Test results
Congratulations. You have passed the test and completed the 8 - Water boosting in commercial buildings
Achieved badges:
Q: Why are pressure relief valves not required in an intelligently designed boosting solution?
A: There is no excessive pressure in the system
Q: Why are pressure relief valves not required in an intelligently designed boosting solution?
A: The booster manifold is made of stainless steel and therefor requires no braze valves
Q: Why are pressure relief valves not required in an intelligently designed boosting solution?
A: As you typically have a break tank, pressure relief valves are not needed
Q: What is the purpose of pressure relief valves?
A: They reduce the pressure on the lower floors in single booster systems
Q: What is the purpose of pressure relief valves?
A: They reduce the pressure from the city mains at the entrance of the building
Q: What is the purpose of pressure relief valves?
A: They are used in high-rise buildings of more than 20 storeys to reduce pressure on the top floors
Q: Where are the booster sets in a zone divided system placed?
A: In the basement of the building
Q: Where are the booster sets in a zone divided system placed?
A: Next to the tap at the critical spot
Q: Where are the booster sets in a zone divided system placed?
A: In a pit right in front of the building
Q: Does a zone divided system require pressure relief valves?
A: No
Q: Does a zone divided system require pressure relief valves?
A: Yes, if the pressure from the main exceeds 10 bar
Q: Does a zone divided system require pressure relief valves?
A: Yes, they will serve as a safety valve in case of pump failure
Q: What are the benefits of an IE4 motor?
A: Fitted with a frequency drive the motor can adjust its speed to demand to lower energy consumption and wear
Q: What are the benefits of an IE4 motor?
A: The motor has all-magnetic bearings
Q: What are the benefits of an IE4 motor?
A: The motor has a built-in delta P sensor
Q: What is the benefit of a booster pump with variable speed
A: The pump automatically adjusts to changes in the water consumption to keep energy usage as low as possible
Q: What is the benefit of a booster pump with variable speed
A: A pump with variable speed is less noisy
Q: What is the benefit of a booster pump with variable speed
A: You can easily increase pressure in case of sediment build-up in pipes
