As the name
implies, water booster pumps boost the pressure
of water. These pumps can pressurize water
systems for a variety of applications, including
domestic use, for industrial processes, for
irrigation, for water treatment, and for moving
water to people and livestock.
Water booster pump stations can increase
waterline pressure, and help eliminate
inconsistent flow or pressure. They can fill a
water tower. Water pressure boosting pumps can
increase pressure from city mains, or from
private water systems. Pumps may be located
anywhere in the system to increase the pressure.
There are different types of water booster
pumps. End suction pumps can be suitable for low
head and smaller applications, and can be used
to boost pressure in irrigation systems.
Centrifugal and multi-stage high lift pumps can
be used for larger jobs and for increasing water
pressure in high head situations. Submersible
booster pumps can be used instead of centrifugal
booster pumps when noise reduction is a factor.
Submersibles can also be used as water booster
pumps to increase pressure in the suction lines
of centrifugal pumps.
Water booster pumps are often required in remote
areas, where access to fuel or electricity is
limited or nonexistent. Providence solar pumps
are powered entirely by the sun, providing a
sustainable and cost-effective solution for
increasing water pressure.
