Differences between Water Pumps and Booster Pump

Today, with the increase in cities' populations, water pumps have become one of the most frequently used facilities in residential and commercial buildings. In small buildings, ordinary water pumps are used to improve the water pressure. Whereas in massive buildings and complexes, many units, water supply pump boosters to solve the water pressure problem, especially on the upper floors. Each booster pump consists of several water pumps on a chassis. The control circuit and other peripheral equipment are formed. If you are planning to use a water pump for your apartment or workplace, but you do not know exactly what type of pump, with what capacity, and what pressure is suitable for you, follow this article with us to talk about the difference between a pump and a booster pump.

What Is an Ordinary Water Pump? In general, the water pump is responsible for the transfer and supply of water needed in water supply facilities, fire fighting, agriculture, industry, water features, etc. In this regard, a suitable water pump should, in addition to providing the volume of irrigation according to the amount of consumption, also have sufficient pressure to deliver water to the place of consumption.

How Do Water Pumps Work? The way the water pump works is that the pump receives the power required to increase the water pressure from the electric motor. After supplying the required energy of the pump by the electric motor, when the fluid enters the internal chamber of the pump, the pump impeller starts to rotate, and simultaneously with the rotation of the vanes, the kinetic energy resulting from their rotation is transferred to the fluid passing through the pump chamber, which ensures the speed and More pressure for the passing fluid.

Types of Water Pumps Among the types of pumps are linear water pumps, ground pumps, floating pumps, jet water pumps, circulator pumps, floor pumps, skimmer pumps, steel pumps, sludge pumps, double impeller water pumps, centrifugal pumps, plate water pumps, etc. Cited. It is obvious that the application and use of each of them are determined after checking the conditions in terms of water pressure supply, transfer of required water volume or flow, and even the concentration and size of possible suspended substances in the water, as well as based on the opinion of the facility engineer and relevant expert.

The Main Components of a Water Pump Each of the main components of the pump is effective in its performance, and if any of these components have problems, the overall performance of the device will also be disrupted. Important components in water pumps include the following:

Electric motor: a device for providing mechanical power to rotate the axis of the pump impeller Bearing or bearing housing: the location of bearings or bearings to rotate the pump axis Coupling: the interface connecting the electromotor shaft to the pump shaft Propeller: There are many different types of it to provide pressure and transfer fluid according to the application. Mechanical seal: sealing the pump output shaft Pump: An assembly that connects to fluid piping. Applications of Ordinary Water Pumps In the following, we will discuss some water pump applications:

Use in residential complexes: The water pump is used in residential complexes to transfer water from the storage tank to toilets and kitchens and even to irrigate the garden with a sprinkler system. Use in industries: The water pump is the heart of any water supply system in the industry. Water supply systems ensure the supply of sufficient water for the consumption of the required sector and include transporting water from the water tank or storing water for the required purpose. Use in agriculture: A good water pump plays an important role in providing water to the agricultural sector. In agriculture, water pumps are used to transfer water from water wells, water tanks, lakes, streams, and rivers to agricultural lands. In the above paragraphs, the pump and its components, and its function have been fully explained. Next, we will examine the booster pump and its components, and its use. By reading this article, you will understand the difference between a pump and a booster pump, and you can prepare the pump you want.

What Is a Booster Pump? A set of several electropumps that are connected in parallel and by piping on a suitable chassis is called a booster pump. The booster pump provides the amount of water consumption and water pressure required for the water supply or fire fighting system, especially in high-rise buildings.

Booster Pumps Production Process In booster pumps, an inverter is usually used to prevent the initial electrical and mechanical shock at the time of starting the pump, which causes the slow start of the electric motor at a low speed and gradually increases the speed and power of the pump. Also, if the pump power is completed At the maximum speed, the water volume or water pressure is not enough, and the second pump automatically enters the circuit. Also, in booster water supply pumps that are constantly working, the Change over the system is used to change the alternate start of the pumps.

Types of Booster Pumps Regardless of the type of use (water supply, fire fighting), working pressure, number of pumps, etc., booster pumps are usually produced in two types: fixed speed and variable speed.

Booster Pump with Adaptable Speed In the variable speed booster pump, the ability to adjust the speed of the pump is available using the variable speed pump booster control panel inverters. Variable speed pump boosters are the same as fixed speed booster pumps in terms of appearance, but they differ in the steering circuit board. This difference includes the use of (an inverter) remote control device; which creates the required flow rate and pressure by changing the speed of the electric motor. Variable-speed booster pumps are used especially for water supply systems.

Fixed Speed Booster Pump In the constant speed pump booster, the pressure switch installed on it commands the pumps in turn to supply the consumption water flow as needed. Each pump is placed under load with maximum power in each starting load and provides the required water flow and pressure. In this pump booster, by using the pressure switches installed on the booster, it is possible to control the pumps in turn based on the need. Constant speed booster pumps are used especially for water supply systems.

The Main Components of Booster Pumps In this part, we are going to get to know the main components of the booster pump.

Electric motor: the electric motor that drives the pump shaft and impeller. Pump: The main factor of circulation and fluid flow is the performance of the pump with a proper head, flow, and diameter. Electrical and control board: The electrical board is responsible for controlling and coordinating the mechanical and electrical components of the booster pump, and its proper design plays a significant role in the optimal functioning of the system. Manometer: to measure the input and output pressure of the fluid to the booster pump and display the pressure of each of the pumps. Pressure switch: controlling the minimum and maximum pressure of required operation and determining the permissible working pressure range in booster pumps Pressure transmitter: This important equipment is used in variable speed booster pumps and for completely constant control of water pressure. Chassis: All booster pump components, including the pump, electric motor, control board, pipes, and connections of the suction and heating parts, must be placed on a solid and integrated chassis to prevent vibration in addition to integrating the system. (It is better to install the switchboard in a stable and vibration-free place) Diaphragm tank: due to the incompressibility of water, the water pressure in the system must always be constant and the water pressure supplied by the pump must circulate. This task can be entrusted to a pressurized diaphragm tank to store water at a certain pressure. Applications of Booster Pumps Due to the high diversity of the booster pump, this device is widely used in industries, commercial buildings, offices, and residential houses, providing the level of water consumed by factories and farms. These are the main differences between the pump and booster pump.
