Amtrol WELL-X-TROL WX-401, Sizing Instructions

Page: 1 / 8

This handbook will discuss the basic sizing used
for our larger Well-X-Trol
®
s such as WX-400, 420,
440, and 450 series. This allows you to use the Well-
X-Trol
®
“principle of separation of air and water” on
larger jobs that are beyond the typical residential
range.
The
Well-X-Trol
®
models we’ll be working with in
this handbook are listed in Table 1.
The design features of these larger models allow
us to apply them more creatively than the smaller
residential models found in the Well-X-Trol
®
100,
200, and 250 series.
The Larger Well-X-Trol
®
s are Designed and Built
for Maximum Acceptance on Each Operating
Cycle
In the smaller residential Well-X-Trol
®
s , the design
is for basic intermittent use and for the usually
found in residential applications. Standard pressure
ranges of (20) PSIG (between pump cut-in and
pump cut-out) are used.
In these applications, full use of the maximum
acceptance volume of the Well-X-Trol
®
is rarely
required to meet job conditions.
