Well System Diagram

1	Check Valve Located at the top of the pump, it prevents backflow into the pump and hold the head of water in the system.
2	Brass Rope Adapter Connects the Pitless Adapter and the Submersible Pump with Safety Rope.
3	IDEAL Clamps All-stainless steel clamps for dependable connections between Pipe and Insert Fittings or Torque Arrestor.
4	Heat Shrink Splice Kit For waterproof electric cable splices in submersible pump installations.
5	Torque Arrestor Installed directly above Submersible Pump to protect pump and well components from starting torque damage.
6	Safety Rope A safety line from the top of the well to the pump.
7	Cable Tie Fastens Cable to Drop Pipe.
8	Cable Guard Protects submersible cable wires from abrading against sides of well. Two styles available: Self-clamping or Snap-in.
9	Pitless Adapter provides a watertight, sanitary, removable connection between the pump and the house. Installed in the casing below the frost line to prevent freezing.

10	Brass Insert Fitting Provides a connection between poly pipe and pipe thread of Pitless Adapter.	15	Drain Valve For easy draining of the system.	20	SQUARE D Safety Switch for electric control and distribution to the pump.
11	Watertight Well Cap Inner gasket compresses to outside diameter of casing to provide a watertight seal. Top of cap removes easily to access well for service.	16	Brass Nipple Male threads allow attachment of Pressure Switch to Tank Tee.	21	Motor Minder Adjustable, solid state control that monitors system load conditions to protect pump motor from dry well, loss of flow, rapid cycling, slow recovery, air lock, and locked rotor problems.
12	Well Seal Used in above-ground installations to provide a positive seal inside casing.	17	Relief Valve Protects against pressure buildup. Should be used on any system where the pump could develop greater pressure than the maximum rating of the system.	22	Lightning Arrestor Protects pump motor & controls from voltage surges caused by lightning, switching loads, and power line interference.
13	Check Valve On pump installations, a Check Valve installed near the tank inlet holds water in the tank when the pump is idle.	18	Pressure Gauge Measures water pressure in Pressure Tank.	23	Ball Valve Acts as a shutoff valve on the supply line from the tank to the house.
14	Tank Tee Connects water line from pump to pressure tank and service line from tank to house. Taps are provided to accept Pressure Switch, Pressure Gauge, Drain Valve, Relief Valve, Snifter Valve, etc.	19	Pressure Switch Signals the pump to start when the water system drops to a preset low pressure, and to stop when the high pressure mark is reached.	24	Water Filter A point-of-entry, whole-house filter that removes rust particles, sand, etc. from supply water.
