Test results
Congratulations. You have passed the test and completed the 8 - Water boosting in commercial buildings
Achieved badges:
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: 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: How is it possible to make sure that an entire system performs at the best efficiency point at all times?
A: An intelligent controller
Q: How is it possible to make sure that an entire system performs at the best efficiency point at all times?
A: Correctly sized pipes
Q: How is it possible to make sure that an entire system performs at the best efficiency point at all times?
A: The right number of pumps
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
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: What is a zone divided booster system?
A: The supply system is split into several zones, each with its own booster set
Q: What is a zone divided booster system?
A: A zone divided system is defined by only using in-line pumps
Q: What is a zone divided booster system?
A: You always have a spare pump in case of failure
