NO-TANK with Constant Pressure Pump (Variable Speed)
Inspect NO-TANK for damage and proper tank pressure.
|
 |
Following
are a few simple suggested steps
1. Determine operating pressure of water system and adjust air pressure
in NO-TANK
to pump manufactures recommended pre charge.
2. Pump is set in the well and wired to manufactures recommendation.
3. NO-TANK
should be located in pump drop pipe 5' to 20' below the pitless
adaptor. This will allow the tank to be centered in the well.
4. Install the pressure transducer either at the well or in
the home in accordance with pump manufacturers instructions.
If there is reference to the transducer being within 6’ of pressure
tank, disregard. Since NO-TANK
is directly in line there is no danger of water hammer.
5. Complete piping in accordance with all plumbing and electrical codes.
6. Start systeml.
7. At start up, pump may not function properly until all air is removed
from system. Cycle pump several times before any adjustments are made.
Once pump is running normally adjust according to desired pressure.
8. Attach information tag supplied to main shut off valve or electrical
wire in well.

2. Pump is set in the well and wired to pump
manufactures recommendations. NO-TANK
with constant pressure valve should be placed 5' to 10' below
pitless. The tank and valve will be centered in the well
casing. We do not recommend setting the top of the pressure
tank lower than 10' since this may result in the constant pressure
valve being lower than 20' in the well and could cause low water
pressure in the home.
3. Install the constant pressure valve in
drop pipe string.
4. Install a pipe nipple between constant pressure valve and NO-TANK.
5. Install NO-TANK.
6. Install the 5' to 10' final section of pipe above NO-TANK
and lower pipe into the well so that the NO-TANK is positioned
properly, continue with the normal installation.
7. Install the pressure switch and other fittings as required. We
suggest that SQ-D model FYG2 50-70 be used when either a 50# or 60#
Constant pressure valve is used. If a 30-50 or 40-60 model
FYG1 is used, then the switch will have to be adjusted as follows: Adjust the differential setting
of the switch to 26PSI. For a 50# valve, the setting should
be 40-66 . For a 60# valve, the setting should be 45-71.
(If the switch is a SQ D, tighten the short spring three
turns. This should increase the differential about 6 pounds.)
8. Start system; allow system to run a few minutes
to remove trapped air from water lines.
9. Close valve, if pump short cycles, increase pressure switch setting
slightly until short cycling stops. (This may be a 2 to 5# increase in
pressure before the problem is corrected) There is no need to add
additional air to NO-TANK.
12. Attach Information tag to main shut off valve

FLEX-TANK with Constant Pressure Pump (Variable Speed)
FLEX-TANK can be installed with either end up.
If a center discharge pitless is used then have the center
discharge end of tank up. If a side discharge pitless is used
then the off center end of the tank is up.
|
|
Following
are a few simple suggested steps
1. FLEX-TANK can be either pre-charged prior to being placed in the
well or it can be pre-charged after being placed in the well and before
it is set on the pitless adaptor.
2. Determine operating pressure of water system and pre-charge
FLEX-TANK to pump manufacturers recommended pre-charge.
3. Pump is set in the well and wired to manufacturers recommendation.
4. Install FLEX-TANK in the drop pipe string. Use holding
strap on tank to hold tank while tank is pre-charged and pipe nipple an
pitless adaptor is attached.
5. Install the pressure transducer in the home in accordance with pump
manufacturers instructions. If there is reference to the transducer
being with- in 6’ of pressure tank, disregard. Since FLEX-TANK is
directly in line there is no danger of water hammer
6. Complete piping in accordance with all plumbing and electrical codes.

1. FLEX-TANK can be
either pre-charged prior to being placed in the well (this would be
required if a center discharge pitless is used) or it can be
pre-charged after being placed in the well and before it is set on the
pitless adaptor. The
FLEX-TANK
should be precharged to 40PSI, this will be the correct pressure for
pressure systems operated at either 50 or 60PSI.
2. Pump is set in the well and wired to manufacturers recommendation.
3. FLEX-TANK
and constant pressure valve would be located just below the pitless
adatpor.
4. Install the constant pressure valve in drop pipe string.
5. Install a pipe nipple between constant pressure valve and FLEX-TANK.
6. Install FLEX-TANK.
Pre charge tank at this point to 40PSI.
7. Install pipe nipple above FLEX-TANK
and set on pitless adaptor. The pressure switch can be
installed at either the well or on the water line in the home or
building.
8. Install the pressure switch and other fittings as required.
We suggest that a 50-70 switch be used, if it is, there is no
need to make any adjustments. If a 40-60 switch is used then
the differential needs to be increased. Adjust the
differential by tightening the short spring at least 3 turns.
The pressure should be 40-66.
9. Start system; allow system to run for a few minutes to remove
trapped air from water lines.
10. If pump short cycles at 1 gallon per minute follow rate, increase
pressure switch setting slightly until short cycleing stops.
(This may be a 2 to 5# increase in pressure before the
problem is corrected) There is no need to add additional air
to the FLEX-TANK.
11. Attach information tag supplied to main shut off valve in
well.

INFORMATIONAL BULLETIN
Number 1 July 18, 2003
Placement of check valve when installing the
No-Tank.
• When installing the No-Tank, be sure to place
the check valve below the pressure tank. If the check valve is
installed above the pressure tank, it is possible for the water
pressure to increase in the water lines, as the water in the hot water
heater is heated.
• It has been brought to our attention, if two or
more check valves are installed in the drop pipe, that some pump
installers are installing one of the check valves between the constant
pressure valve and the pressure tank. Their reasoning is that it
reduces the backpressure on the constant pressure valve when the pump
is not running. The placement would be constant pressure valve, short
nipple, check valve, short nipple, and then the No-Tank.
Cycle Stop Valve release
• Cycle Stop has sent out an informational
release, regarding their CSV1 valve, when it is submerged. They are
recommending that a ¼” diameter hole should be drilled in the valve, to
allow the valve to react to changes in pressure at a faster rate. IT
SHOULD ONLY BE DRILLED THROUGH THE RED LAYER IN THE VALVE. The red
layer is about 3/16” thick, then a 3/16” space, and than a yellow
layer. When the hole is drilled only through the red layer, no water
will leak from the valve. Instructions attached.
(If you have additional questions please contact Cycle Stop at
800-652-0207)
