POTABLE WATER BOOSTER PUMP SYSTEM OPERATION The fresh water system will take water from the local water supply to provide water to the pump stuffing boxes, gear oil coolers, the vacuum pumps, and the restroom facilities. The pressure is typica lly 60 psig. If the water pressure falls to 45 psig, a pressure switch on the suction of the booster pump shall turn the booster pump on. The speed of this is controlled by a pressure transmitter on the discharge of the pump. The transmitter shall send a 4-20 milliamp signal to a controller that controls the pump speed. The speed of the pump shall be varied to maintain a pump discharge pressure of 60 psig. The pressure switch on the suction side of the booster pump will turn the pump off when the pressure increases to 50 psig. If the local water service pressure falls to 10 psig, the booster pump will be stopped to prevent the pump from cavitating if the suction pressure is too low. The emergency water well will be manually operated. This will be turned on when the water pressure is considered to be low.
