The water supply system in private houses and cottages is installed first. Installation pumping station at the dacha will provide all residents with amenities in the form of a constant supply of water from the hydraulic system, regardless of the pressure in it. Another function of the pumping station is.
The durability of the structure and the quality of the fluid supply depend on the correct installation. Before proceeding with installation, it is necessary to study the information on this issue.
Depending on the source of liquid, the station can be connected to three types of sources:
The location of the unit can be:
In the first option, the unit is located on a hill. This is necessary to prevent contact Wastewater with the device. To prevent vibrations, the device should not touch the walls of the room in which it is located. The temperature in the room must be positive, that is, a heated room is necessary.
In the second option, placement occurs at a depth of two meters or more. This is due to soil freezing.
Station design options:
The first is used for well depths up to ten meters.
The second is installed at a well depth of ten to twenty meters. The model is equipped with an ejector. The estimate for the installation and location of the pipeline is calculated at the planning stage.
The design of the pumping station consists of the following parts:
The very first step is to develop a layout diagram for the installation. The mechanism is located as close as possible to the source. Before installing the pumping station, it is placed on a rubber mat. This action will prevent vibrations of the device and prevent the device from falling into water. When placing the device in a well, it is bolted to the shelf on which it will be placed.
Connecting a pumping station to a well, as well as installing a pumping station in a well, consists of the following steps:
When installing a pumping station in a private house, it is necessary to take into account the length of the pipeline, including turns. Any connection must be tightened tightly using a wrench. When the pressure drops to 1.2 atmospheres, it is increased by compressors. The pressure of the accumulator is controlled using a pressure gauge. To do this, attach a pressure gauge to the nipple and measure .
The required pressure of the pumping station to create pressure is 1.5 atmospheres. If the water pressure in the system is higher, the user will be able to use the shower, but the load on the equipment will be increased, which will lead to wear. With reduced pressure, the system does not wear out, but the water supply will be at a low level of comfort. For comfortable performance it is necessary. The connection of the pumping station to the well is carried out after careful study of the diagrams.
After securing the equipment and connecting to the main line, the connection is made. This operation consists of the following steps:
After installation and connection are completed, the entire system is tested. To check, the pump, accumulator and line are filled with water. The motor turns on. The motor turns off when the pressure is reached; until this point, the system is filled with water. To provide automatic shutdown and the inclusion of a mechanism to achieve certain indicators is regulated.
The pressure switch is adjusted as follows:
There is a rule for setting pressure indicators, which allows you to prevent rapid wear of the membrane . The difference between the switch-on and switch-off pressure indicators of the unit is ten percent in favor of the switch-on indicator.
Installing a pumping station with your own hands plumbing system Suitable for insufficient blood pressure common system water supply If it is necessary to connect a boiler or home water heater to the system, the pressure must be sufficient.
To connect to the main line, use the tapping or tee method. If the water supply is polyethylene pipe with a diameter of thirty-two millimeters (this is the standard for such material), in this case the method with a tee is used. If the water supply consists of steel pipe, and its diameter is more than thirty-two millimeters, in this case the method of inserting into the system is used. Be sure to seal all connections with a rubber band to prevent leaks.
To connect the station, a ball valve is attached to the insert. A pipe is connected to the tap, connected to couplings at both ends. The extreme coupling is attached to the apparatus.
A ball valve is attached to the outlet of the unit using a fitting. A collet is screwed into it, suitable for a plastic pipe, and the pipe itself leading into the room is attached.
Installation is carried out with storage tank. The storage tank must be connected to the general water supply system. Before entering the home, water, passing through a container, goes to the pumping station. After this, the wire and equipment settings must be installed. The installed water pump unit is being configured. Connecting a pumping station to a water supply without regulated pressure will not function.
Pressure adjustment at the pumping station is carried out as follows: after filling the cochlea with two liters of water, control the shutdown and activation of the device. The switch-off indicator is three bars, the switch-on indicator is up to two bar. Screw P is used to adjust the switching pressure, and screw DR is used to adjust the shutdown pressure. The screw is used as a pressure regulator.
When installed, the pumping station must be provided with a filter for pre-purification of water. The filter is installed on the suction unit. Installation of a pumping station is accompanied by cleaning the filter, since its contamination will lead to contamination of the entire system and a decrease in pressure in it. The adjustment of the pumping station is carried out painstakingly to ensure high-quality operation of the entire mechanism.
By installing a pumping station in the country, the user receives constant pressure in the tap and comfortable use of water. A properly adjusted and tuned unit will last a long time.
Since the issue of water supply directly affects life support country house, then when choosing equipment, the consumer gives preference first of all to reliable devices, and in this series the leadership, of course, goes to Danish products trademark, especially since the offered range allows each homeowner to choose a station model taking into account his needs. And the scope of application of the equipment is quite wide and is not limited only to supplying water to the house: with the help of a pumping station, you can easily organize an automatic watering system in a garden or greenhouse, provide maintenance for a swimming pool, and owners of city apartments with weak or unstable pressure in the city can also show interest in pumping stations. system.
For a private home optimal choice could be a Grundfos 45 MQ series pumping station, which can be used for sources with a depth of up to 8 m, while the device’s power is sufficient to pump water over a distance of up to 45 meters. The model of the same series, MQ 3-35, has a lower power and is installed if the distance to the water intake does not exceed 35 m. You can also use these models to increase the pressure, both for a home with autonomous system water supply, and for an apartment with a centralized supply. An excellent choice for summer residents or gardeners can be models of the Grundfos JP series with productivity sufficient for organizing autonomous water supply in the house and for automatic watering or filling special reservoirs of swimming pools on the site. It is important to pay attention to the fact that products in this series differ not only in power and performance, but also in the volume of the hydraulic tank.
The Scala2 pumping station has also gained rapid popularity among consumers, providing excellent pressure in a private house with average water consumption. It can be used with a large number water collection points - up to 8 units, while the installation is characterized by a low noise level, which does not create discomfort in the house. The power of the device is 2 kW, with a productivity of 3.6 m2/h, the maximum depth of water rise is 8 m. A head of 45 m allows you to install such stations as in one-story houses, and in two-story cottages.

Pumping stations are used in water systems for domestic and industrial purposes:
Any of the listed equipment series is presented in various designs and meets specific tasks. The manufacturer has simplified the installation of the equipment as much as possible. An inexperienced summer resident can cope with the installation, following the instructions for servicing the Grundfos pumping station.
The greatest demand is for equipment famous manufacturer in the world agriculture. Here they are required for irrigation of land, to increase pressure in systems located far from water supply sources. The user can select equipment for irrigation or home water supply.
A special feature of Grundfos pumping stations is the well-thought-out arrangement of units that form a single system. The special steel housing reliably protects the working element. The complex can pump water from open reservoirs, wells and wells. The MQ and JPB series are developed using the company's technology, but are produced by subsidiaries only for their region, without the right to export.
The JP series represents centrifugal self-priming pumps, which are equipped with Grundfos JP Booster pumping stations. The pump is supplied with a hydraulic tank with a capacity of 24-60 liters, depending on the performance. The best watering system is an ejector-type station that supplies water from open reservoirs and pools.
The injection system lifts water from a depth of 25 meters, while the engine is located on the surface, and the lifting mechanism is lowered into the well. At the same time, the system operates almost silently.
The most famous of this series of equipment are the grundfos JP Basic 3pt pumping stations. The self-priming pump with a submersible ejector has best ratio price-quality of all household pumps from this company. High performance, 3.6 cu.m. m/hour, water pressure 47 m. Art. And membrane accumulator characterize the demand for equipment. During operation, the pump supplies water saturated with air without reducing productivity. Most often, the pump is used in private farmsteads.
Equipment series Grundfos Hydro jet JP is highly durable. Anti-corrosion coating is applied outside and inside. Reliable automation conducts the process in an economical mode. If water flows for a long time, the pump turns off completely.
The pumps operate by creating a pressure of 5 or 6 atmospheres in the system. The station is equipped with membrane-type battery tanks of various capacities. The grundfos hydroijet jp5 pumping station for residential buildings is equipped with a 24 liter tank. But the system, in which a hydraulic accumulator with a capacity of 60 liters is installed, keeps the parameters more evenly. With a power of 0.75 kW, the pump has a head of 43 m and costs 13,800 rubles.
Pumps complete with membrane tanks represent a series of stations for household use. The battery tank is separated by a membrane partition. In one part there is water, in the other part air is supplied under pressure. As a result, the pressure in the water system will always be stable, and the pump is less likely to receive a command to turn on. The equipment is produced with or without a hydraulic tank.
The grundfos mq 3-45 pump series works with membrane tank drive. The system creates a pressure of up to 4.5 bar or 45 m of water. Art. Designed for organizing water supply to private houses. The device can be used as a booster. The productivity of the device is 3 cubic meters / hour. The system has self-priming from a depth of up to 8 meters. Pump weight 13 kg. The Grundfos 3-35 pumping station has similar characteristics, 35 meters of water column.
For the operation of these particular pumping stations, pressure drops are critical. The equipment operates stably at a voltage of 220-240 V; in other ranges the pump will fail. To ensure the safety of the equipment, it is necessary to use a voltage stabilizer. For rare switching, an additional storage tank is used.
