![]() ![]() In above with the single center light setting the outlet/stopping pressure is 52psi. This is the Grundfos recommended setting for the Internal Pressure Tank listed in the Grundfos SCALA2 Instructions at the bottom of page 13 - 70% of the outlet pressure or stoping pressure. This will not only save energy by eliminating the demand of constant start/stop cycling due to ice makers, drinking water treatment systems, turning faucets on/off, leaks, etc, it will also extend the life of the SCALA2. The SCALA2 operating WITH the External Pressure Tank - the SCALA2 cycled on/off EVERY 2 HOURS.Įven though the entire capacity of the pressure tank is not used - this is due to the SCALA2's pressure range of 10psi - the pressure tank addition makes a significant difference. Opened faucet, let 8 ounces of water per minute go down the sink drain. TEST #2 - SCALA2 WITH EXTERNAL PRESSURE TANK: With the SCALA2 operating WITHOUT the External Pressure Tank - the SCALA2 cycled on/off EVERY 1-1/2 minutes. TEST #1- SCALA2 WITHOUT EXTERNAL PRESSURE TANK: The following tests were performed to show the the benefit utilizing the External Pressure Tank Turn on the SCALA2, press single center light, this starts SCALA2 at 42psi, stops it at 52psi. Fill the empty External Pressure Tank to 42psi^ see footnote. ![]() Fill the SCALA2 Internal Pressure Tank to 36psi* see footnote.Ģ. The SCALA2 utilizes a 10psi pressure range between starting and stoping.ĭo the following 2 steps with the SCALA2 turned off and no pressure on the system:ġ. This is a example utilizing an External Pressure Tank in conjunction with a SCALA2 Grundfos SCALA2 Water Pump with External Pressure Tank ![]()
