Question Acummulator installation

Okay,
Been a while since this thread originated but i have finally bought an acumulator at the Rally flea market this weekend.
It is the Shurflo model.

I got some advice on pressurizing the unit to 20 lbs with a bicyle tire pump but I am going to ask the Jury again about the locaion f the accumulator to be installed.

I see where UWE says to install near pump but I checked a site on Water hammer disipation and they said to install half way to farthest valve.

I am ready to install but I am looking for opinions on where to install the unit.

Any takers?
