The design of the system must ensure that self

avoided.

The pump is supplied with water direct from a
booster pump.
The inlet pressure of the pump must never
exceed the outlet pressure. This may typically
occur in boosted or open-ended systems with

direct water supply.
In order to avoid this it is recommended to install
a pre-stressed check valve or a pressure switch in
the pump inlet.
The opening pressure of the check valve must be
bigger or equal to the inlet pressure.

observe the following guidelines:
1) Place the tank above the pump (water level
in the tank should always be above the
pump).

minimum pipe length, minimum number
of bends/connections, ttings with small
pressure losses).
If a non-return valve is mounted in the inlet line,
a low-pressure relief valve will also be required.
Alternatively a high-pressure check valve could
be mounted in the pump discharge line to
prevent the pump from reversing.

The dotted setup ensures that the inlet pressure
does not exceed the 5 barg, when a non- return
valve is mounted in the inlet.
