INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Pre-Installation 1. Visually inspect the Surge-Trol for any damage. If damage exists return product for replacement. 2. Remove air cap. 3. For applications with pump start-up creating water hammer adjust the factory pre-charge setting to 15% below static pressure. 4. For applications with surge issues created by pump shut down adjust the factory pre-charge setting to 50% below static pressure. 5. For applications with quick closing valves, please consult manufacturer for tank location and pre-charge settings. (401) 535-1216. 6. Replace and tighten cap on air valve. If adjusting the pre-charge pressure higher than 55 PSIG the unit must be tied to the system immediately. Failure to do so could damage the bladder and void all warranties. Installation 1. The Surge-Trol should be installed as close to the offending fixture as possible in applications where there are issues with a quick closing valve. 2. The Surge-Trol should be installed as close to the pump as possible in surge applications. 3. Once the Surge-Trol is installed and the pre-charge adjusted properly, check for any leakage. Make repairs if necessary Maintenance 1. A qualified professional should check the complete system, including the Surge-Trol, yearly and more frequently as the system ages. Operation 1. The Surge-Trol is designed to provide surge protection as well as provide a cushion to prevent water hammer depending on its application. 2. Water temperature is not to exceed 240°F. or fall below 35°F. 3. The factory pre-charge setting is 25 PSIG and should only be adjusted at the time of the installation. 4. System velocity shall not exceed 22 fps.

NOTE: To convert cubic feet to gallons multiply by 7.481. NOTE: Set pre-charge pressure 50% below static pressure. Precise Sizing Example For Pump Shut-down Based On: Use: Pump = 100 GPM Pipe = 2” Steel Pipe; 1000 ft of pipe Static Pressure = 100 psig Max. Pressure = 150 psig Pre-charge Gas = Dry Air Tc = 2L = 2(1000) = 2000 = .444 a 4500 4500 Vv = Qss x Tc x 7.481 = 9.5 x .444 x 7.481 = 31.55 AF = 1 - ( P1 + 14.7)1/n = 1 - ( 64.7 )1/1.2 = .54 P2 + 14.7 164.7 Volume of Tank in Gallons = Vv = 31.55 = 58.4 AF .54 Recommendation = SPT-11 SG = Specific gravity of fluid: Water 1 Ethylene glycol 1.1 Propylene glycol 1.1 Glycerin 1.3 Qs = Fire pump flow rate in gpm Qss = Fire pump flow rate in feet per second L = Length of pipe in feet a = Speed of pressure wave in feet per second: Steel pipe 4500 ft/sec Cast iron = 4500 ft/s...
