Installation Kit

The Secomak Gas Booster connection kit includes all parts that are mandatorily required when installing the booster. These include two flexible connectors, a non-return valve, inlet/outlet pressure switches, gaskets, and anti-vibration mounts. These parts are supplied as part of the initial booster kit but are also available separately if required.

Flexible Connectors

It is recommended that flexible connectors are replaced every 5 years to ensure safety and efficiency. Irrespective of this if any visible signs of wear or damage are existent then the flexible connectors should be replaced immediately. Secomak stock a full range of replacement parts for their gas boosters and are constructed in accordance with the recently published BS 8487.

Bearing Assembly

Secomak Gas Boosters use a completely sealed bearing unit, minimising the risk of dirt and dust ingress, whilst reducing wear and heat output. These bearing assemblies are available for Gas Products (Yellow) and BioGas products (Red). To comply with British Standard 8487:2007 and ensure the most efficient and reliable product lifespan, Secomak recommends that the bearing assembly is replaced every five years.

Drive Belts

To ensure safety and efficiency all Drive Belts should be replaced annually. If a drive belt is thrown from its pulley this indicates a sign of wear on the belt and should be inspected closely. If you are unsure of how to do this or to change your drive belt, then do not hesitate to contact us. Secomak stock a full range of replacement parts for their gas boosters and are constructed in accordance with the recently published British Standard 8487:2007.

Acoustic Enclosure

The Acoustic Enclosure are designed to reduce operational noise levels. A noise reduction of around 10-15dB (A) can be achieved whilst still maintaining the performance and motor cooling. The enclosure is designed to be fully demountable and have panels secured by quick release toggle clips. When using an enclosure it is highly likely our gas sensor system will also be required to meet the requirements of DSEAR.

Non Return Valves

Non-return valves are a means of preventing a reverse flow and in accordance with the Gas Act 1972. Usually, NRV’s are installed after the booster to stop any flow of gas coming back into the booster. These are a necessity of duty and standby designs but are highly recommended on single boosters as well to protect the gas booster. These are available in sizes 2”,3”,4” as standard, with larger available on request.

Gas Reservoirs

Gas regulations state that gas pressure to the gas booster must not fall below 10 millibar. Some installations are known to experience issues with transient drops in pressure, often caused by the slow reaction time of a gas meter. In such cases, Secomak recommend a Gas Reservoir. It is simple to install and should solve the main issues for gas booster tripping.

All Gas Reservoirs are strengthened tightness tested prior to dispatch and painted with one coat of red oxide primer paint

Installation: The Gas Reservoir inlet should be connected directly to gas service and should not be fitted with isolating valves.

It is recommended that the gas reservoir branch connection is installed downstream of the main booster inlet isolating valve, prior to the flanged inlet connection on the gas booster.
