Securing Pressure & Capacity in a Growing Network
Pump and booster stations from Priess District Heating are a crucial component in modern district-heating networks – especially in connection with the many expansions that accompany the conversion from gas to district heating. When new residential areas and industrial customers want to connect to the network, this creates a need for targeted pressure boosting to ensure stable operations and the correct level of differential pressure for all consumers.
Pump and booster stations from Priess provide an effective solution – in both supply and return pipelines. The stations are placed at strategic positions in the network so that pressure and flow can be controlled locally rather than centrally, reducing energy consumption and boosting flexibility.
Each station is dimensioned individually and delivered as a complete plug-and-play solution. They are tested and CE-marked at the factory, meaning installation is as simple as connecting to supply pipes and the electricity grid on site. The stations can be supplied in all building types — as walk-in technical cabins, compact stations, subterranean chamber constructions, or modular solutions — all depending on the access conditions and capacity requirements.
A typical Priess pump or booster station is equipped with:
Access is typically via insulated doors, with ample space and working clearance allowing maintenance and replacements to be performed quickly and safely without operational downtime.
Pump and booster stations are used both in new developments and as upgrades to existing district-heating networks. The solution makes it possible to boost capacity quickly and without the need for any major construction work centrally (especially in connection with gas conversions) – accelerating the rollout of green heat to both residential areas and industry.
