Constant Water Pressure Tank

When the pressure in your tank reaches 40 psi the pump starts and pumps water until the pressure reaches 60 psi and shuts off.

Constant water pressure tank. A standard submersible pump has either off or on. The balanced flow is a variable speed constant pressure controller designed exclusively for submersible well pumps. Instead of turning on and off when pressure tanks read a certain psi generally 40 or 60 franklin s constant pressure system keeps your tank at one pressure level providing your home with a never ending steady flow of water. Using a tire pressure gauge check the schrader valve on top of the pressure tank.

What are the benefits of a constant pressure well pump. The pump in your well is set to run at one speed keeping the pressure in your tank at either 40 psi or 60 psi. The controller monitors the pressure in the system and adjusts the pump speed to maintain a constant pressure. Supports high volume needs.

If your well turns on at 30 and off at 50 psi it should have 28 psi in it. The 20 gallon pressure tank by water worker features a heavy duty butyl rubber diaphragm pre charged at 38 psi. In a typical constant pressure water pump the submersible pump works by pushing water up through a drop pipe to the surface. Owners of the water worker pressure tank report that it rivals the quality of the popular well x trol tank minus the price tag.

These inline constant water pressure systems are installed on your main water line and connect to a pressure tank that feeds your whole house. A check valve will keep the water from flowing back into the well so that when the pressure in the system drops by 5 psi a sensor will indicate to the pump that it s time to turn on. As water demand picks up the pump in the inline unit will pump faster keeping the pressure from dropping due to the increased water demand. This system has served us well over the years.

It provides smooth control for residential submersible water systems which typically uses a larger tank and switch. The outer shell is made of rugged steel while the inside is lined with polypropylene to prevent corrosion. In a constant pressure system when water demand increases pump speed increases and when water demand decreases the pump speed will decrease. When most people refer to a constant pressure system they are talking about a variable rate submersible pump.

Water pressure always remains steady. Turn off power to the well pump and run water after the pressure tank or in the house until there is no water pressure left. Water worker city water pressure booster system with 14 gal. It should be 2 psi less than the cut in or lower pressure.
