Stable water pressure is essential not only for the efficient operation of water supply systems, but also for the effectiveness of fire protection systems, including fire sprinkler systems. Without adequate safeguards, a sudden surge in water demand can disrupt system operation. CGH hydrophore tanks provide water storage and a constant flow under the required pressure, which is essential for sprinkler systems to operate effectively in the event of a fire.
Fire protection installations – CGH hydrophore tanks provide a water reserve and maintain the required pressure in fire suppression systems, including fire sprinkler systems used in hotels, office buildings, supermarkets, and other large-scale buildings. This ensures a rapid and effective response to fire, minimising the risk of damage.
Water supply networks – CGH tanks stabilise pressure in water supply networks, ensuring continuity of water supply and storage in the event of sudden surges in demand.
Water supply systems – They support water delivery in residential, industrial, and agricultural buildings, ensuring stable pressure at every stage of water distribution.
Industrial installations – CGH hydrophore tanks maintain constant pressure in technological processes requiring a reliable water supply, which is critical in many industrial sectors.
