5. Verify the pre-charge pressure level and check the accumulator for integrity, if
6. Check the automatic switching functionality.
7. Check the start and stop points of the pressure booster system.
8. Check the water inflow, inlet pressure, lack-of-water monitoring, flow
monitoring and pressure reducer.
9. Check the inlet tank and the float valve (if applicable). Check the overflow for
integrity and cleanliness.
8.2.3
Setting the pre-charge pressure
WARNING
Wrong gas
Danger of poisoning!
▷
Use only nitrogen to charge the accumulator.
The pre-charge pressure in the accumulator should be set to a value below the set
start-up pressure.
The setting can be effected via a valve located under the cover at the top of the
accumulator.
Example: Pre-charge pressure 10 % lower than start-up pressure
Pre-charge pressure of accumulator p = 0.9 x p
start
p
start
= start-up pressure of pressure booster system
Recommendation
The stated values are average values. Tests on accumulators have shown that the best
storage volumes are achieved with the following factors:
pressures >3 bar: factor 0.9 and
pressures <3 bar: factor 0.8
Example:
p
start
= 5 bar: pre-charge pressure 5 x 0.9 = 4.5 bar
p
start
= 2 bar: pre-charge pressure 2 x 0.8 = 1.6 bar
CAUTION
Pre-charge pressure too high
Damage to accumulator!
▷
Observe data provided by accumulator manufacturer (see name plate or
operating manual of accumulator).
