COMPACT BOOSTER SET PACKS A PUNCH

THE NEW META SMALL SELF-PRIMING booster set from Calpeda offers reduced energy consumption, low noise, improved recycling potential, and plug-and-play functionality in a compact package.

Available in single- and two-pump sets, the Meta Small features near-silent operation thanks to an innovative fanless design employing an asynchronous motor.

The pump is equipped with an integrated pressure transducer, and check valve and a built-in pressure vessel and has been designed for light industrial, commercial and domestic water boosting applications. Thanks to its versatility and robust design, the Meta Small is also suitable for a wide range of applications such as irrigation.

The Meta Small is controlled by an integrated variable frequency drive (VFD) which minimises energy usage, an environmental benefit which is also an advantage in the current cost of living crisis. Running for five hours per day over ten years, the Meta Small will use around 9,100kWh less energy than an alternative booster set not using a VFD. This equates to a saving of 8,200kg of CO2. The use of 304 stainless steel in its construction further demonstrates the booster set’s sustainability credentials, making it easier to recycle the set compared to plastic-based alternatives. While the use of stainless steel has also ensured the device is fully Regulation 4 compliant and KIWA approved for potable water

Commenting on the launch of the Metta Small, Ryan Hall, Sales Director at Calpeda UK, said: “Despite being one of the most compact booster sets on the market, the Meta Small packs a real punch and offers a wide range of benefits. Installers will appreciate the plug-and-play functionality, which means that parameters can be set up quickly and easily. End-users will benefit from the near-silent operation and, of course, the low running costs. And companies supplying the set can keep their inventory holding down thanks to the wide duty range the Meta Small can cover.” www.calpeda.com
