Description
High-Performance 2.1 Gallon Inline Pressure Tank for Booster and Constant Pressure Systems
Product Overview
The Flexcon PJR-6 is a compact 2.1-gallon inline pressure tank that is designed to stabilize system pressure and reduce pump cycling in compact booster and constant pressure systems. This inline booster pump pressure tank is commonly installed in residential irrigation applications, shallow well systems, and centrifugal pump configurations for reliable water delivery.
Quick Specs:
- Capacity: 2.1 Gallons
- Maximum Pressure: 125 PSI
- Connection Size: 3/4" NPT Stainless Steel
- Pre-Charge: Factory set to 28 PSI
- Certification: NSF 61 Certified
Key Features of Flexcon PJR-6 Jet-Rite 2 Inline Pressure Tank
- This NSF-certified pressure tank features a 100% butyl rubber diaphragm that ensures maximum air and water separation.
- The water chamber includes a virgin copolymer polypropylene liner that prevents water from touching the internal steel shell.
- The system connection uses a reinforced 3/4" stainless steel NPT fitting that resists corrosion in harsh environments.
- The exterior features a 16-gauge cold-rolled steel shell finished with appliance-quality powder coat paint for indoor or outdoor use.
- The brass air valve includes a secure O-ring seal to prevent air loss and maintain the factory pre-charge.
- Unlike traditional vertical pressure tanks, the PJR-6 is designed for direct inline installation within system piping. This allows for compact installation and is commonly used in space-restricted systems or manifold-based configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a pressure switch included with this tank or manifold kit?
No. Pressure switches are not included and must be selected separately based on your system requirements.
Does the tank come pre-charged?
Yes, the Flexcon PJR-6 ships from the factory with a standard pre-charge of 28 PSI.
How should the tank pre-charge be set?
The tank's air pre-charge must always be set exactly 2 PSI below your pressure switch's cut-in (turn-on) setting while the tank is completely empty of water.
What is the difference between total volume and drawdown?
Total volume (2.1 gallons) is the physical size of the empty tank. Drawdown (e.g., 0.8 gallons at 20/40 PSI) is the actual amount of usable water the tank stores and delivers between pump cycles.
Can this tank be installed outdoors?
Yes, this tank features an appliance-quality powder coat finish that resists external corrosion and UV damage, making it suitable for outdoor installation.
Is this tank safe for drinking water?
Yes, it is an NSF 61 certified pressure tank. The internal 100% butyl rubber diaphragm and polypropylene liner ensure your drinking water never touches the metal tank walls.
What type of connection does this tank use?
It features a highly durable 3/4-inch stainless steel NPT connection that prevents corrosion and cross-threading during installation.
Does this tank require regular maintenance?
The sealed diaphragm design is mostly maintenance-free and prevents waterlogging. However, it is recommended to check the air pre-charge annually to ensure optimal system performance.
