Water pumps

problem with the pressure switch of a surface pump

Goodnight. I have a hydropneumatic pump, which one of the power cables of the pressure switch is heated and melts. I thought it was the loose screw that holds the cable, and cut the molten cable and connect it again, tightening the screw well. but a month it is warming up again, why is this anomaly and how do I solve this problem? greeting

Hi. Once there is an overheating at one point, its continuity is no longer the same. What you can do is to clean the area well by passing a small steel brush to remove all the carbon or oxide that it might have on its surface. The other option is to sand well and solder the cable. regards

It is good to sand and clean the contact or the terminal of the cable connection, but for greater safety you can put conductive paste on the cable and thus adjust the screw well and with that it will be more than enough to eliminate overheating in that area.

Unfortunately, the pressure switch screw that held the cable together melted and cannot be removed, the pressure switch being unusable. I put another pressure switch on him but he doesn't want to turn off the pump, the pressure switch is used, he moved the screws and does nothing, the pump doesn't send more than
30 pounds. What I do is turn it off manually. thanks.

Well maybe the pressure switch is not of that range

If the pressure switches are the same, you can exchange the contact blocks from one to another or also exchange the springs. Before unscrewing to change the springs, count the turns you have to return them to the same on the other pressure switch and look at the clock after changing springs that the pressure is between 40 pounds high which is when you turn off and 20 pounds low It is when you turn on to return to 40 pounds. It may also be that the pressure switch works between 25 max and 15 min or also in atmospheres between 1.8 max and 1.1 min I hope I have helped my friend Jose ', I don't know if you have already solved, I have not been in the forum for personal problems, so what I can say is that you upload photos of the new pressure switch to see how it is. In any case, if it has 1 large central spring and a small lateral spring, the center one controls the on and off pressure; the small side controls the differential. It means that only when moving the large pipeline that the required pressure can be achieved. the minimum also goes down and had to turn on when going down to 10 or 15 pounds. If it doesn't turn on, then unscrew the smaller screw to remove differential pressure and make it turn on. It is a test game until you can adjust the pressures to turn on and off wherever we want. Note that the differential screw is only the one that regulates the distance between start and stop but the large spring is the one that regulates the minimum and maximum pressures. I hope I have been clear now

I bought a new pressure switch brand furnas, with a metal screw and a plastic screw, 20-40 t I wanted to set it to 30 - 15 and I can't do it when it stops at 30 it doesn't want to turn on and when I make the garment it doesn't want to turn off. How should I move the screws? ? greeting

Dear friend Elio, if you say that the thin screw adjusts the differential and the thick screw the pressure of high and low at the same time, as you say that if it does not turn on I must unscrew the thin one, if I do it less it will turn on. I think that if it does not turn on, should I turn the screw to the right so that the pressure increases and can turn on and if it does not turn off at 30 pounds, what do I do? greeting

I am glad that you already solved, as I wrote in the other chat with the other question, I was absent from the forum due to problems in the country with everything
