Basic Engineering Elements - Introduction

I liked a YouTube channel - Beginning Engineers.

There are interesting videos in it. One is on industrial engineering that starts with the statement that I promote. Industrial Engineering is System Efficiency Engineering.

I plan to give the links of the videos in this site in this blog. Industrial engineers have to understand the productivity implication of each engineering element and use that understanding to improve the productivity of resources and reduce the cost of products and processes.

Sewage Pump Check Valve

Pump stations are characterized by pressure surges due to the sudden velocity changes associated with the starting and stopping of pumps. Specially engineered check valves or pump control valves are often needed on the discharge of the pumps to prevent slam and/or minimize pressure surges while surge relief and anticipator valves provide protection from excessive surges resulting from power outage or pump failure.

GA Industries provides a full range of water hammer and surge control solutions for water, wastewater and sewage pumping applications.  We can provide expert advice on the application of check valves, pump control valves, and surge relief valves for your next pump station project.
