What is Hydromat Usage Areas

I will try to write an article for you on what hydromat is and what are its uses. Please read carefully and share your comments. 😊

What is Fluid Control and What Are Its Uses?

The booster automaton is a control unit that automatically starts or stops the pump according to the water demand. It is attached to the discharge port of the pumps and turns it into a booster without the need for additional parts such as a balance tank and pressure switch .

Since it is protected against dry running, it can be connected directly to the mains without storage. Hidromat is a silent, easy to install, maintenance-free and hygienic device.

What are the Advantages of Hydromat?

Since the booster does not have a large volume balance tank, it takes up little space, is practical and lightweight.
Since there is no balance tank, there is no problem of changing the membrane, problems such as membrane odor, tank puncture do not occur.
In case the faucets are opened/close too often, the pump motor has a protection system in itself so that it does not stop/start continuously. According to this system, which aims to reduce the number of switches, the pump reaches maximum pressure when the water requirement is over and continues to operate at maximum pressure for 15 seconds. Thus, the motor is already activated in case the faucet is opened again.
There is a check valve inside the fluid control unit that prevents backflow. Thus , there is no need to install an additional check valve for suction from the tank.
Fluid control unit has an electronic card and brain. When there is no water in the tank or well, the device stops automatically within 15 seconds without damaging itself. When water comes, it continues to operate automatically without the need for resetting.
Three illuminated LEDs on the Fluid control provide ease of use. (Motor in circuit, fault and energy leds)
Boosters with fluid control devices are easier to maintain and do not require maintenance such as pumping air into the tank every 6 months.

What are the Disadvantages of Hydromat?

Fluid control devices cannot be used in pumps more powerful than 1.5 Hp without a contactor panel.
Since Fluid control has an electronic card, it may cause card failure in extremely humid areas and spaces.
In areas where voltage fluctuations are frequent, the main board may be damaged.
The pump to be installed must reach a pressure of at least 3 bar.

What are the Usage Areas of Booster Automat?

It is recommended to use a fluid-controlled device in jobs such as garden irrigation where the number of flats is small and not frequently used.
If it is not possible to install a water tank or if there is too little space for the booster, or if the booster must be transported continuously, a fluid-controlled device is recommended.
Small-scale industrial plants, agricultural enterprises, swimming pools, hotels, restaurants, schools, hospitals, etc. can use hydrometric boosters.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hydromat

What is a hydromat? It is a control unit that automatically starts or stops the pump according to the water demand.
How does it work? When water consumption starts, the pressure drops and the pump is activated. When the water consumption ends, the pressure rises and the pump stops. When there is no water coming in, it protects itself and stops the pump.
How is the hydromat installed? It is connected to the pump with a fitting suitable for the pump. The electrical connection is made in accordance with the cable coming to the pump.
How to adjust the hydromat? The operating pressure is adjustable (between 1.5 – 3.0 bar). To adjust, you can increase or decrease the pressure by turning the screw clockwise or counterclockwise.
Where to buy a hydromat? It can be purchased from stores selling booster boosters or from internet sites. Quality and guaranteed products should be preferred.

Hydrometric or Expansion Tank When Buying a Booster

When buying a booster, it is necessary to consider some factors to decide whether it is hydromatic or expansion tank. Hydromatic booster pumps include a pressure switch that automatically starts the pump when the water pressure drops.

Boosters with expansion tanks, on the other hand, are a system that stores water in a pressurized tank and prevents the booster from being activated too often at low water consumption demands.

The advantages are as follows:

It is a simple and cheap system.
It can work even in the event of a water cut.
Keeps the water pressure constant.

Disadvantages include:

The pump is frequently switched on and off, which increases energy consumption and wear.
Water flow may be irregular.
When the pump fails, it can cause a complete shut-off of water.

The advantages of booster tanks with expansion tanks are as follows:

The pump runs less, which saves energy and ensures long life.
The water flow is more stable and smoother.
It can continue to use the water in the tank even when the pump fails.

The disadvantages of booster tanks with expansion tanks are as follows:

It is a more expensive and complex system.
Requires maintenance and control of the tank.
If it is connected to the mains line, it is useless in case of a water cut.

As a result, when buying a booster, it is important to choose the model that suits your needs and budget. Fluid control booster systems are simpler and cheaper, but consume more energy and wear more. Expansion tank booster systems are more expensive and complex, but more efficient and comfortable.
