, wherein the piston (140) is biased towards an end position of the pressure chamber (PC) for interacting with the hydraulic fluid in the pressure chamber (PC), and the piston (140) is movable in a predetermined range for accumulating hydraulic fluid. The accumulator has at least one outlet port (111) in a sidewall (112) of the liner (110), which outlet port (111) is covered by the piston (140) in the predetermined range and is uncovered when the piston (140) has moved a predetermined distance from the end position. A hydraulic system is also provided that comprises the above accumulator and an all-wheel drive system comprising the above hydraulic system. A method for de-airing an accumulator according to above is also provided. |
