Hydropower stations are intended to maintain pressure in the sanitary or hydrant water supply network of high-rise buildings, hotels, hospitals and schools in residential areas, residential buildings, or industrial facilities. They are also intended for water pumping in various industries.

The pressure in the city network is usually too low to supply high-rise buildings with water. Appropriate pressure and enough water for the sanitary or hydrant network are provided by a hydrostation placed in the basement of the building. Hydropower stations are designed as compact devices with two or three vertical pumps controlled by a microprocessor. Versions with frequency control of pump speeds ensure a constant pressure in the plumbing. The hydrostation can be installed in a relatively small space and does not require additional installations in the building. This means that it can replace an old dilapidated hydrophore device.

The hydrostation is designed as a compact whole. The pumps are equipped with three-phase direct-start electric motors. Thermocouples are installed in the windings of electric motors to protect against overload.

All components are mounted on a joint base which allows easy transport and easy installation. The installation of the hydrostation is carried out by installing it in a room that is separated from the living quarters by appropriate insulation, in order to prevent the transmission of noise. Although the hydrostation is equipped with rubber feet, we recommend placing the station on a base made of a material that prevents the transmission of vibrations. It should be placed in the room in a way that it is at least 1 m away from the wall on all sides. This will allow easy access during servicing. The pressure and suction connection of the station is possible from the left or from the right. The hydrostation is connected to the local water supply network or draws water from the collection basin, in which the water level is above the hydrostation. In case the level in the reservoir is lower than the pump, we must use a special hydrostation, where each pump will have its own suction pipe to the reservoir. When starting the hydrostation, it is necessary to make an electrical connection in accordance with the operating instructions, set the operating parameters and check the pressure in the diaphragm pressure vessels.

On and off control is performed by a microprocessor that controls on and off by means of an analog pressure sensor on the pressure connection of the hydrostation. The setting can be arbitrary and can be done using the switch next to the LCD screen in the control box. Most often the setting of the same on and of pressures is chosen. In this way we achieve the smallest pressure fluctuations at the pressure connection of the hydrostation.
