A Single Pump Booster System is a compact and efficient water pressure boosting unit that utilizes one pump to increase water pressure in low-pressure applications. Designed for residential, commercial, and light industrial use, it ensures consistent and reliable water flow by automatically turning on when pressure drops below a set threshold.
The system typically includes a centrifugal or jet pump, a pressure controller or pressure switch, and optional components like a pressure tank and check valve. It activates on demand, delivering water at the desired pressure and turning off when the demand stops, helping to conserve energy and prolong pump life.
| Component | Example Purpose |
|---|---|
| Pump | Increases pressure |
| Pressure switch | Turns pump on/off at set points |
| Pressure tank | Prevents rapid cycling (optional) |
| Check valve | Prevents backflow |
| Flow controller | Automates pump operation |
What Is a Single Pump Booster?
It’s a self-contained system consisting of:
-
One pump
-
Pressure tank (optional in some models)
-
Pressure switch or controller
-
Check valve and piping
It increases water pressure when the existing pressure is too low — such as from municipal lines, rainwater tanks, or wells.
How It Works:
-
Low pressure water enters the booster.
-
The pump turns on when pressure drops below a set point.
-
It boosts the pressure and sends water to your taps, shower, or irrigation system.
-
When demand stops, the pressure switch turns the pump off.
Advantages:
-
Compact and easy to install
-
Cost-effective
-
Ideal for homes or small buildings
-
Can be automated with a pressure controller (dry run protection, soft start, etc.)
Example Setup:
-
Pump: 1 HP centrifugal pump
-
Pressure switch: 30/50 psi range
-
Tank: 24L pressure tank (optional but helpful)
-
Controller: Can be mechanical or digital
