24 L Vertical Steel Pressure Tank, 8 Bar, EPDM Bladder

Description

Overview

This 24 litre pressure tank stores a small reserve of water under pressure, so your booster pump does not start every time a tap is opened. The result is steadier pressure at the tap and far fewer motor starts, which is what wears a pump out. Water sits in a replaceable EPDM bladder inside a steel shell rated to 8 bar, and the tank stands upright on its own base. It is the compact choice in our range of pump controllers and VSD accessories.

At 24 litres the usable drawdown is modest, so this size suits a single outlet, a small house or a garden-tap booster. For a household with several bathrooms or an irrigation line, step up to a larger vessel.

Key features

• Capacity: 24 litres
• Vertical design that stands on its own base
• Steel tank with an EPDM bladder that keeps water and air apart
• Bladder is replaceable, and replacement bladders are available separately
• Maximum working pressure: 8 bar
• Reduces pump cycling and softens pressure swings on the line

Where it works

A tank this size belongs next to a small booster pump on a Gauteng townhouse, a Limpopo farmhouse tap line or a lodge outbuilding fed from a storage tank. Pump short-cycling usually shows up first on low-demand lines, and this vessel is cheap insurance against it. Installers fit it with a pressure switch and gauge on a five-way fitting. For bigger demand see the 60 L vertical steel pressure tank or the 36 L vertical or horizontal pressure tank.
