3. The working properties of the accumulating hydraulic tank affect the generated head. The manufacturer specifies the lower and upper limit at which the pressure switch is activated. Usually a gauge is installed at the stations for monitoring.
4. Hydroaccumulator volume depends on water consumption. Thanks to the capacious tank, it is possible to reduce the number of on / off, which will have a positive effect on the service life. The most popular are models with a tank capacity of 20-25 liters. And large families prefer pumping stations with a 50 l hydroaccumulator.
