1.  STANDARD OPERATION: 20 PSI DIFFERENTIAL

2.  CONSTANT PRESSURE MODE: 10 PSI DIFFERENTIAL

The Well-X1

®

 functions like a traditional pressure switch by cycling the pump on and off. The factory pressure settings are 

40 psi cut-in and 60 psi cut-out. The controller allows these settings to be adjusted to best suit the application. The Well-X1

 

can operate in two primary modes:

LOCATION

The Well-X1 is designed for indoor and outdoor installations. 

If installed outdoors:

• Do not install where ambient temperatures can drop 

below freezing or exceed 130° F.

• 

Use water-tight wiring conduit, wire nuts and 

conduit connections as dictated by applicable codes  

and ordinances.

•  Protect the piping from mechanical damage.

• Install the relief valve blow down tube where venting 

water will not cause personal injury or damage the  

surrounding property.

• Drip Pan and Drain: To avoid leaking and/or property 

damage, install with a drip pan connected to an adequate 

working drain kept clear at all times.

ORIENTATION

Ensure the installation meets all applicable local codes 

and is installed by a licensed professional. Additionally, the 

following should be noted.

•  This unit is designed for vertical installation above ground 

only. Do not install horizontally or directly bury the unit. 

The Well-X1 may be installed below grade in a well pit or 

other suitable enclosure. 

Do not locate in an area where 

leaking or flooding could cause property damage to 

surrounding areas.

• Check codes to determine if there are any height 

requirements pertaining to the Well-X1. 

 

Particularly, 

ensure the bottom drain meets these requirements. 

If restrictions are imposed on the proximity of drain 

connections  to  the  floor,  the  unit  may  be  elevated  on 

blocks or the bottom drain tube can be removed and 

plugged, after which a sampling tap may be installed in 

the water lines near the top of the Well-X1.
