2.4 Precharge pressure setting
The precharge pressure of the diaphragm tank must
be set to 70 % of the pressure setting in order to use
the tank to the limit of its capacity. This is of course
especially important when the tank volume is limited
to 8 litres.
Use the values in the following table:

If the precharge pressure is higher than the pressure
setting, the system is not able to control the pressure.
If the user wants to adjust the pressure without
changing the precharge pressure of the diaphragm
tank, the precharge pressure must be equal to the
lowest pressure setting used. This means that the
control works but that the pressure fluctuations might
increase. In such cases, we recommend that you use
a larger diaphragm tank, for example a tank of double
size.
2.5 Pressure relief valve
In order to provide protection against the possibility of
an overpressurization, a pressure relieve valve must
be installed down stream of the well head. The
setpoint of the pressure relief valve must be at least
30 psi above the pressure setting. See section
5. Setting the product.
If a relief valve is installed, we recommend that its
outlet is plumbed into an appropriate drainage point.

3.1 Product description
The system maintains a constant pressure within the
maximum pump performance in spite of a varying
water consumption.

Pos. Description
1 CU 301
2 Diaphragm tank
3 Pressure sensor
4 SQE pump
The pressure is registered by means of the pressure
sensor, which transmits a signal to CU 301. CU 301
adjusts the pump performance accordingly by
changing the pump speed.
Mains borne signalling
The communication between CU 301 and the pump is
effected via the power cable.
This communication principle is called mains borne
signalling, or power line communication. Using this
principle means that no additional cables to the pump
are required.
The communication of data is effected by means of a
high-frequency signal transmitted to the power cable
and led into the electronics unit by means of signal
coils incorporated in the motor and CU 301
respectively.
In situations where multiple CU 301 pump power
cables are run parallel in wiring trays or conduit and
less than 25-30 cm apart, the possibility for undesired
communication between units exists. When this
occurs, intermittent or continuous "No contact" is
typically seen. Other unexpected errors may also be
seen.
