GT-U is a steel pressure tank with a replaceable, non-toxic butyl rubber bladder enclosed by compressed nitrogen for greywater and drinking water applications.
Steel Pressure Tanks
Steel pressure tanks are large vessels that store pressurized liquids such as water, oil, and chemicals. They are made from steel, which helps them resist corrosion and increase their lifespan. Pressure tanks can be used in various applications, including industrial processes, water treatment facilities, fire protection systems, etc. Steel pressure tanks offer superior strength to other materials, such as plastic or fiberglass, due to their high-density construction, designed to hold up against the pressures they contain. In addition, they require minimal maintenance when cared for properly, so they maintain optimal performance over time, making them an ideal choice for many situations where reliable storage is needed.
What’s a bladder pressure tank like GT-U?
A bladder pressure tank is a type of water storage container used to store pressurized water and regulate its flow. It consists of an air-filled rubber or plastic bladder forming a sealed chamber around the stored water. The air pressure inside the room pushes outward on the walls and keeps them apart, preventing any contact between the reserved liquid and its environment. Bladder pressure tanks are often used in residential applications such as irrigation systems or homes with good pumps. They provide consistent supply pressures regardless of changes in demand by acting as a buffer against system surges. They also help reduce pump cycling by delivering larger amounts of stored volume than rigid tanks while taking up less space due to their flexible construction.
The Grundfos GT-U bladder pressure tank is of high quality and has been designed to meet the needs of homeowners and businesses looking for dependable water storage solutions. The tank is drinking water approved, with a maximum operating pressure of 16 bar and a maximum liquid temperature of 70°C.
What makes it unique?
This high-performance steel pressure tank has a replaceable, non-toxic butyl rubber diaphragm surrounded by compressed nitrogen. It also has a precision molded copolymer polypropylene liner for superior air and water separation, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor installation.
For added convenience, the FlowThru connection ensures that the contents inside remain fresh at all times while in use by constantly flushing out any stagnant elements present in normal system operations.
Furthermore, this top-grade bladder-type pressure tank comes precharged up to 1.9 bar via its non-replaceable diaphragm, giving users greater control over their system’s operations by limiting start/stop frequency when consumption levels are low or leakage loss, which can cause problems like ‘water hammering’ and so on within pipework systems if left unchecked.
Finally, the Grundfos GT-U is simple to install solution that offers reliable protection against fluctuating pressures within your pipework setup while also improving comfort levels through constant flushing action during normal operations. This feature-rich product offers robust construction and efficient operation without sacrificing safety standards, making it one of the most popular choices amongst homeowners and commercial establishments alike looking for premium-grade pressurized tanks suitable for all types of drinking purposes, including potable ones!
