RE: contolling two booster pump stations in serie
Most boosters are either ON or OFF unless you're installing VFD's to adjust speed. The problem with variable speed is the time lag due to line length - this is typically adjusted based on testing - or instrumented and handled back at the control room via hard wire or radio control.
