Introduction, Features, Applications and Advantages of High Pressure Water Pumps

Be it our home, a manufacturing plant, or a factory, a commercial complex like a mall, a hospital, or a hotel, low pressure of water, especially high-up in the buildings, can be very frustrating and daunting while completing everyday tasks. A pressure booster pump is an easiest and fastest way to improve water pressure and flow.

A water pressure booster pump or high pressure water pump increases the water flow and pressure from low. These pressure booster pumps are ideal for high-rise buildings where water flow can see a drop while traveling upward. These pumps provide the required extra boost to bring water pressure to the desired level, from a storage tank to all the way up in a high-rise building or a manufacturing facility.

Causes for low water pressure• Plumbing issues – Aging infrastructure cannot support the rising demand• Source of water – The farther your building is from the water source, the flow may see a dip• Height of the building – The higher your building is, the flow of water can dip

So, in all these cases we need to boost the water pressure and flow with a high-pressure water booster pump.

Components of a high pressure water pumpPressure booster pump is fitted with two identical horizontal stainless-steel pump sets connected in parallel and mounted on a skid configured with manifolds, valves, tank, pressure switches and a pump controller.

High pressure water pumps controlled and optimized with Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs)These pumps or systems work with a variable frequency drive, which helps offer a soft start to the system, saving it from any damage due to sudden fluctuations in the water flow and removing the need to have a back-up pump as well. For industrial purposes especially, it is important for the system to be robust and sturdy to withstand variations in the demand, since it may not always be possible to forecast the demand. Having a VFD also helps save power consumption and energy bills. We can safely say that fitting our water booster system with VFDs helps maximize its efficiency.

Features of a high pressure water pump• Remote monitoring, problem diagnosis and flagging• On and off based on set water flow parameters and water consumption set points

Various applications of a high pressure water pump• Housing colonies, townships, etc.• High-rise buildings, hotels, hospitals, IT Parks, schools, etc.• Public recreation places like water parks, fountains, golf courses, etc.• Irrigation• Fire fighting• HVAC• Water treatment and RO filtration systems• Industrial applications in pharma, automotive, textile, etc.

Benefits of a high pressure water pump• Can be used in a variety of applications, across residential, commercial and industrial premises• Low maintenance• Low cost of ownership• Assured constant flow of water in pipes• Reduced energy consumption and energy bills• Compact in size and hence easy to install• No need for constant manual vigil because of the system being controlled and monitored smartly• Advance notification for any trouble in the functioning due to remote intelligent monitoring• Highly efficient and reliable
