Frequently Asked Questions about Pressure Vessels & Accessories
Q: What size pressure vessel do I need for my irrigation system? A: The pressure vessel size depends on your pump capacity and water demand. Larger systems typically require vessels from 24 litres upwards, while smaller domestic setups may only need 8-20 litre vessels.
Q: How do pressure switches work with irrigation pumps? A: Pressure switches automatically start and stop your pump based on system pressure. They typically cut in at low pressure (when irrigation zones open) and cut out at high pressure (when zones close).
Q: Are braided hoses better than standard irrigation hose? A: Braided hoses offer superior pressure resistance and flexibility compared to standard hoses, making them ideal for pump connections and high-pressure applications.
Q: How often should pressure vessels be replaced? A: With proper maintenance, pressure vessels can last 5-10 years. Replace when the diaphragm fails or if the vessel shows signs of corrosion or damage.
Q: What’s the difference between float switches and pressure switches? A: Float switches monitor water levels in tanks or sumps, while pressure switches monitor system pressure. Both serve different automation functions in irrigation systems.
Q: Do I need a spare flange for my pressure vessel? A: Spare flanges are recommended for maintenance purposes, especially in commercial installations where downtime must be minimised during repairs.
Q: Can these components handle agricultural irrigation demands? A: Yes, these pressure vessels and accessories are suitable for both domestic and agricultural irrigation systems when properly sized for the application.
Q: Are pressure switches adjustable? A: Most pressure switches offer adjustable cut-in and cut-out pressures, allowing customisation for specific system requirements.
Q: What maintenance do pressure vessels require? A: Regular checks of air pressure in the diaphragm chamber and inspection of connections. Professional servicing is recommended annually for commercial systems.
Q: Will these accessories work with my existing pump? A: These components are designed to work with standard irrigation pumps. Check connection sizes and pressure ratings to ensure compatibility with your specific system.
