Each pump can discharge 120 lpm @ 120 bar pressure
Hence no. of pump required = 316.8/120 = 2.6 ~ 3 nos.
Each Motor Drive 1 pump, hence we choose main 3x120 L/min + stand by 1x120 L/min.
Total
pump capacity on duty of 360 lpm @ 120 bar + 120 lpm @ 120 bar stand by, utilizing
4 nos. Of
30 kW electric driven motor.
Water Tank for 360 lpm with 30 minutes operation = 360 x 30 minute = 10800 litre
effective
water capacity, therefore water tank capacity with 20% allowance which is of 12960
litre shall
be the minimum water capacity.
