BULDNG PLUMBING SYSTEM ry FIGURE 133 AR PRESSURED WATER ISTRIGUTION 6YSTEM Distribution|> Operating Principle of an Air Pressure Water Distribution System When Air is compressed into a closed compartment under atmospheric pressure to the extent of one half its volume content, the pressure will increase up to 15 pounds per square inch (psi). This pressure inside tank is capable of elevating water up to 10.50m high. Should additional water be pumped into the tank to the height of 2/3 its content, a pressure of about 30 psi will register on the pressure gauge. If add. Water is pumped into tank up to % of its content, the pressure will rise up to about 45 psi. Theoretically, the 45 psi is capable of elevating water up to 31.70m equivalent to 10 storey building. Distribution|> Operating Principle of an Air Pressure Water Distribution System The Admission of water inside the Tank will proportionally increase the pressure by displacing a portion of the tank’s air content. This will allow more extended draw of water from the distribution system. The Ideal Air Pressure Range is from 20 to 40 psi. The Tank is provided with an automatic pressure switch control that regulate the starting and the stopping of the motor pump. Engineering Duittes 2 UV) Xe eare.

BULDNG PLUMBING SYSTEM This sophisticated process could deliver water at varying rates needed from 2, 3, or several faucets up to the full demand of the entire building fixtures. bare gitiny tee =O) WATER) DISTRIEBUTIO 4)) Direct Up-feed| Pumping System) The Direct Up-feed Pumping System is a “Triplex Pump” installed to operate in sequence according to the volume of demand. One Pump is larger than the other one. The Principle of operation is simple. When the water demands in small, the small pump called jockey will operate. As the water consumption increases to the point that the jockey pump could no longer cope with, the second larger pump starts automatically to replace the operation of the jockey. bir need te ES) WATER DISTRIBUTIO Up-feed System) Under this principle, only one pump operates ata time, depending upon the volume of water demand. Each pump is equipped with Sensor, programmed ata min. and max. operating pressure with automatic on and off switch depending upon the volume of demand. Under this concept of direct up-feed pumping distribution, the water supply pressure is nearly constant, and the third largest pump operate less frequent, and therefore, less maintenance cost.
