2. Pressure tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_tank

   The diaphragm or bladder may itself exert a pressure on the water, but it is usually small and will be neglected in the following discussion. Case 1 is an empty tank at the charging pressure P c (gauge). The total volume of the tank is V t. Case 2 is a tank in use, with the air pressure at pressure P (gauge) and a water volume of V. Referring ...

3. Water supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply

   Pressure in an urban water system is typically maintained either by a pressurised water tank serving an urban area, by pumping the water up into a water tower and relying on gravity to maintain a constant pressure in the system or solely by pumps at the water treatment plant and repeater pumping stations.

4. Pressure vessel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_vessel

   The ASME definition of a pressure vessel is a container designed to hold gases or liquids at a pressure substantially different from the ambient pressure. [2]The Australian and New Zealand standard "AS/NZS 1200:2000 Pressure equipment" defines a pressure vessel as a vessel subject to internal or external pressure, including connected components and accessories up to the connection to external ...

5. Water distribution system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_distribution_system

   An example of a water distribution system: a pumping station, a water tower, water mains, fire hydrants, and service lines [1] [2]. A water distribution system is a part of water supply network with components that carry potable water from a centralized treatment plant or wells to consumers to satisfy residential, commercial, industrial and fire fighting requirements.

6. Pressure sewer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_sewer

   The pumping well and pump controls require expert maintenance and repair should they fail. [1] Electricity is required to power the pump and this cost would typically fall on the local house-holder. Although the pump well is usually designed to accommodate several days storage, failure of the pump or of the local electricity supply for an ...

7. Pumping station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

   High service pumping of finished water at high pressure Distributed system booster without a storage tank in the piping system Water pumping stations are constructed in areas in which the demand or projected demand is reasonably defined, and is dependent on a combination of customer needs and fire flow requirements.
