Publication number: 20230086225Abstract: A well management system provides Internet-enabled monitoring, configuration, and control of a well system that may include a pump and a pressure tank. A controller is operatively coupled to the pump. The controller controls the pump based on pressure readings from a pressure sensor to maintain a configured pressure range within the system. The controller can communicate with a management system via a communications network. The management system is further in communication with one or more client devices, which may be associated with a homeowner, a service provider, a manufacturer, or the like. Via the management system, the client devices can receive information from the controller and send commands to the controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2022Publication date: March 23, 2023Inventors: CHRISTOPHER A. VAN HAAREN, MICHAEL COGLIATI, BRADY ERICKSON

Patent number: 11536262Abstract: A controller for a well system automatically profiles the system, detects a pre-charge of an associated pressurized storage tank, and automatically configures pressure-based control of a pump based on the detected pre-charge. The controller determines the pre-charge of the pressurized storage tank while the tank is connected to the system. While monitoring a system pressure, the controller activates the pump to initiate a filling operation of the pressurized storage tank. The controller analyzes a change in system pressure during the filling operation to determine the pre-charge of the pressurized storage tank. With the pre-charge determined, the controller automatically configures pressure settings for pressure-based control of the pump.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2018Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: AMTROL LICENSING INC.Inventors: Christopher A.

Patent number: 10807028Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for removing air and particles, such as dirt, from a fluid which includes, inter alia, an elongated pressure vessel that has a vessel wall that defines an interior chamber and a vertical axis for the apparatus. Inlet and outlet ports are formed in the vessel wall, the inlet port allowing fluid to enter the interior chamber and the outlet port allowing conditioned fluid to exit the interior chamber of the pressure vessel. A plurality of concentrically arranged cylindrical mesh screen elements are positioned within the interior chamber that release entrained air from the fluid entering the interior chamber. Additionally, a cylindrical tube is positioned within the concentrically arranged mesh screen elements for removing particles from the fluid entering the interior chamber. In certain embodiments the apparatus includes a magnetic particle collector.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2017Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: AMTROL LICENSING INC.Inventor: Michael Cogliati

Patent number: 9777880Abstract: Disclosed is an absorber system for absorbing pressure shocks and fluid volume shocks in a fluid system. In particular, the absorber system includes a housing with a joint for insertion within a fluid system, wherein the housing interior is in fluid communication with fluid in the fluid system. As such, when a pressure and/or fluid volume shock is developed within the fluid system, fluid is forced into the housing via the joint. A membrane is disposed within the housing in such a way that the fluid impacts the membrane which, in response, flexes to absorb and control the pressure and/or fluid volume shock within the fluid system. The absorber system, thus, controls pressure and/or fluid volume shock within a system and can prevent water hammer and other problems which can result from the development of pressure and/or fluid volume shock.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2016Date of Patent: October 3, 2017Assignee: AMTROL Licensing Inc.Inventors: Christopher A.
