The air charge in a bladder tank should be 2 PSI below the pressure switch ON setting. In other words if the pressure switch is a 30-50, then the tank air should be 28. -If the pressure switch is the higher 40-60, then the tank air is 38. These tanks are all charged at the top and you can check air pressure there also.

Check the manual or look online for the manufacturers specifications. This IS important that you do not over inflate the bladder.
If deep well pressure isfrom 48 to 68 lbswhat should the air tank pressure be set at?
Generally the pressure in the tank air bladder should be 2 psi below the water pressure switch kick in (pump turn on) point. In this example of 48 to 68 Lbs the air bladder pressure should be 46 psi. This pressure should be measured with the tank empty of water, that is to say NO water pressure applied. NEVER over pressurize the air bladder - it would be better to under pressurize if in doubt. Some tank manufacturers may recommend a different PSI differential so check with the tank literature or the manufacturer.
How much pressure should my water tank bladder have?
The water pressure depends on the residual air pressure in the tank. Normally it should be between 30 -50-psi. Tank air pressure is important, it should be about 27-29 when water is nearly empty.

How much pressure should a water bladder tank hold?
It depends on which pressure switch you have. The total pressure with a 60-80 switch is about 84 psi.
What is the recommended amount of air pressure that should be in a bladder tank?
The recommended amount of air pressure in a bladder tank is typically around 2 psi below the cut-in pressure of the water pump.
What do you do if the bladder to your water tank sagged and is blocking the inlet to the tank?
In this case the only proper thing is to get a new bladder tank.
Will it hurt to replace a regular galvanized water holding tank with a bladder filled one?
bladder tanks are much better for the pump and will be fine as a replacement.
