F93 Series Air Volume Controls for Deep Wells
Code No. LIT-1922355
Issued November 22, 2011
Description
The F93 Series Air Volume Controls for Deep Wells control the amount
of air in residential water storage tanks. Water storage tanks in
residential water systems rely on a volume of air in the tank to provide
system pressure, making it important to control the amount of air in the
tank.
Too little air in the tank results in rapid pump cycling - a problem
common in shallow well systems (less than 25 ft [7.6 m] deep). Too
much air in the tank results in air entering the distribution system - a
problem common in deep well systems (more than 25 ft [7.6 m] deep).
The F93 Series Air Volume Control for Deep Wells allows air to escape
from the tank and into the surrounding room when the water level in the
tank drops (increase of air volume).
Features
• Sturdy Noryl (High Performance Thermoplastic) Body
• Brass Internal Operating Parts
