The company has been involved in a number of pump stations. These have been almost exclusively in the water reticulation industry. Recently, we received an appointment to undertake redesign and supervision of the beach front sand pumping system.
The most challenging water pump station has been the Durban Heights booster pump station, working in association with Goba (Hatch).
This work has given us a better insight to the hydraulic considerations necessary for the electrical engineer to be able to provide an effective design.
In all cases the system control has required PLC and SCADA design and specification.
