Accumulator
The accumulator serves to compensate for
pressure losses in the piping system downstream
of the pressure booster system which may be
caused by the consumption of small quantities of
water. As a result, the frequency of starts of the
pressure booster system is minimised.
Certificate of decontamination
A certificate of decontamination is enclosed by the
customer when returning the product to the
manufacturer to certify that the product has been
properly drained to eliminate any environmental
and health hazards arising from components in
contact with the fluid handled.
Charging the accumulator
Option offered by speed-controlled pressure
booster systems of filling a discharge-side
accumulator before the last pump stops.
Energy-saving mode
Setting designed to avoid the energetically
inefficient operation of a pump at minimum water
consumption.

Design Fully automatic pressure booster system with two or three vertical high-pressure
pumps (3) for ensuring the required supply pressure
Function KSB Delta Primo K:
Either 2 or 3 pumps are controlled and monitored by a micro-processor control unit
(BoosterControl Advanced). The first pump is started up when the pressure falls
below the set start-up pressure. Additional pumps are sequenced in automatically in
line with actual demand. When demand decreases, the pumps are sequenced out
again as the stop pressure (start-up pressure+ deltap) is reached. The pump that has
been started up first will be stopped first. The pumps are automatically started up in
a different order for each new cycle. The actual pressure is measured by an analog
pressure measuring device (pressure transmitter). The function of this pressure
transmitter is monitored (live-zero).
This ensures equal distribution of pump operating hours.
If a duty pump fails, the next pump is started up immediately. A fault is output,
which can be reported via volt-free contacts (e.g. to the control station).
The operating status is displayed via LEDs.
▪Green: system ready for operation
▪Yellow: warning
▪Red: alert
2 volt-free contacts on terminals are provided for reporting warnings and alerts.
KSB Delta Primo VP, SVP:
Either 1 or more pumps are controlled and monitored by a micro-processor control
unit (BoosterControl Advanced). Each pump is operated on a frequency inverter and
controlled by the control unit so as to ensure a constant discharge pressure of the
pressure booster system.
As the demand increases or decreases, peak load pumps are started and stopped
automatically. As soon as the demand increases again after one pump has been
stopped, another pump which has not been in operation before is started up. When

5 Description
17 of 60
KSBDeltaPrimo
the last pump has been stopped and the demand increases again, the next pump in
line is started up on a frequency inverter. The stand-by pump is also included in the
alternating cycle.
The standard setting is for the pressure booster system to start automatically as a
function of pressure. As long as the pressure booster system is in operation, the
pumps are started and stopped as a function of demand (standard setting). In this
way it is ensured that the individual pumps operate only in line with actual demand.
If the demand drops towards 0, the pressure booster system slowly runs down to the
stop point.
The operating status is displayed via LEDs.
▪Green: system ready for operation
▪Yellow: warning
▪Red: alert
2 volt-free contacts on terminals are provided for reporting warnings and alerts.
5.6 Noise characteristics
The pressure booster systems are available with different numbers of pumps and
different pump sizes.
Therefore, the expected total sound pressure level in dB(A) needs to be calculated.
1. Refer to the pumps' operating manual for the noise characteristics of the
individual pumps.
2. Calculate the expected total sound pressure level.

insulation against solid-borne noise.
1. Check the structural requirements.
All structural work required must have been prepared in accordance with the
dimensions stated in the outline drawing.
6.3 Installing the pressure booster system
WARNING
Top-heavy pressure booster system
Risk of personal injury by pressure booster system tipping over!
▷Pressure booster systems awaiting final installation must be secured against
tipping over.
▷Firmly anchor the pressure booster system.
Remove all packaging before installing the pressure booster system. Connect the
pressure booster system's inlet line and discharge line to the corresponding site
distribution lines.

6 Installation at Site
20 of 60 KSBDeltaPrimo
NOTE
In order to avoid transmission of piping forces onto the pressure booster system
and transmission of solid-borne noise, we recommend installing length-limited
expansion joints.
Allow sufficient space for maintenance and repair work.
üAll structural work required has been checked.
üThe dimensions of the concrete foundation are correct, and the concrete has set
firmly.
1. Mark out the anchoring holes on the floor as shown in the outline drawing.
2. Drill the holes (max. diameter: 12mm).
3. Insert plug fixings of appropriate size.
4. Set the pressure booster system down in its correct installation position.
5. Use suitable bolts to firmly anchor the pressure booster system.
6.4 Connecting the piping
Make sure that piping is installed without transmitting any stresses or strains. The use
of length-limited expansion joints (KSB accessory) is advisable.
6.4.1 Fitting an expansion joint
DANGER
Sparks and radiant heat
Fire hazard!
▷Take suitable precautions to protect the expansion joint if any welding work is
carried out nearby.
CAUTION
Leaking expansion joint
Flooding of installation room!
▷Regularly check for cracks or blisters, exposed fabric or other defects.
üThe expansion joint has a length limiter with solid-borne sound insulation so as
to be able to absorb reaction forces.
1. Install the expansion joint in the piping free of twist or distortion. Never use the
expansion joint to compensate for misalignment or mismatch of the piping.
2. Tighten the bolts evenly and crosswise during assembly. The ends of the bolts
must not protrude from the flange.
3. Do not apply paint to the expansion joint. Protect it from any contact with oil.
4. The position of the expansion joint within the pressure booster system must
allow easy access and inspection and it must, therefore, not be insulated along
with the piping.
5. Expansion joints are subject to wear.
6.4.2 Installing a pressure reducer
NOTE
A pipe length of approximately 600 mm must be provided on the inlet side to
accommodate a pressure reducer, if necessary.
