TEST SECTION
Water pressure& volume test:
Estimate the water usage of all equipment connected to the water delivery system (e.g.Intellicarb = 125
G.P.H. a two Fl. Pinnacle = 100 G.P.H. Total = 225 G.P.H.) Select the 13/64 orifice to insure that you can
supply more then the 225 G.PH. Required to operate both units.
Connect the IMI Cornelius water test device (FIGURE 3) to the supply line that will be connected to the
unit.
Select the correct orifice for the static or flowing pressure that you need to verify.
Turn on the water supply, open tester shut off valve and allow the water to flow into a drain or bucket for at
least 20 seconds, read the pressure gauge while the water is still flowing, or just take the gauge reading
if static pressure is being checked.
FIGURE 3
If the gauge is reading 25 PSI (FIGURE 6) or higher with the 13/64 orifice installed you are flowing at 300
GPH or more.
FIGURE 4. Static Pressure = 60 psig FIGURE 5. Low Water Volume = less
than 25 psig
FIGURE 6. Proper Water Pressure
Volume = greater than 25 psig
No Hole = Static Pressure
Small (1/8”) = 100 GPH
Large (13/64”) = 300 GPH
Medium (3/16”) = 200 GPH
