Product Overview
Commercial building installations rely on automated line boosting to prevent pressure fluctuations across outlets. This variable-speed booster package is built around 1 Calpeda MXV 50-1517 vertical multistage pump to deliver smooth and dependable hydraulic performance. Under peak water demand, the unit achieves a maximum flow rate of 400 L/Min to service multiple fixtures concurrently. When operating against closed discharge valves, the multi-stage assembly generates a maximum shut-off head of 224 m to overcome static building elevation.
Automated line pressure management is directed by a motor-mounted Calpeda I-MAT frequency inverter operating in conjunction with an electronic pressure transducer. By continuously sampling downstream line pressure, the frequency drive smoothly varies pump operating velocity to satisfy dynamic facility draw requirements. Gradual motor acceleration dampens hydraulic shocks and eliminates water hammer, extending the operational life of connected piping and plumbing fixtures. The integrated control suite offers complete digital protection against dry operation, motor overcurrent, and incoming phase irregularities.
High-grade AISI 304 stainless steel fabrication across the pump casing, intermediate stage chambers, impellers, and shaft ensures superior corrosion resistance and hygiene. Hydraulic pipework incorporates matching 50 mm suction and discharge connections with heavy-duty G 2" BSP threaded fittings for simplified mechanical installation. The entire booster station is rigidly secured upon an AISI 304 stainless steel baseplate and comes complete with isolation ball valves, an inline non-return check valve, a visual pressure gauge, and a membrane pressure vessel on the delivery header.
The driving motor comprises an energy-efficient 2-pole induction unit designed for standard Australian three-phase 400 V (50 Hz) commercial electrical mains. Running at a rated full-load speed of 2900 rpm, it produces 15 kW (P2) of mechanical shaft output while drawing a rated full-load current of 27.5 A. Engineered for high continuous duty cycles, the precision-balanced drive ensures dependable and quiet operational performance in commercial plant room installations.
Key Features
- Vertical multistage 17-stage hydraulic architecture delivers smooth and balanced pressure accumulation across intermediate chambers.
