The hydro -accumulator tank is an analogue of the water tower and serves as a buffer capacity to extend the operational life of the pump in the water supply system. Thanks to the pumping of water into the tank and further automatic shutdown of the device, the pump works in a more sparing mode. This allows you to significantly extend its service life. In the modern market of equipment for individual water supply systems, two types of hydraulic boats are represented – membrane and cumulative.
The former are steel structures with a bag of a bag or pear resembling in shape, into which water is pumped. Water drainage is prevented by the check valve, and pressure control is carried out through a pressure gauge. Between the membrane and the nitrogen pumped. The flow of water into the system is carried out when the crane is opened. The absorption pump is turned on automatically when the tank is partially empty. All modern accumulatory tanks, a wide range of which is presented at . UA/gidroakkumuljatory can serve as a reserve capacity that accumulates water.
The volume of the hydraulic tank is chosen, depending on the purpose. In suburban houses there is enough device, designed for 12-24 liters. If the area is characterized by frequent interruptions in electricity, then this is not enough, since such a amount of water with a stretch can be called “backup”. To protect yourself from possible problems allows the acquisition of a tank with a capacity of 250 to 500 liters. It all depends on the duration and frequency of the power supply shutdown.
Accumulative tanks, unlike membrane, have huge volumes of containers, allowing to provide daily water consumption, that is, about one cubic meter. They have impressive dimensions and weight, therefore, are installed in rooms that can withstand a large load. Most often placed storage hydraulic shoes in attics or upper floors. Such structures are equipped with automation, including the pump when the water level drops to a certain mark.
