PRESSURE TANK SIZING and SET-UP

• Use Total Tank Volume to size tank. Total tank volume should be approximately 20% of

the pump’s maximum flow rate. Ex., pump maximum flow =10 GPM = 2 gallon Total Vol.
tank.

• If the User Interface Board (UIB) is set for a 5 PSI Pressure Drop adjust the tank pressure

to 20 PSI below the desired system set-point. Ex., 50 PSI system set-point = 30 PSI tank
pre-charge.

• If the UIB is set for a 20 PSI Pressure Drop adjust the tank pressure to 30 PSI below the de-

sired system set-point. Ex., 50 PSI system set-point = 20 PSI tank pre-charge. Each system
is different so this setting may require minor adjustment for optimum performance.

• Large Tanks - installations with large volume tanks may require minor tank pre-charge

pressure adjustments for optimum performance - please see more details in IM229, espe-
cially if the system turns On and Off too often or does not turn off.
