Why can the pressure tank extend the life of the pump?

Apr 01, 2020

    The inside of the pressure tank is divided into two parts by a diaphragm made of rubber, and one side is connected to a pipe called a water storage chamber. There is air on the other side, called the gas storage chamber.

    The air stored in the gas storage chamber is responsible for adjusting the internal air pressure. By using the characteristic that air can be compressed, the intermediate diaphragm is squeezed by the compressed air pressure, so that the diaphragm squeezes the water storage chamber in the reverse direction to achieve pressurized drainage. Role.

    The water pump is continuously stored in the tank, the internal air is squeezed, the water storage capacity is increased, and the air pressure in the tank is gradually increased. When it increases to the stop pressure set by the water pump, the water pump stops working.

    At this time, the faucet is turned on, the water stored in the tank is gradually discharged, and the air pressure in the tank is gradually reduced. When the starting pressure set by the water pump is lowered, the pump starts to work again, stores water in the tank, and circulates in sequence.

    Therefore, the pressure tank can make the water pump start when it needs to work, effectively reducing the number of starting and stopping of the water pump, and prolonging the service life of the water pump. Frequent and repeated starts put pressure on the starting and running capacitors.

    Frequent and repetitive starts can cause electrical and mechanical stress on the well pump motor, as it will stop from crashing to full speed in an instant. Imagine a light bulb turning on and off repeatedly-it puts pressure on the filament, which shortens the life of the bulb.
