System Working Pressure

This calculator helps predict the working pressure of a proposed Vertex aeration system.  AirStations and placement depths, valves, fittings and BottomLine friction loss all combine to create system back pressure. Compare your system working pressure to the compressor's rated maximum continuous pressure. System working s pressure.  System working  pressure should not exceed 80% of the compressor's maximum continuous pressure to allow for water level fluctuation, normal wear and increased water depth due to muck reduction.

1  This calculation is valid only for standard Vertex aeration systems equipment using
Vertex CoActive or XL AirStations.
2  Pressure and volume output from a compressor varies with altitude. If your waterbody is located at a high altitude call us for corrected compressor performance data and an aeration system recommendation.
