(standard). If a three-pump system has one standby pump, Furthermore, the system can be set to be reset and maximum two pumps are allowed to operate at a time.
Hydro Multi-B 5. Installation Mechanical installation Location The Hydro Multi-B must be installed in a well ventilated room to ensure sufficient cooling of the pumps and the control panel. Note: The booster system is not designed for outdoor installation and must not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the booster system is suitable for the power supply to which it is to be connected. Note: Expansion joints must not be installed to Contact Grundfos if you have special voltage compensate for inaccuracies in the pipework, such as requirements.
When sizing a booster system, the following must be Selection of diaphragm tank taken into account: It is recommended Hydro Multi-B booster sets are • The performance of the booster system must meet equipped with a diaphragm tank due to the stop the highest possible demand, both in terms of flow function.

Accessories When the optimum Hydro Multi-B booster system has been selected, consider whether accessories are required. Water shortage protection Any booster system must be protected against water shortage.
Hydro Multi-B Understanding the curve charts The x-axis showing the flow rate (Q) in gpm [m /h] is common to all the curves; the y-axis showing the head (H) in ft. [meters] has been adapted to the individual pump type.
Hydro Multi-B How to select a system, example • A flow rate of 312 gpm [70.9 m /h] is required. • A head of 175 ft [53.34 meters] is required. Draw a vertical line from the specified flow rate. Draw a horizontal line from the head required.
