IMPROVES MOST AUTOMATIC WATER PRESSURE SYSTEMS
This Accumulator Tank is intended for installation in any pumped water system controlled by a pressure switch. For example, PAR-MAX™ 3 or
any Jabsco pressure pumps as found in boats, RV's, motor caravans, coaches and similar applications.
The Accumulator Tank smooths water flow and reduces on/off cycling of the pump by decreases the variation in pressure and flow between
the pump and the outlets in the system.
The even flow of water gives better control of hot water temperature especially noticeable with instantaneous gas water heaters and with
showers.
The reduced on/off cycling reduces noise from the pump motor, and from shock pressures (pipe hammer). It also reduces battery drain, and
gives longer pump life.
TYPICAL INSTALLATION
PRECHARGE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
The 30573-0000 tank is precharged at 10 psi (0.7 bar). If your pump cut-in pressure is significantly different, you may custom tune the tank
to best fit your particular installation. To increase air pressure in tank, shut pump off, open a faucet to relieve system pressure and adjust
precharge pressure using ordinary tire gauge and tire pump at valve in end of tank. Pressure should be checked from time to time. To check
tank pressure: turn off power to water pump, open a faucet to relieve pressure. Check tank pressure, adjust if necessary. Close faucet and turn
on power to pump.
For the best operating system, please charge the accumulator to 3 PSI below the cut-in pressure of your fresh water pump.
