Description
Vertical diaphragm tank GBV 750 IBO ITALY
The IBO ITALY GBV vertical diaphragm tank is a pressure vessel designed to stabilize pressure and increase the effective volume in water supply systems. As the manufacturer, we design GBV tanks with a carbon steel body and EPDM diaphragm to reduce the frequency of pump activation and extend the service life of the entire hydrophore system.
Who is it for?
- Water installation companies – we provide a proven component for building efficient hydrophore systems, with complete technical documentation and Dambat support.
- Installation engineers and designers – we provide a device that meets the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, making it easier to select the system’s operating parameters.
- Farms and horticultural businesses – we enable a stable water supply from private water sources, reducing the number of pump activations and energy consumption.
- Industrial enterprises – we ensure constant pressure parameters are maintained in utility water supply lines.
- Wholesalers and technical stores – we offer a product from the IBO ITALY line that expands the range in the high-capacity diaphragm tank segment.
Applications
- Operation with surface and submersible pumps in complete hydrophore systems.
- Supplying raw-water intake systems in single-family and multi-family homes, farms, and businesses before the water treatment process.
- Pressure stabilization in water supply systems and increasing the effective volume of water supply systems.
- Storing and distributing clean water in systems free from chemical liquids, oils, or petroleum-based substances.
The GBV vertical diaphragm tank is designed to operate with raw/untreated water from private water sources, without solid particles, before the water treatment process – detailed operating conditions are specified in the manufacturer’s documentation. The tank is not a water treatment device and does not confirm that the water is suitable for consumption; if the water is to be used for drinking purposes, it must be appropriately treated.
Features, description, and technical data
The GBV diaphragm tank belongs to the Dambat manufacturer’s IBO ITALY line – a series comprising vertical diaphragm tanks with capacities from 50 l to 2000 l, designed for water supply systems requiring a large effective working volume. The EPDM diaphragms used in IBO ITALY devices are manufactured in an Italian factory, confirming the quality-oriented nature of this line.
The tank body is made of thick carbon steel coated externally with a special anti-corrosion coating. Inside the vessel is a replaceable EPDM diaphragm that completely separates the stored water from the steel shell of the device. The space between the diaphragm and the housing is filled with compressed air at a specified pre-charge pressure of 3.0 bar (±10%). In the upper part of the tank, beneath the cover, there is a sealed valve that allows the air pressure to be checked and adjusted.
The GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank meets the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. Using it in a hydrophore system helps limit the number of pump starts within a given period, which positively affects the service life of the entire installation.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank
What is the GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank used for?
The IBO ITALY GBV diaphragm tank is used to stabilize pressure and increase the effective working volume in water supply systems. Combined with a surface or submersible pump, it forms a complete hydrophore system, reducing the frequency of pump activations and extending the service life of the entire system.
What is the difference between the IBO ITALY line and the standard IBO line?
IBO ITALY is a Dambat product line associated with Italian component manufacturers – among other things, the EPDM diaphragms used in tanks from this series are manufactured in an Italian factory. The IBO ITALY line includes vertical diaphragm tanks with large capacities (from 150 l to 10 000 l), designed for more demanding water supply systems. The standard IBO line includes a wide range of pumps and water equipment covered by a 24-month manufacturer’s warranty.
Where can the GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly online. The GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank is available from our commercial partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors cooperating with the Dambat brand.
What is the warranty period and where can servicing be arranged?
The GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank is covered by a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty. Dambat is the only authorized service provider, ensuring efficient diagnosis and repair of the device in accordance with the manufacturer’s requirements.
How can the air pressure in the GBV tank be adjusted?
A sealed valve located in the upper part of the vessel, beneath the cover, is used to check and adjust the air pressure. The pressure can be increased or reduced using a standard compressor. The recommended pre-charge pressure is 4.0 bar (±10%) – this value should always be selected according to the system’s operating parameters.
Is the GBV tank suitable for water containing sand or other contaminants?
No. The GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank is not designed to operate with media containing abrasive substances (e.g. sand or clay), or chemical, oily, or petroleum-based substances. The presence of solid particles in the medium may abrade the EPDM diaphragm and permanently damage the device. Before connecting the tank, we recommend using pre-filters in the installation.
Which pumps is the GBV diaphragm tank compatible with?
The GBV IBO ITALY diaphragm tank works with both surface and submersible pumps, provided that their operating parameters (pressure and flow rate) do not exceed the permissible values specified in the vessel’s technical documentation. Dambat recommends selecting a pump in accordance with the designed performance characteristics of the entire hydrophore system.
