SUMP PUMP
(1 Working + 1 Assist)
Purpose: Pump Room Drain
HEAD CALCULATION
Vertical Length = 3.75 Meter
Horizontal Length = 5.5 Meter
Total Length = 3.75 Meter + 5.5 Meter = 9.25 Meter
Losses = 20 % of Total Length
Friction Loss = 5ft/ 100ft = 0.05
Head Loss = Vertical Length + Losses
= 3.75 Meter + (9.25 * 1.20 * 0.05)
= 3.75 + 0.55 Meter = 4.30 Meter
= 0.43 Bar
The sump pump head selected @ 0.5 bar
SUMP PUMP FLOW
Sump Pump Length x Width = 0.6 m x 0.6m
Farthest Connection = 2.7 Meter; 82mmØ; slope = 1:60
Lowest Level of Pipe = (2.7 m * (1/60)) + 0.15 m = 0.195 m
The depth of the Sump pit is 0.60 m.
Water Depth in the Sump Pump = 0.6 m – 0.195 = 0.405 m
Sump Pit Volume = 0.6 m x 0.6m x 0.405m = 0.1458 m3
Drain the pit in 10 second.
The pump flow = 0.1458 x 10sec /60 min = 0.0243 m3/min
= 0.40 L/s
Sump Pit Dimension: 0.6 Meter x 0.6 Meter x0.62 Meter
& The Sump Pump flow selected 5.0 L/s @ 0.5 bar.
