Summary/Abstract: : In the operation of centralized water supply systems, approximately 90%of used energy is electricity, out of which a significant share, of over 80%, is consumed bywater distribution in networks equipped with pumping stations.In the last decades, in orderto adapt systemsto the variable requirements of users, the watersystems are provided with pumps driven by variable speed controlled motors.In order to reduce the power consumption when water is delivered to consumersaccording to their demands, it is necessary to improve the pumps operating efficiency.The paper presents a series of aspects regarding the defining of the opportunity forretrofitting and rehabilitate the pumps within the Chiri a pumping station.
