Pressure Booster Pumps

Description

Pressure booster pumps increase water pressure from city mains or private water systems. Applications include providing high water pressure for washing buildings, dairy walls or floors, hog parlors, poultry houses, rinsing or spray cooling equipment, lawn sprinkling and insecticide spraying. Stainless steel models can handle salt-water and contaminated water in reverse osmosis filter and other aggressive water applications.

Single-phase models are equipped with a capacitor start, thermal protected motor. Three-phase models require separate overload protection.

Unpacking

When unpacking the unit, inspect carefully for any damage that may have occurred during transit.

NOTE: Use pump with clear water only.

Example: If PB0508A031 pump is connected to supply line of sufficient capacity, carrying water at 40 PSI, and the output of the pump is held to 7.3 GPM by a gate valve, the pump will add 40 PSI to line pressure for a total output pressure of 80 PSI.

*Operation of pump in this range may result in reduced pump life and/or motor damage.

To keep pump and seal lubricated, a minimum flow of 1.5 GPM must always be maintained through the pump.

Motor voltage:

Single Phase 1/3 - 2 HP - 115/230; 3 HP - 230V 60 Hz.

 

Three Phase 1/2 - 2 HP - 208-230/460, 50/60Hz.

 

Three Phase 3 HP - 208-230/460, 60 HZ

 

For three phase models, use suffix “3” on the model no. Example: PB0512A053

• Handle included with these models only.

General Safety Information

Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in this manual and on pump. Keep safety labels in good condition. Replace missing or damaged safety labels.

This is a SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL. When you see this symbol on the pump or in the manual, look for one of the following signal words and be alert to the potential for personal injury or property damage.

Warns of hazards that WILL cause serious personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.

!

Warns of hazards that CAN cause serious personal injury or death, if ignored.

Warns of hazards that MAY cause minor personal injury, product or property damage if ignored.

IMPORTANT: Indicates factors concerned with operation, installation, assembly or maintenance which could result in damage to the machine or equipment if ignored.

NOTE: Indicates special instructions which are important but are not related to hazards.

!

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or cause death. Ground pump before connecting to power supply.

Wire motor for correct voltage. See “Electrical” section and Motor Data Charts C&D of this manual, and motor nameplate.

Ground motor before connecting to power supply.

Meet United States National Electrical Code and local codes for all wiring.

Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface or in water.

Follow wiring instructions in this manual when connecting to power lines.

!

Always disconnect power source before performing any work on or near the motor or its connected load.

Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in flammable and/or explosive atmospheres.

Hazardous pressure! Install pressure relief valve in discharge pipe. Release all pressure on system before working on any component.

1.Make workshop child proof - use padlocks, master switches; remove starter keys.

2.Wear safety glasses when working with pumps.

3.Wear a face shield and proper apparel when pumping hazardous chemicals.

4.Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly lighted; replace all unused tools and equipment.

5.Provide guarding around moving parts.

6.Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work area.

7.Periodically inspect pump and system components.

8.Protect electrical cord. Replace or repair damaged or worn cords immediately.

9.Do not insert finger or any object into pump or motor openings.

10.Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unsecured discharge line will whip, possibly causing personal injury and/or property damage or puncture.

Do not touch an operating motor or engine. They are designed to operate at high temperatures.

!

This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

!

Risk of Electric Shock. This pump has not been investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

NOTE: Pumps with the “CSA-CUS” mark are tested to UL standard UL778 and certified to CSA standard C22.2 No. 108.

Pre-Installation

HANDLING

1.Use handle supplied to lift pump.

2.Avoid impact on pump or motor. In particular, avoid impact on discharge end of pump or rear motor access cover.

LOCATION

!

In any installation where property damage and/or personal injury might result from an inoperative or leaking pump due to power outages, discharge line blockage, or any other reason, a backup system(s) should be used.

1.Locate pump as close to the fluid source as possible, keeping the inlet pipe short as possible.

2.Place unit where the pump and piping are protected from the weather and extremes of heat, humidity and below freezing temperatures.

3.Mount unit in a dry location that is easily accessible for inspection and maintenance. If a dry location is not available, mount it on a foundation well above the wet floor.

4.Allow ample clearance around unit for free air circulation.

SUCTION LIMITATIONS

1.Units are non self-priming.

2.Pressure booster pumps are not recommended for suction lift applications.

PIPING

1.Use galvanized piping, rigid plastic or other suitable pipe that will not collapse under suction or rupture due to pressure.

If hose is used, make sure it is the reinforced industrial type that is rated higher than the shutoff pressure of the system. Ordinary garden hose will collapse and starve the pump of water.

2.The diameter of the inlet and discharge pipe should be no smaller than the corresponding ports of the pump (See Figure 1). Smaller pipe will reduce the capacity of the pump. Increase pipe size on long runs.

3.Avoid air pockets in inlet piping or air will accumulate at high points, making priming difficult.

4.Use pipe compound on all joints and connections. Use Teflon tape or plastic joint stik, on plastic pipe. Draw all pipe up tightly.

IMPORTANT: The entire system must be air and water tight for efficient/proper operation.

Installation

PUMP INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: Pump is built to handle clear water only; it is not designed to handle water containing sand, silt or other abrasives.

1.Refer to Figures 6, 7, and 8 for typical installations.

Support pump and piping when assembling and when installed. Failure to do so may cause piping to break, pump to fail, motor bearing failures, etc.

2.If the pump is used as part of a permanent installation, bolt to a rigid foundation.

!

Use only components that are rated for maximum pressure pump can produce when used in boosting system or any other system. Do not exceed the total maximum pressure boost as listed per model in Performance Charts B.

PRESSURE BOOST SYSTEMS

1.On pressure boost systems, locate the pump so that there will always be a positive supply of water to the pump (See Figures 6, 7 and 8).

2.For service convenience, install a gate valve and union in the inlet and discharge line.

Do not use a globe valve or other restricting type of valve that will seriously restrict the pumps discharge capacity.

3.Install a check valve as shown in Figure 6. Be sure check valve flow arrows point in the direction of water flow.

4.Whenever dirt, sand or debris is present in the supply water, install a strainer or filter on the inlet side of the pump (See Figure 7).

NOTE: For heavy amounts of sediment, install a trap filter on the inlet side of the pump (See Figure 5). NOTE: Pressure gauges installed before and after the filter will show pressure differential indicating the need for filter replacement or cleaning.
