- Configuration-The 6800 Booster range offers enhanced features, such as improved touchscreens, more performance envelopes, an easy-to-use selection software, and onboard energy and flow readings both present and historic. For the full improved feature set please refer to the Solution Outline for this product.
- Performance range-Up to 2000 USgpm (450 m3/hr) flow; up to 370 psi (22 bar) pressure
- Power Range-Up to 250 hp (up to 185 kW)
Description
Benefits & Features
Lowest Installed Cost
- Compact design for 10-15% smaller footprint and related mechanical room space savings over competitive models of equal capacity.
- Integrated intelligent controls eliminate procurement and installation costs (mounting, wiring, calibration) for standalone variable frequency drives.
- Superior energy performance qualifies for significant cost recovery under utility and government rebate programs.
Lowest Operating Cost
- Integrated intelligent controls – combined with perfect component match-up and tuning – for up to 70% in energy savings over traditional constant speed and hybrid booster systems.
- Advanced software features and operating routines substantially reduce maintenance requirements (e.g. uniform load distribution across all pumps avoids pump overloading and premature failure; controlled soft-fill mitigates water hammer and related plumbing system damages)
Lowest Environmental Cost
- Up to 70% decrease in energy consumption reduces operational greenhouse gas emissions by the same amount.
- Factory assembled system packs and ships more economically for reduced packaging waste compared to individual component shipments
Lowest Project and Operating Risk
- High-efficiency performance envelopes allow for a performance comfort zone around the preliminary design point, enabling swift and easy adaptation to changing design, site or operating conditions.
- Integrated intelligent controls afford fast and easy commissioning.
- Single source-responsibility for optimum design and field support.

- Description-The Armstrong vortex air separators create a vortex or whirlpool action, sending the heavier air-free water to the outer portion of the tank, and allowing the lighter air-entrained water mixture to move into the lower-velocity center. At the center of the vortex the air is released from the water, forms bubbles and exits through an air vent or compression tank installed above it.
