Generated explanation

The illustration shows the pressure-tank and control assembly for a submersible well pump system. Water enters from the pump through the lower-left pipe, passes the tank connection and valve assembly, and flows toward the house through the right-hand riser, as indicated by arrows. A pressure gauge, drain valve, and relief valve are mounted at the tank piping. A pressure switch above the piping has electrical connections labeled to the pump and from the power source. A cutaway of the pressure tank shows water inside; no defects are indicated.
