Description
GBH FIX 50 Diaphragm Tank - IPRO Horizontal Tank
The IPRO GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel is a horizontal membrane tank for water supply and pressure-boosting systems. Inside the steel body is a non-replaceable, certified butyl diaphragm that separates the water from the air cushion, stabilizes system pressure, and reduces the frequency of pump start-ups.
Who it is for
- Homeowners with their own water source - the IPRO diaphragm vessel maintains stable tap pressure and limits the number of pump start-ups during everyday use.
- Water supply system installers - the horizontal design with a base and plastic feet makes it possible to build a compact pressure-boosting unit with a surface pump.
- Farms and allotments - the tank acts as a domestic water buffer and reduces pump load during frequent water consumption.
- Service companies - the certified butyl diaphragm and stainless steel connection simplify selecting a vessel for drinking water systems.
Application
The GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel is designed for water supply and pressure-boosting systems supplied from the mains or from an independent water source, where it stabilizes pressure and protects the pump from starting too frequently. The certified butyl diaphragm allows contact with domestic and drinking water.
The tank is installed horizontally and works with surface and submersible pumps, pressure switches, and control automation. The GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel reduces the effects of water hammer and balances pressure fluctuations in the system.
GBH FIX diaphragm vessel features - description and technical data
The GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel is a horizontal membrane tank with a steel body coated with a two-layer epoxy-polyurethane coating. Inside is a non-replaceable butyl diaphragm with high tensile strength and resistance to high temperatures, while the connection is made of stainless steel. The base and plastic feet reduce the transmission of pump vibrations to the ground.
The diaphragm separates the water from the compressed air, allowing the system to maintain stable pressure between successive pump operating cycles. The tanks meet the requirements of the PED 2014/68/EU Pressure Equipment Directive and EN 13831.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) - IPRO GBH diaphragm vessel
What is the GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel used for?
The GBH FIX 50 diaphragm vessel stabilizes pressure in water supply and pressure-boosting systems and reduces the frequency of pump start-ups. The certified butyl diaphragm allows contact with domestic and drinking water.
What is the difference between a horizontal and a vertical tank?
A horizontal tank is installed in a lying position and often serves as the base of a compact pressure-boosting unit with a surface pump. A vertical version takes up less floor space and is available in larger capacities.
How do you choose the capacity of a diaphragm vessel?
The capacity is selected according to the pump's output and the required number of start-ups per hour - the larger the tank, the less often the pump starts. If in doubt, we encourage you to contact Dambat's technical department.
What is the pre-charge pressure in the vessel, and can it be changed?
The vessels are supplied with factory-set air pre-charge pressure (2–2.5 bar depending on capacity). This pressure can be adjusted to the pump start pressure using the air valve.
Is the GBH FIX diaphragm vessel suitable for drinking water?
Yes. The butyl diaphragm is certified for contact with water intended for consumption, so the vessel can be used in domestic and drinking water systems.
Where can you buy a GBH FIX diaphragm vessel?
Dambat does not sell directly. IPRO diaphragm vessels are available from commercial partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What is the warranty on a GBH FIX diaphragm vessel?
IPRO - 60 months (5 years) manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
