PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Electric motor driven peripheral pump with bypass, complete with an automatic control 
system consisting of flow switch and electronic control.

APPLICATION

The Flomate is a mains booster pump with an automatic control system for domestic 
use, designed to assist the pressure from the mains supply, where the mains pressure is 
insufficient.  This unit requires a minimum unassisted supply flow of 0.6 l/min to operate.
The pump is limited to producing a maximum flow of not greater than 12 l/min, and a 
maximum pressure of 3.0 bar.
When the flow/pressure from the rising main exceeds the pump output, the 

patented 

applied for integral bypass will direct the water into the system as normal.

The Flomate mains booster is a patent granted design.
