What does a tank do?
Water bladder tanks are tanks which contain a rubber bladder that is filled with either water or air. The majority of water bladder tanks have water-filled bladders. When a water faucet is turned on or a toilet is flushed, the water is piped in from the water tank. As the water pressure and air pressure get low, the contacts on the pressure switch click together. The pressure switch sends an electrical current to the water pump which causes the water pump to kick on and pipe water back into the water bladder tank. The amount of time it takes for the pressure switch to click on depends upon the size of the water bladder tank. The larger the water bladder tank, the longer it will be before the pressure switch starts to deliver electrical current to the water pump.

What is a water pressure switch?
A water pressure switch is commonly used to control a well pump. The switch is installed at the pressure tank and when water goes out of the tank pressure drops . When pressure gets to 30 psi that's usually the setting for the switch to activate the pump. The pump will come on and run for 2-5 minutes replenishing the tank to 50 psi then the switch will turn it off. (some systems are 40-60, but 30-50 is common)
