-2- The pumping rate.N.B. To avoid disturbance & noise the Pumping time is limited to 4 hours
/day ( CIBSE B4).If for example , the Pump has to refill the empty overhead tank in 4
hours ,the pumping rate becomes 40 m3 / 4 h = 10 m3 /h.If however ,the Pump has to refill the empty overhead tank in 2 hours
.Decision has to be made by the consultant engineer to determine the
pumping time ,for example one or two hours .The um in rate is not the o eratin oint or dut oint of the um .
It is an estimated value used to estimate the flow rate in the pipe. Theactual pump discharge is obtained from =>Intersection of the pipesystem curve and pump performance curve.
