Flojet Accumulator Pressure

[midatlanticpower]

What is the pressure supposed to be set at on the accumulator used for roof pump? This is one of the dual pump systems from Paul. Also does anyone else have a problem with the accumulator leaking where the 2 parts bolt together?

How long ago did you purchase. Eventually the bleach will deteriorate the inside. If it's been recent I can work in getting yours inspected for defect.

Bill I bought it last September. Its rinsed after everyjob. It came on the twim pump system. It started seeping about a month after I got it and now its covered with residue and is leaking at the valve also. Let me know what you think.

Not sure what happened. What pressure do you keep in the accumulator Doug? I wasn't sure if it lost air pressure in there since chem is seeping out. It should work the same way an expansion tank does at home. I haven't payed attention but Im sure its cycling more often also
