Clean ergonomic with a break tank
Clean ergonomic with a break tank
Before the installation of a break tank was more the exception than the rule. Today, it is usually the norm, because you can clean ergonomic with a break tank.
Backflow protection needed?
The main function of the break tank consists of preventing the back-flow of water (possibly containing chemicals) from the cleaning system to the central piping system. In other words, the tank forms a buffer between the central water mains and the cleaning system network.
This tank is connected to the single or double pressure-booster unit that you choose (based on the required pressure and flow rate).
Benefits of a water tank
Filler valve and level sensor.
The level sensor will command the filler valve to open to fill the break tank or not. The valve closes when there is sufficient water in the tank.
Should the water still rise for a particular reason (failure of the sensor or valve), the water above the required level is drained away through an overflow.
Constant water supply
It is able to accommodate peak times and generate a constant water supply to the branch points. It then performs a water storage function.
The size of the water tank depends on the number of litres that your installation needs a minute. Besides the standard 200-litre and 800-litre tanks, BOONS FIS also offers you custom-made tanks for greater storage.
Belgaqua certified
Good to know: the 200-litre and 800-litre tanks from BOONS FIS have a Belgaqua certificate, which is from the professional association of public services for drinking water supplies and waste water purification in Belgium.
The break tanks are following these standards:
- EN1717 (Protection against contamination of drinking water in water installations and general requirements for appliances to prevent contamination by backflow)
- product standard EN13077 (Devices to prevent the contamination of drinking water by backflow - Air gap with a non-circular overflow (unrestricted) - Family A - Type B).
Feel free to contact us.
Thanks to these features, BOONS FIS water tanks are a solid choice for quality managers looking for a sustainable and safe solution for their pressure booster systems.
