The AquaForce pump station is provided as a pre-engineered answer for installations requiring consistent water pressure with variable flow rates. The AquaForce can be selected and installed for many applications including: hotels, commercial buildings, public buildings, schools, hospitals, domestic water, irrigation, general industrial process, municipal water supply, rural water supply, RO water, wash systems and general water boosting. Each of these applications typically sees varying demand during the day, but the users demand a consistent water pressure even in periods of peak use.
G&L Pumps has developed the AquaForce pump station to meet this need. The AquaForce consists of either two (duplex) or three (triplex) pumps mounted to a common steel base. These pumps may be either horizontal end suction or vertical multistage design based on the required pressure. Pump liquid end components and the common suction and discharge manifolds are all provided in stainless steel. Each station also includes all required gate valves, check valves, pressure transducers and gages.
Each pump is equipped with its own Aquavar variable speed pump controller, which is described in more detail in the following section. A central fuse panel with individual pump disconnects is provided to assist with shut down for maintenance. The entire AquaForce station carries the UL and CUL certification.
The AquaForce can be connected to either surface or underground supply tanks or directly to municipal water supply. The following diagram shows the various piping layouts available for both duplex and triplex pump stations. Both suction and discharge manifolds are supplied with flanges at each end for either left hand or right hand installation.
NOTE: Each pump in the AquaForce station is sized with the same maximum flow rate. For duplex stations, each pump can produce 50% of total flow.
