Applications / question about wiring the csv
« on: July 02, 2022, 11:37:22 PM »
   My issue- due to the severe drought in Calif. the recovery rate of the water table isn't enough to refill the tank to shut off the pump. So my pump keeps running and loses its prime also. I now have to turn off the pump, wait a little, prime the line, and turn on the pump again, which will finish refilling and shut off as normal. This doesn't happen normally, but it was an issue last summer for about 3 weeks.

     My system- 56' well, foot valve and venturi/ejector @ 52', water table @ 22' normally, 2 line 220v jet pump, 1100 gallon storage tank with float switches, 2 pressure tanks, and a booster pump controlled by its own pressure switch. The jet pump is controlled by the 2 float switches. There is a pressure switch on the jet pump but it doesn't turn it on or off.

   Your wiring diagram shows a connection to the pressure switch. My pressure switch has nothing to do with turning the jet pump on or off, as it is controlled by the float switches. How would I wire it to shut off the jet pump? Basically bypassing the float switches, specifically the upper float switch which turns off the pump. Or would wiring the cycle sensor to the switch do that?
