pressure called for in the technical specifications. Individual pump pressure, flow, RPMs, volts, amps, KW
and power factor shall be documented for verification by the consulting engineer or owners' representative
prior to delivery upon request.
SECTION 11: ON-SITE START UP
Shipping, off-loading and setting of pump station to be by purchaser. Technical start up shall be furnished

SECTION 12: ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT (options to be described in the Technical Specification)
12.1 Lake Level Controls (Optional; must be called for in the Technical Specification)
The irrigation reservoir shall be continuously monitored by an electronic pressure transducer which will
send a continuous 4-20ma signal to the PLC. The reservoir level will be read on the Touchscreen
operator interface in inches. The user shall be able to control the remote signal activation level by making
the desired adjustments on the screen. When low, (set point), level has been maintained for the pre-set
period of time, a 120 v AC signal shall be sent to a dry contact relay in the pump station panel to activate
the start signal for a fill pump or valve. Upon a rise in the reservoir level the signal will stop and the relay
will drop out to stop the filling operation.
12.2 Motor Space Heater (Optional; must be called for in the Technical Specification)
The pump station will be supplied with 120 volt space heaters in the motor windings of each VHS motor to
prevent condensation during non-use times. The heaters will be inoperative while the motors are running.
12.3 Remote Monitoring Software (Optional; must be called for in the Technical Specification)
