Maintenance
Routine check (6 monthly intervals)
1. Check the pump produces the correct pressure.
2. Check that the pump operates without undue noise or vibration.
3. Check the break tank is clean and that the correct water level has been maintained.
4. Check that all screws are tight on electrical components.
5. Check that the earth connections are tight and making good contact.
6. Check that the gas pre charge is at the correct pressure, this should be done by isolating the vessel from
the system and draining water out of the vessel via the isolation valve drain point.
once the water has been discharged, a tyre gauge can be connected to the pre charge valve to display the
vessel pre charge pressure. Recharge as necessary with Nitrogen or dry air.
Any other expansion vessels connected to the system can be checked in the same manner.
