PUMP SELECTION
To assist with the selection of self-priming pumps, we
have created the following hypothetical example. We
believe the problem and its solution to be typical of a job
that might confront engineers and users.
We shall assume there is a requirement for a wastewater
collection system that will require a lift station to pump
the wastewater to a pretreatment collection system.
The following data were acquired by actual accurate
measurements.
