The Challenge
Our customer, a luxury knitwear brand based in the UK, required a new booster set for their manufacturing centre in the Midlands. They were about to install new dye equipment that required a hot and cold water feed with a pressure of between 4 – 6 bar. However, the existing supply feed only provided 2 bar, which was insufficient. Therefore, a new set of booster pumps was necessary. Our customer wanted reliability and longevity from their new booster set.
The Solution
To meet the required pressure, we recommended a fully automatic booster set for the water supply. The solution comprised three Grundfos pumps, with Danfoss inverters and a control panel, all mounted onto a frame for ease of use and installation.
The triple booster set included:
- 3 x Grundfos 4.0kW pumps coupled in parallel
- A Dura Pump triple booster panel complete with panel mount displays for the inverters and individual isolators for each inverter
- 3 x Danfoss FC 202 Inverters with Cascade, mounted in a control panel
- Stainless steel discharge manifold, suction manifold, and base plate
- All necessary non-return and isolation valves
- Pressure gauge, transmitter, and vessels
- Duty Point: 600 l/min @ 4.0 bar (each pump capable of 300 l/min) Duty/Assist/Standby
The inverters were programmed to maintain a constant pressure regardless of flow changes and fluctuations.
Outcome
Our engineers attended the site to install, program and fully commission the pump system. As a result, our customer now has the advanced technology needed to meet the demands of their dye equipment. The new pump system delivers the required pressure while ensuring it remains constant, thereby enhancing the efficiency and reliability of their manufacturing processes for the years to come.
Key Points
- The latest technology Grundfos performance pumps.
- Dura Pump bespoke booster panel.
- Danfoss fully programmed inverters.
