I recieved my tank with 100 psig presure, do I need to release the presure before using it?

If the tank is new it's most likely nitrogen. If the tank is used you need to determine what is in the tank. Use manifold and a pt chart. It's not OK to vent refrigerant.
1857824
Yes, it' just inert gas probably co2 or dry nitrogen and once its's emptied pull a vacum on the cylinderand your ready to go
1857825
Yes and put a Vacuum on it.It's just air more or less to check for leaks.It will cause you problems if you leave it in thereit's not Freon.
1857826
It's just dry nitrogen gas and venting is 100% legal.You should never leave a system or tank under a vacuum for any extended period of time. If there are any leaks present, it will draw moisture and other non-condensables into it hence the reason they pressurize the tank from the factory!

This is good stuff but I would not recommend using it in a gas tank. I ordered two and they came in a plastic bag. Problem is that one of them leaked out all the contents so I got half of what I ordered! Good luck to you.

What is really important is your psi Pressure machine. if yours is a gas pressure machine I do not recommend to use this, even if this one gun is a very high pressure. 1700psi.If your machine is over this limit or very close, it is better you do not use it. It could be damaged o broken

No make sure you set the temp up and let it sit in the tank 15 mins before you turn it on.

When i had mine installed the well man explained how the whole thing worked but that was a while back and I've forgot. He did set the PSI for a Max of 70 on mine. I do remember him saying something about setting it too high also. You can probably call your well man and he can explain it. Hope this helps.

A pressure gauge should have been included. I would contact Amazon and let them know the gauge was missing so they could send you one.

I just adjusted the variable flow valve till the material in the chamber just started to slightly agitate.Too much flow will break down the media and probably blow it out of the reactor and into your tank

According to the specifications shown, the tank is rated for 100 PSI, not 150. So no, in my opinion if you run higher air pressure in your compressor than 100, it would not be safe to couple-in this tank.

Tank is small but do not know know exact volume.(less than a gallon). I never had to adjust pre-charge pressure as I used it as is to prevent short cycling and it works fine as is. I assume pre-charge could be changed with air supply and air gage (not supplied).

The precharged tank has been presurized by the manufacture to work with a standard pressure switch. It eliminates the need to presurize the tank yourself. This particulars tank is precharged for a 40/60 pressure switch. Air can easily be released for the 30/50 switch or the 20/40 switch. All you need is an accurate tire air pressure gauge. It is also easy to charge a tank if you have an air compressor. The instructions that come with the tank will explain the process.

I believe it was pre charged. However, your pump should turn off automatically when the tank and your lines are pressurized. Mine does it in my camper.

This unit comes already pressurized. If you have an older unit, just use a bicycle air pump to increase the pressure inside. If there is a leak in the bladder, only option is to replace the tank. Note that I am not an expert on this matter - just expressing opinion from my experience.....best regards.

Do not know any way to estimate usage -- best suggestion would be to keep a backup cylinder at hand, or buy a gauge for your tank.

There isn't exactly a right or wrong when it comes to pressure tanks, you just want the tank to be appropriately sized and charged to the proper PSI (that is, the water pressure that you desire). This tank is considered to hold 82 gallons of water and is precharged to 40 PSI. You can lower the PSI by releasing air or raise the PSI by adding air with a compressor. The larger the tank the more water it can deliver before the pump kicks on to fill the tank. I hope this helps.

No, once filled the tank is under too much pressure. You would need a hose that can handle 800+ psi.

No - mine goes up to 90-100 psi and holds a full tank without losing pressure for days/weeks.

pre-charged has a captive bladder inside of the tank that holds an air charge to push the water out of the tank when you open a fauset ect. A standard tank does not have this bladder and will loose air and you have to keep pumping it up every so many months with a hand air pump !
