Vertical GBV 1000 pressure tank – IBO ITALY booster tank
The vertical GBV 1000 pressure tank is a 1,000 l booster tank from IBO ITALY. It stores water under pressure and stabilizes pressure in the booster system, reducing how often the pump switches on. Inside, an EPDM diaphragm separates the water from the compressed gas cushion.
Who it's for
-
Booster system installers – the 2" connection and EPDM diaphragm make it easier to install the tank in a booster system.
-
Systems with booster pumps and their own water supply – the tank stabilizes pressure and reduces the number of pump cycles during water consumption.
-
Facilities requiring a reserve of pressurized water – the 1,000 l capacity provides a suitable usable volume between pump cycles.
-
Technical service – the EPDM diaphragm and adjustable pre-charge pressure make commissioning and system inspections easier.
Applications
The vertical GBV 1000 pressure tank stores water under pressure and stabilizes pressure in the booster system, reducing how often the pump switches on and wear on the system.
Used in pressure booster systems powered by surface or submersible pumps. The GBV 1000 tank is installed vertically on the pump discharge side.
GBV 1000 tank features – description and technical specifications
The tank body is made of steel coated with a protective exterior finish that increases corrosion resistance. Inside, an EPDM rubber diaphragm separates the water from the compressed gas cushion and limits its contact with the inside of the tank body. This design maintains a reserve of pressurized water and stabilizes system operation.
The factory pre-charge pressure for this model is 4 bar ±10% and should be adjusted to the pump’s cut-in pressure. The tank is suitable for systems with a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar and a temperature range of −10 to 100°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Vertical GBV 1000 Diaphragm Tank
What is the vertical GBV 1000 diaphragm tank used for?
The IBO ITALY GBV 1000 tank stores water under pressure and stabilizes pressure in the booster pump system. It reduces how often the pump starts and protects it from excessive cycling.
How does the GBV tank differ from the GBH version (horizontal)?
The GBV tank is installed vertically and is designed for booster pump systems. The GBH version (horizontal) differs in its installation orientation; horizontal GBH models are available in capacities from 24 to 150 L. Both types have an EPDM diaphragm and operate at up to 10 bar.
What is the pre-charge pressure of the GBV 1000 tank?
The factory pre-charge pressure for this model is 4 bar ±10%. For the booster pump system to work correctly, adjust the pre-charge pressure to just below the pump’s cut-in pressure.
How do I install the vertical GBV 1000 diaphragm tank?
Install the tank vertically, with a 2" connection, on the pump’s discharge side in the booster pump system. An isolation valve is recommended to allow servicing, and the pre-charge pressure should be checked before startup.
Where can I buy the GBV 1000 diaphragm tank?
The manufacturer does not sell directly. The IBO ITALY GBV 1000 tank is available from commercial partners, plumbing wholesalers and authorized online distributors.
What is the warranty on the GBV 1000 diaphragm tank?
The IBO ITALY GBV 1000 diaphragm tank comes with a 36-month (3-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Dambat provides warranty and post-warranty service.
