Product Description
High-Performance Residential Well Water Storage Tank Featuring Antimicrobial Protection and Corrosion-Resistant Steel Construction
Product Overview
The Flexcon WR-60R is a hydro-pneumatic pressure tank for residential and light commercial water well applications. This 20-gallon pressure tank stabilizes system pressure, reduces pump cycling, and provides essential water storage. It is commonly installed in basements or crawl spaces as part of a complete pressure tank setup.
Featuring Flexcon’s advanced CAD-2 diaphragm technology, the WR-60R permanently separates air and water inside the tank to prevent waterlogging, reduce internal wear, and extend system life.

Key Features of Flexcon WR-60R Well-Rite Pressure Tank
The tank is constructed from 16-gauge solid steel for superior durability.
A silver-ion-infused antimicrobial liner helps eliminate possible water-borne health hazards.
The CAD-2 diaphragm technology combines a 100% butyl rubber bladder tank design with a copolymer polypropylene lower water chamber.
A patented, welded stainless steel connection ensures separate air and water seals to prevent leaks.
The condensation-reducing design virtually eliminates external corrosion.
An appliance-quality urethane paint finish stands up to damp basement or crawl space environments.
A steel clench ring regulates movement and prevents the diaphragm from rubbing against the tank wall.
Tank Installation Kit Options (Adjustable Pressure Switch Included)
The Flexcon WR-60R is available in the following options:
Tank Only
Includes the 20-gallon Flexcon WR-60R pressure tank only. No pressure switch, gauge, or installation fittings are included.
Tank with Brass Install Kit
Includes the WR-60R tank paired with a durable brass tank tee assembly for reliable well system installations, corrosion-resistant, and easy to service.
Tank with Stainless Steel Install Kit
Includes the WR-60R tank paired with a 304 stainless steel tank tee assembly with pressure switch, gauge, relief valve, union, and hose bib.
Each tank install kit includes:
Adjustable pressure switch
75 PSI pressure relief valve
Pressure gauge
Union connection
Hose bib
Lead-free fittings (brass or stainless steel, depending on selection)
Important Compatibility Note:
The pressure switch included with the installation kit comes factory pre-set to 30/50 PSI and is fully adjustable. It can be set to other common residential pressure settings such as:
20/40 PSI
30/50 PSI
40/60 PSI
This adjustability ensures proper integration with your existing well pump system and eliminates the need to purchase a different pressure switch rating separately.

Systems requiring an NSF 61 certified pressure tank for potable water safety.
Pressure booster applications.
Irrigation systems.
Reverse osmosis systems.
Common Pressure System Problems This Tank Helps Solve
If You're Experiencing:
Short cycling occurs when the pump turns on and off too frequently.
Inconsistent water pressure at the tap.
Water sputtering due to air in the lines.
Premature wear on your well pump motor.
Concerns about water hygiene in your storage tank.
The Flexcon Well-Rite 20-gallon pressure tank uses CAD-2 diaphragm technology to efficiently separate air and water, stabilize pressure, and reduce pump cycling to extend equipment life.
Key Benefits of this Well Rite Pressure Tank

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the pressure switch adjustable, or is it locked at 30/50 PSI?
The pressure switch included with the Tank with Stainless Steel Install Kit option is fully field-adjustable.
It ships with a factory default setting of 30/50 PSI, but it can be adjusted to other common residential pressure ranges, including 20/40 PSI and 40/60 PSI, to match your well system requirements.
Does this tank come pre-charged?
Yes. The tank ships are pre-charged to 38 PSI. The pre-charge is adjustable and should be set 2 PSI below your pressure switch cut-in setting before installation.
How should I set the tank pre-charge?
Set the tank pre-charge to 2 PSI below your pressure switch cut-in setting.
Examples:
20/40 system → set tank to 18 PSI
30/50 system → set tank to 28 PSI
40/60 system → set tank to 38 PSI
Always check the air pressure with the system powered off and the tank fully drained before adjusting.
What is CAD-2 diaphragm technology?
It is a patented design featuring a 100% butyl diaphragm and a copolymer polypropylene lower water chamber for maximum air and water separation.
Is the water connection corrosion-resistant?
Yes, it features a patented, welded stainless steel water connection.
Can this tank be used outdoors?
Suitable for indoor installation in dry or protected environments.
How much water does the tank actually hold?
The total tank volume is 20 gallons, but the drawdown (usable water) depends on your pressure switch setting (e.g., 6.8 gallons for a 30/50 switch).
What is the warranty on the WR-60R?
The tank comes with a 5-year limited warranty.
Free shipping. Usually ships same or next day.
