This is only a rough guide as there are factors to take into account such as variations in temperature, atmospheric pressure, altitude, etc.

Simply measure the distance vertically in metres from your outlet or tap to the bottom of the tank or to the tanks' outlet then multiply that height by 0.1 until you reach your required BAR pressure.

e.g 2 metres x 0.1 = 0.2 bar , 5 metres x 0.1 = 0.5 bar 20 metres x 0.1 = 2.0 bar

50 metres x 0.1 = 5.0 bar.

So you will need your tank to be a whopping 40 metres above the tap to create 4 BAR of pressure.

40 metres is actually around 3.923 bar so to be accurate set the height at 40.001 metres to attain a snip over 4.0 bar.

When is A Medical oxygen tank empty?

In general any pressurized gas container is "empty" when the pressure inside is equal to ambient air pressure. There is still gas in the container, but not enough pressure to expell the gas. Medical oxygen tanks should never be allowed to go below 200psi. The tank is considered empty at this point and should be replaced.

What is the difference between level switch and float valve?

The operation is similar but what they control are two very different things. A level switch, just like the word switch implies, either completes or breaks an electrical circuit when a certain condition is reached. This is similar to the mercury switch in most thermostats. When the ambient temperature reaches a certain point, the bimetal spring of the switch tilts one way and the mercury contained inside the glass tube moves toward one end or the other completing the appropriate electrical circuit to trigger the HVAC system to activate. When another point is reached, the mercury switch tips the other way and breaks the connection because the mercury is not at the opposite end of that tube.As for a float valve, it functions similarly but rather than making or breaking an electrical connection, it turns on or shuts off a valve that controls the flow of some substance. An example of this is the float valve that controls the filling of the water tank on the back of a toilet. When you hit the switch to flush the toilet, the flapper valve opens and stays open due to the pressure to keep it aloft by the water rushing by it to go out the hole that it usually seals. Once the water has decreased to a certain level at which there is not enough water to keep the flap up, it flops down and seals the breach. At this point, the float inside the tank is at its lowest point, so the water inlet from your plumbing is allowing the water to flow at its maximum rate. As the water level in the take rises, the float also rises which slowly closes the valve until such time the float is at its maximum level and completely shuts off the flow of water.I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me a line.

How does water pressure work?

Water pressure works based on the difference of altitudes or height. The height of the tank determines the amount of pressure that the water supply will have.


3 A tank with a flat bottom is filled with water to a height of 4 meters What is the pressure at any point at the bottom of the tank You can ignore atmospheric pressure when calculating your?

Since we are ignoring atmospheric pressure, the pressure at the bottom of the tank is given by p = dgh. Where d equals density, g is acceleration of gravity, and h is the height below the fluid surface. In this case, the density of water is 10^3 kg/m^3, the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2, and the height is 4 m. This means the pressure is 39.2 kPa.


Pressure in a pipe draining an elevated water tank depends on the height of the tank but does it also depend on how full the tank is?

Yes, the pressure in the pipe is dependant of the height of the column of water above the point you are considering.

Is gas gravity the same as specific gravity?

There is indeed a relationship between gravity and atmospheric pressure. Gravity attracts matter with mass, in this case gas. The atmosphere being a layer of gas, the stronger the gravity, the higher it's pressure. I if you seal gas in a tank, and increase its mass (by adding more gas) the pressure will increase. Now imagine that the tank is the earth, and gravity is exerting a down force on the gas... It's like water. Although it can't be compressed, water exerts pressure because of gravity; the deeper you go the higher the pressure. Now imagine the atmosphere pressure on Jupiter....


Why you want to set up a water tank higher than your house?

Water has the ability to maintain its level . The pressure of water pipe system increase with height , Thus for the easy flow of water in a pipe system , the water tanks are constructed at highest level in your houses.
