Hydrophore sets

Hydrophore sets ZHI, ZHJ

Homepage > > ZHI, ZHJ
The ZHI and ZHJ sets are based on a single OPA and OPB pump and complete with non-return valves, a hydraulic accumulator, and a control system. The set configuration depends on the intended use and application.

The single pump sets built as parallel systems of several pumps are designed for pumping water, raising water pressure in supply networks, and compensation of hydraulic losses resulting from the parameters of supplied pipelines.

Main applications:

  • Small water supply networks;
  • Indoor fire hydrant/standpipe systems;
  • Irrigation systems (for gardening and farming);
  • Industrial water supply and processing systems (cooling systems, cleaning systems, etc.).

TECHNICAL DATA

  • Capacity: 1,5 ÷ 75 m3/h
  • Delivery head: 12 ÷ 100 m
  • Pumped liquid temperature: max 40oC
  • Working pressure: 1 [bar]

Design:

ZHI and ZHJ are single pump sets. The pump is installed on a support structure, and features cut-off and non-return valves, controls (LCA pressure switch or pressure transducer), a control system and a hydraulic accumulator.

Pumping units ZHI and ZHJ feature OPA and OPB (upgraded OPA) pumping units.

Support structure: The structure is welded from steel sections. It rests on vibration dampers with height adjustment in the range of 20 mm and a levelling system. The support structure can be optionally made of structural carbon steel with dip zinc coating or austenitic steel.

Fittings: The pump has a non-return valve. The ZHI.2 to ZHI.3 and ZHJ.0 to ZHJ.3 sets also feature cut-off ball valves on the delivery and suction/supply ends. The delivery end also features a pressure gauge installed on the delivery pipe or on the hydraulic accumulator (ZBW.5: 200 litres capacity, or ZBO tanks).

Installation site considerations:

  • The room area should enable installing the hydraulic accumulator set with clearances that enable free access to individual components.
  • The ambient temperature at the installation site should be between +5oC and + 40oC.
  • The room should feature a ventilation system with an air exchange rate of 1/hour or higher.
  • Due to the foundation of the set on vibration dampers with levelling, no extra foundation works are necessary for the installation.
  • The room floor should have a slope towards floor drains for effective water discharge from the installation site. The running hydraulic accumulator set must be protected from flooding with water.
  • If the set is fed by an open storage reservoir, the hydraulic accumulator set should be located to ensure a minimum static flow of 1.0 m at the set connection point. Otherwise contact the manufacturer to select and install a suitable flooding adapter.


Hydro-Vacuum S.A. Pump Selection Progam.

Quick and simple online tool for pump selection based on set criteria.

Thanks to the PDP, by means of the "Hydraulic Selection" function, specific pumps can be selected by configuring, among other things, the area of application, pump type, pump design, medium to be pumped, operating point, etc. Alternatively, by using the "Product Catalogue", you can conveniently browse through the pump catalogue which is Hydro-Vacuum S.A. 's production offer.

The result of the selection is a data sheet for the pump containing all the necessary hydraulic (characteristics), electrical, material, construction, dimensional, etc. data.

The first thing to do is to register a new account. After entering some necessary data and approving the form, an activation link will be sent to the e-mail address provided. After clicking on the link, you will be able to make full use of the Hydro-Vacuum S.A. Pump Selection Software.

We encourage you to create an account and try our program.
