What are they and how do they work?
Hydrofoor sets
A hydrofoor unit is a pump system used to regulate and increase the water pressure in buildings. The system consists of a pump, a pressure vessel and a control system that switches on and off automatically. When the water pressure in the system falls below a certain level, the pump is activated and water is pumped into the pressure vessel. Once the pressure vessel is full, the pump is switched off and the water in the building can be used without loss of pressure.
Hydrofoor units are often used in multi-storey buildings where the water pressure is lower than desired. They are also useful in areas where the water supply is unreliable, as they provide water storage for use in the event of a water outage. Maintenance of pressurized units is important to maintain optimum performance and consists of regular inspection and cleaning of the pump and pressure vessel.
The advantages and operation of pressurized water units in water distribution
Pressurized water units are pump systems used to increase and regulate water pressure in multi-storey buildings or areas with low water pressure. The system consists of a pump, a pressure vessel and a control system for automatic on/off control.
One of the main advantages of pressurized water units is that they increase the water pressure in buildings and households, making the use of water more efficient and comfortable. This also increases the life of equipment that depends on constant water pressure, such as water heaters and washing machines.
The pressure vessel is an important part of the pressurized water unit, as it acts as a buffer between the pump and the pipe network. When the pump is activated, water is pumped into the pressure vessel, increasing the pressure. When the pressure vessel is full, the pump is automatically switched off and the water in the building can be used without loss of pressure.
Pressurized water units are also useful in areas where the water supply is unreliable, as they provide water storage for use in the event of a water outage. Maintenance of pressurized units is important to maintain optimum performance and consists of regular inspection and cleaning of the pump and pressure vessel. It is also important to ensure proper ventilation of the pressure vessel to prevent bacterial growth.
The importance of pressurized water units in buildings with high water consumption
Pressurized water units are of great importance in buildings with high water consumption, such as office buildings, hospitals, hotels and apartment complexes. These buildings often have several floors and a large water demand, which can reduce the water pressure. A pressurized water unit provides constant water pressure, making water use more efficient and more comfortable. It is therefore important that pressurized water units are regularly inspected and maintained to maintain optimum performance and prevent inconveniences.
ADVICE AND SALES
THE BEST POSSIBLE SOLUTION FOR YOUR APPLICATION
There are many different types of pumps and just as many applications, such as a submersible, circulation or well pump. Due to this diversity of pumps, it is wise to be well informed about what type of pump is required before you purchase one or have it overhauled. The IPG team with various pump experts can always advise you on the best possible solution for your application and can also support you with the purchase and installation of the pump.
IPG has strong relationships with various pump manufacturers and can therefore give you good advice in purchasing many types and brands of pumps. For example, the Industrial Pump Group is the Dutch importer of SAER and official dealer of Lowara, Grundfos and Seepex, among others.

Pressurized water units used in HVAC
Pressurized water units are widely used in HVAC systems (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) to regulate and increase the water pressure. This is especially important in buildings where large amounts of water are required for cooling or heating, such as hospitals, office buildings and hotels. By using a pressurized water unit, the water pressure is kept constant, which ensures a more efficient and comfortable use of the HVAC system.
A well-designed pressurized water system can also help reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs. This can be achieved, for example, by using frequency-controlled pumps and correctly sizing the system.
It is important to choose a pressurized water unit that suits the specific needs of the HVAC system and that meets the necessary standards and requirements. Regular maintenance and inspection of the pressurized water unit is also important to maintain optimum performance and safety.
