The Pumps tab enables users to document a pump's location and other attributes, including its manufacturer, model number, size, serial number, and classification. An agency can also record the pump installation date and project number. The tab records pump specifications as well, such as its various diameters, elevations, and part types. Several fields with a unique purpose are defined in the table below.
Field Name |
Definition |
Location |
The location of the pump slot from the Pump Station Inventory, Pumps tab. (Read-only.) This field remains blank if:
|
Pump Size (in) |
The physical dimensions of the pump unit. |
Pump Classification |
The category of pump (e.g., booster, wet well, above ground, etc.). |
Pump Capac (gpm) |
The capacity, in gallons per minute, of the pump at the specified operating point. |
Total Dyn Head (ft) |
The total head, in feet, at the specified operating point. |
Impeller Dia (in) |
The size, in inches, of the impeller installed in the pump. |
Number of Stages |
Usually equal to the number of impellers installed in a pump. |
Priming Type |
The type of priming used on the pump (e.g., flooded suction, vacuum, water, etc.). |
Pump Controller |
The method used to control the pump (i.e., local or remote). |
SS End Type |
The type of end on the suction side of the pump. |
SS End Dia (in) |
The diameter, in inches, of the pump's inlet. |
SS C/L Elev (ft) |
The elevation, in feet, of the suction piping centerline. |
DS End Type |
The type of end on the discharge side of the pipe. |
DS End Dia (in) |
The diameter, in inches, of the pump's outlet. |
DS C/L Elev (ft) |
The elevation, in feet, of the discharge piping centerline. |
Risk |
Calculated as: (Consequence of Failure x Probability of Failure). |
