The use of hydrotechnical equipment and pump stations

Hydraulic structures — structures erected for the use of water resources or to combat the erosive effects of water, according to the functions of hydraulic structures are divided into 2 groups — structures of general importance and special purpose structures.Hydraulic structures of general importance include drainage, intake, drainage and water-regulating structures. Gutters (dam, dam) create water pressure or water level differences in front and back of the structure.

A pumping station is a building designed to lift liquids upwards; a structure consisting of a pumping unit and pipes. The pumping station includes control devices, and in the case of an electric pump-switchgears, reduction substations, assembly-suction and pressure manifolds, additional equipment (vacuum pumps powering main pumps, fire hydrants, oil mills, etc.).
