Distribution networks
Distribution network infrastructures
source of intake (surface water, groundwater)
the treatment plant
pumping station
water tank
distribution network
Distribution network framework
Mesh network
Branch or star network
Mixed network
Distribution network accessories
– sectioning pieces (valves, control accessories,)
assembly and intervention parts (junctions, seals...)
Fire protection device, extraction, washing
Branch fittings (taps)
Network protection piece (purger, air vent) 2
Pressure regulators
Distribution systems
Gravity system
The distribution is done by gravity: it is the system.
ideal because there is no consumption
of energy therefore no pump is
required.
System with pumping and storage
It is the most common. Storage tanks.
placed in carefully chosen locations
feed the locality by gravity.
System with pumping and direct discharge
in the network
System to avoid because of its operation
the pump is subject to variations in demand
schedule (flow and pressure variation) 3
