1. GENERAL
1.1 Application
• The essential role of the booster is to pressurize a water distribution
network in which the pressure is too low or non-existent. For clear,
non-agressive liquids (drinking water, glycolated water, etc...).
Water may be supplied to the module either from a town water sys-
tem or from a storage tank.

5. INSTALLATION
5.1 Room
The booster must be installed in a room that is easy to reach, normally
ventilated, and protected from frost.
Make sure that the door of the room is large enough.
5.2 Installation
Install on smooth, level floor, or on a concrete foundation block with
attachment by anchor bolts. Place an insulating material (cork or
reinforced rubber) under the concrete block to prevent any trans-
mission of flowing-water noise.
5.3 Hydraulic connections
• The suction pipe is on the same side of the pumps.
• The discharge pipe is above the pumps.
Comply with the requirements of the water supply
