Question: Why is an annual check of the pre-charge pressure in the integrated pressure tank of the SCALA2 recommended?

Performing an annual check of the pre-charge pressure in the SCALA2’s integrated pressure tank is essential for optimal performance. During operation, the pump will stop and start, causing the membranes within the tank to move. This enables the air molecules to escape, and over time, this will reduce the pressure. It’s crucial to ensure the pre-charge pressure is set correctly during installation, ideally at 70% of the setpoint value/desired discharge pressure, never exceeding it. Failure to maintain proper pre-charge pressure can lead to issues such as noisy operation, fluctuating pressure, increased risk of damage, and higher energy consumption.
