Thanks MJCronin and Artisi,
Thanks everyone for your input. Please see the attachment for the proposed pumping and vacuum priming system concept. Any additional comments would be appreciated. It would be great if someone has a project reference or example where a similar configuration has been...
Thanks Artisi and bimr,
We were actually thinking of installing the vacuum priming connection immediately downstream of the vertical turbine pump's discharge head located on the main-floor. This would allow us to prime through the pump column and pump impeller stages and eliminate the need for...
Hi bimr,
Thanks for the excerpt from the Pumping Station Design 3rd Edition for available vacuum priming options. I have also found it an excellent design manual.
I was hoping to get feedback on a vacuum priming system used specifically in combination with a vertical turbine pump with the...
Hi Everyone, I am a newbie to this site.
I was hoping someone out there has seen (or possibly designed) a vertical turbine pumping system with the intake directly connected to the pump suction as per H.I. Standards Figure 9.8.10 - Example 4 (see attached) and used in conjunction with a vacuum...
