WELL-X-TROL®Professional
revolutionizes
the industry
WELL-X-TROL®Professional redefined the industry with its advanced engineering and innovative product design including the pre-pressurized well tank, sealed-in air charge, and unique water chamber design. With proven performance since 1963, WELL-X-TROL
Professional continues to deliver unparalleled results making it the most trusted choice of professionals in today’s market.WELL-X-TROL Professional offers many unique features that result in consistent, reliable performance, including design elements that prevent tank corrosion and reduce wear and tear on the well pump.
Features and Benefits
Exclusive butyl diaphragm, along with the 100% corrosion resistant virgin polypropylene liner, are secured by a positive hoop ring seal for added strength and reliability. This totally integrated system outperforms other types of water chamber designs.
The stainless steel air valve is welded rather than threaded to prevent loss of air pressure.
The finest quality, custom mill steel is used in the deep drawn dome for extra strength while keeping tank weight to a minimum.
More choices mean more flexibility
WELL-X-TROL Professional offers more options and sizes than any other well tank manufacturer, including both
vertical and horizontal designs, and sizes ranging from 2 gallons to 119 gallons so you can configure a system that’s right for any application.
First on Industry Safety
Standards
WELL-X-TROL Professional tanks were the first to meet all industry standards for quality and safety. The butyl diaphragm in all models meets EPA requirements for potable water as defined in the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1986. The entire tank which includes the virgin polypropylene liner, butyl diaphragm, and acceptance fittings for a 100% corrosion resistant water reservoir is listed by NSF International Standard 61.
Advanced
design features
continue to set industry standards
■Stainless steel air valve is welded in position rather than mechanically threaded to prevent loss of air pressure and to minimize stress on the well’s pump system. It also carries a tamper-evident warning label.
■Deep-drawn steel domes offer twice the strength of rolled steel while minimizing weight.
■Unique positive hoop ring seal secures diaphragm and liner for added strength and reliability.
■Heavy duty butyl diaphragm features seamless construction for uniform strength and flexibility. It conforms exactly to the shell configuration without stretching, creasing, or forming bubbles or corners that could trap water or sediment. Butyl is the best known elastomer to prevent air loss.
■Heavy duty butyl diaphragm is extremely resistant to bacterial growth and meets FDA requirements for potable water supply.
■Virgin polypropylene liner provides a 100% corrosion resistant, non-metallic rigid water reservoir that is listed by NSF International Standard 61.
■Stainless-steel system connection withstands aggressive water.
■Exclusive welding process eliminates interior rough spots and sharp edges which prevent damage to the diaphragm and liner.
■Each finished tank is pressure tested for safety.
■Each finished tank is pre-pressurized to the most common pump cut-in pressure.
■Exterior appliance-like finish looks attractive while protecting the tank from the elements.

esp(Effective System Protection):
maximum system output with
minimal pump starts
The ESP sizing procedure covers modern residential water-use habits, increased off-peak demands and the general increase in water use that have occurred over the past twenty-five years. ESP sizing is designed to reduce pump wear and tear, and reduce energy consumption by keeping pump starts to a minimum.
Choose the amount of protection you need.
ESP I: Tank selection is based on approximately one minute minimum pump running time. This is recommended for pumps up to 3/4 H.P.
ESP II: Tank selection is based on approximately two minute minimum pump running time. This is recommended for 3/4 H.P. or larger pumps.

tank operation
time-tested design
WELL-X-TROL Professional1has a sealed in air chamber that is pre-pressurized before it leaves our factory. Air and water do not mix.
2When the pump starts, water enters the WELL-X-TROL Professional. Only usable water is stored.
When the pressure3in the chamber reaches cut-out pressure, the pump stops. The WELL-X-TROL Professional is filled.
When water is demanded, pressure in the air chamber forces water into the system. Since WELL-X-TROL Professional consistently delivers the maximum usable water, minimum
4pump starts are assured.

The AMTROL
®
expansion tank may be placed in any convenient position
within the mechanical room (or building). If multiple tanks are installed,
they should all be on the same level.
Point of Connection
Unlike a conventional tank, the EXTROL
®
sealed air cushion does not
require replenishment so DO NOT connect to an air separator or other air
collection device.
As with any expansion tank, it is recommended that the EXTROL
®
be
connected to the suction side of the pump. This will prevent the pump
head from becoming subtractive which may result in entry of air and vapor
formation at high points in the system.
By connecting the EXTROL
®
on the boiler return, displacement of coolest
system water into tank is ensured reducing energy waste.
Low pressure drop components such as air separators and boilers may be
placed between point of connection and pump suction if desired. System
design will dictate the feasibility of this.
Natural convection losses and the entry of air into tanks are eliminated by
connection to the side or underside of main pipe. The piping should be pitched
up and away from the EXTROL
®
to eliminate any potential air traps.
Installation
THIS ProdUCT MUST BE INSTALLEd BY A
QUALIFIEd ProFESSIoNAL.
1.
Note location of system connection, air charge valve and drain
connection on tank.
2. Remove the plug or pipe cap from the system connection.
3. Remove the 1 1/2” NPT plug covering the air charge valve.
4. Before making any connection to the tank, check the tank and air charge
(use an accurate pressure gauge). The air pressure must be equal to
the minimum system pressure at the tank location.
5. After making sure the air charge is correct, replace the 1 1/2” plug over
the air valve.

6. The EXTROL
®
may now be piped to the system (use the suggested
EXTROL
®
piping diagrams on the next page).
Amtrol Pressure Tank Ca17002 User Manual Online
7. Using the table below, select appropriate pipe size. Connection to
each EXTROL
®
must have a lock shield gate valve and union to allow
isolation and removal if required. Make up and fill valves, whether
manual or automatic, should be tied into the connecting line. This will
ensure that pump operation will not affect valve operation.
operational Limits
Maximum Operating Pressure: As stamped on nameplate
Maximum Operating Temperature: 240 °F
Minimum Operating Temperature: 35°F (non-glycol application)
If unit is being installed in a glycol system where minimum temperatures
fall below 35°F, contact the AMTROL technical service department at
(401) 535-1216.
operating Instructions
1. Check the expansion tank pre-charge before the system is filled with
water. The charge is 12 psig unless noted otherwise on the tank label.
Check to make sure this is the correct pre-charge pressure specified
for the system.
2. If the tank pre-charge pressure needs to be changed on a dry system
follow the following procedure:
a.
Check the expansion tank air pressures at the pre-charge
Amtrol Pressure Tank Ca17002 User Manual Guide
connection with an accurate tire type pressure gauge. The
pre-charge connection is the same kind of connection found on
automobile tires.
b. If the pressure is low, charge the tank with nitrogen gas or with
oil free compressed air. Check the pressure frequently during this
process as you would when filling a tire with air.
3. If, after the system has been filled with water and operating, it is
found that the expansion tank pre-charge must be changed use the
following procedure:
a. Turn off the heat source and allow the system water to cool to
ambient temperature.
b. Close the lock-shield valve in the tank-to-system piping.
c. Open the drain valve to empty the water from the tank.
d. Check the tank air pressure at the pre-charge connection with an
accurate tire type air gauge.
e. Refer to 2b above.
f. Close the drain valve, open the lock-shield valve and turn on the
heat source.
g. Relock the lock-shield valve.

dANGEr: Excessive pressure can cause tank to explode.
Exercise care when filling a tank with air so the pressure
does not exceed that required or does not exceed the
working pressure of the tank as stamped on the nameplate.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in serious personal
injury or death and property damage.
IMPorTANT: Expansion tank cannot be properly
air charged other than at ambient temperature.
