Designed for rainwater reuse systems, the Davey KRB1F RainBank system provides automatic rainwater harvesting by prioritising stored rainwater and switching to mains supply when required. The side entry controller configuration uses a float-based system for accurate water level sensing and consistent operation.
This system integrates the HP45-05 multi-stage stainless steel centrifugal pressure pump, delivering a maximum flow of 140 L/Min and a maximum head of 33 m. It provides reliable pressure across multiple outlets, making it suitable for residential water distribution and outdoor water applications.
The pump features a multi-stage centrifugal design with corrosion resistant 304 stainless steel casing and shaft, along with glass filled impellers for durability. A carbon and ceramic mechanical seal ensures long service life, while the motor includes IP55 protection, Class F insulation, and built-in thermal overload protection.
The RainBank controller incorporates an integrated dual check valve for backflow protection in compliance with AS/NZS 3500-1 plumbing requirements. It enables seamless switching between rainwater and mains supply, ensuring continuous water availability even during low tank levels or power interruptions.
