    Description
    PAX30-150 Taco Bladder Expansion Tank. Acceptance Volume: 5 gal, 19 liter. Taco PAX Series bladder type tanks provide permanent separation of air and water. All wetted components are built of FDA-approved materials. Available in 11 models to meet all your potable water needs. They feature a removable heavy-duty Butyl rubber bladder, fabricated steel shell designed and constructed per ASME Section VIII Div 1. Each is factory pre-charged to job specifications. Standard bladder: 125 PSIG (862 kPa). Optional bladder: 150 PSIG (1,034 kPa).
    Partial Acceptance Captive Air Bladder Expansion Tank Taco PAX partial acceptance bladder Captive Air expansion tanks are applied in commercial, institutional and industrial applications for the control of pressure in hydronic systems. PAX bladder tanks use a field replaceable bladder to permanently separate the air and water. This permanent separation allows the tank to be precharged on the air side to the minimum operating or fill pressure.  The precharge eliminates the many gallons of water typically used to compress the atmospheric pressure found in a plain steel tank application. A reduction in the required tank size when incorporating a Captive Air expansion results in tank sizes of up to 80% smaller when compared to air cushion or plain steel tanks.  In a PAX bladder tank the partial acceptance bladder is not attached to the tank wall like a diaphragm tank. Rather it sits in the bottom of the expansion tank utilizing an internal assembly connecting to the stainless steel system connection located on the top of the tank.  The partial  acceptance bladder inside the tank operates very much like a balloon. It is critical to the sizing of any partial acceptance tank that both the bladder acceptance volume and total tank volume be adequate to accept the net system expansion volume without exceeding the pressure limitations of the system design.   Taco is pleased to offer a selection app for the selection of these styles of tanks.   Expanded water flows into the inside of the bladder.  The air/precharge is on the outside of the bladder between the bladder and the tank.  As a result no water is in contact with the tank wall minimizing corrosion. In a partial acceptance bladder tank the bladder is of limited acceptance volume and does not stretch
