Table 7 — Maximum Loop Volume Limits
LEGEND
NOTE: Max loop volume is based on typical system of 12 psig and
30 psig of min/max pressures, and 100 F mean temperature. If the
volume in the system is greater than the limits listed, then extra
expansion tank volume must be added to the system.
Pump Modification/Trimming (Units with Factory-Installed
Hydronic Package) — Since the pumps are constant speed,
the only way to obtain greater flow with a given pump/impeller
is to decrease system head. This will allow the pump to “ride”
its curve to the right, resulting in increased flow. If greater flow
is necessary, look at opening the balance valve. Also, verify
that the strainer is clean, and that no unnecessary system resis-
tance is present, such as partially closed isolation valves.
Increasing system resistance by closing the balancing valve
will force the pump to “ride” its curve to the left, resulting in
less flow. Although this does reduce power consumption
slightly, it may not be the desirable method of reducing the
flow, especially if a rather large reduction is needed.
