KSB Delta Macro pressure booster system

KSB's pressure booster systems keep water on tap - all the way to the top floor.

KSB produced its first pressure booster systems for buildings in the 1960s. In high-rise buildings, they keep water flowing from the tap, even at the very top. The KSB Delta Macro pressure booster system rises to the demands of customers in the construction industry: Thanks to its compact design, it requires little space. Water pressure is controlled automatically. The installation comprises several components includ­ ing pumps, a control cabinet, valves and motors. It can pump up to 960 cubic metres of water an hour.
