Davey Pumps

About

Who is Davey? Davey manufactures booster pumps to increase water pressure in residential and light commercial applications. The dependability of Davey pumps has given the Australian-based company worldwide recognition. Davey booster pumps are centrifugal pumps that use spinning impellers to move water and increase pressure. Many of these pumps come with Torrium 2 technology, referred to as a “built-in brain” that regulates and monitors water flow and pressure. What are Davey pumps used for? • Too boost low water pressure to faucets and fixtures • To increase pressure from a well or another underground or surface water source • To transfer water Where are Davey pumps used? • Convenience stores • Coffee shops • Gas stations • Small and large homes • Yachts • Irrigation Davey BT Series with Torrium 2 BT14-45 • BT : controller or switch (Torrium 2) • 14 : flow in gallons per minute (gpm) • 45 : pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) How to know which booster pump you need? • What is your incoming water pressure? A pressure gauge will help you measure. • Where is your water coming from? Are you on public or private water supply? • How many stories does your home or building have? The larger your home, the greater the boost of pressure you’ll need since 1 psi is lost with every 1.3 feet added. Larger homes have more plumbing, and multi-story homes require a greater lift. • What’s your maximum water flow rate? How many showers and other fixtures could you have on at a time? Learn how to determine flow rate . • What’s your demand? How much more pressure do you need? The more pressure needed, the more flow required. What makes Davey pumps unique? The Torrium 2 The Torrium 2 is a pressure controller with a special computer chip, or “built-in brain.” This controller monitors water pressure to protect your pump from high temperatures, dry running, and strong electrical currents. The controller prevents the pump from cycling off and on with any decrease in pressure. Its “brain
