A Hydro-Pneumatic Booster Set is a sophisticated water distribution system that combines high-performance centrifugal pumps with a pressurized air/water vessel (the Accumulator Tank). Unlike a standard pump that must turn on every time a tap is opened, this system uses stored pressure in the tank to handle low-demand usage. When demand increases beyond the tank's capacity, the pumps activate to maintain a consistent flow.
EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd specializes in the custom design and maintenance of these sets, providing the "hidden strength" behind the water pressure in Klang Valley’s most prestigious hotels, hospitals, and luxury high-rises.
Vertical Multistage Pumps: Usually configured in sets of 2 to 4 pumps. These are the "heart" of the system, capable of reaching high pressures while remaining energy-efficient.
The Hydro-Pneumatic Tank: A vessel containing a rubber bladder filled with pressurized air. It acts as a "buffer," storing water under pressure so the pumps don't have to start for every small glass of water.
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Controllers: The "brain" that modulates pump speed. Instead of harsh "On/Off" cycles, it ramps speed up and down smoothly based on the exact pressure required.
Smart Manifold & Valves: These ensure that if one pump needs maintenance, the others automatically take over, ensuring zero downtime for your facility.
By utilizing VFDs and the accumulator tank together, the system eliminates the "pressure dip" often felt when someone else in the building turns on a tap. This is critical for guest satisfaction in the hospitality industry.
The pumps only run when the demand exceeds the storage of the pressure tank. By avoiding frequent "short-cycling," the system uses significantly less electricity and reduces heat generation in the mechanical room.
The air cushion in the hydro-pneumatic tank acts as a shock absorber. It absorbs the kinetic energy of moving water, preventing the destructive pressure surges that burst pipes and damage high-end plumbing fixtures.
A hydro-pneumatic system is only as good as its air-to-water ratio. If the tank loses its air charge, the pumps will start and stop every few seconds (cycling), which leads to motor burnout. We perform precision pre-charge tuning to ensure optimal system balance.
We program the control panels to rotate which pump is the "lead" unit. This ensures equal wear across all motors and impellers, extending the overall lifespan of your investment.
In potable water systems, the internal rubber bladder must be food-grade. We provide ISO-certified replacement services for worn bladders, ensuring your drinking water remains uncontaminated.
High-pressure sets can be loud. We utilize Digital Laser Alignment and spring-isolated bases to ensure your booster set is the quietest part of your building.
As an MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) specialist based in Selangor, we provide a turnkey solution. We manage the heavy mechanical rigging, the complex electrical wiring, and the digital sensor integration as one unified project. Our systems are engineered to meet the high-demand requirements of Malaysia’s commercial infrastructure.
