Booster pumps are pumps designed to raise a pressure deemed to be too low within a process. This can be due to a process addition to a system, meaning the added equipment will not function as desired without a higher inlet pressure, or simply due to friction losses being higher than anticipated at design stage, when compared to installation, meaning system modifications are required.

We typically specify our vertical self-priming pumps for such applications to ensure ballast tanks can be emptied fully, and are suitably rated for multiple starts within an hour for short time periods.
