BOOSTER PUMPS
Hale booster pumps offer the added dimension of low volume and high pressure for use with the
midship pumps. The booster is ideal for high pressure, hose reel operation.
As shown in Figure 1-12, the booster pump is designed for direct mounting at the accessory port of
the Hale gearbox. The booster pump is driven by the gearbox intermediate gear to provide a
positive drive.
Water is directed to the booster pump through a pre-piped supply hose. The optional air clutch
allows the water flow to the booster pump to be closed off.
