Austria is a country rich in water resources<\/strong> that uses water distribution<\/strong> systems with the most modern technology<\/strong> on the market.<\/p>\n

Although the country’s relief is mainly mountainous due to the expanse covered by the eastern Alps, the states of Vienna, Lower Austria, and Burgenland are mostly plains<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The lack of natural terrain elevations makes it necessary to build water towers<\/strong> to store large amounts of water at a height suitable for pressurising distribution systems.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These gigantic water<\/strong> reservoirs maintain a constant pressure in the distribution systems, either for domestic consumption (drinking water), for industrial consumption, or to store emergency water for fire protection (non-drinking water).<\/p>\n

As they are raised<\/strong> reservoirs, the towers can supply water even during power outages<\/strong>, as they have potential energy<\/strong> produced by the water elevation that is used to push it through domestic and industrial distribution systems. However, the supply cannot last for long without power, as a pump<\/strong> is usually required to refill<\/strong> the tower.<\/p>\n

The tower also acts as a reservoir to help provide water during peak usage times<\/strong> that are typically during daytime hours<\/strong>. The water level in the tower usually drops during these peak hours, and then a pump fills it during the night.<\/p>\n

For this reason, it is necessary to use a stand-by generator set<\/strong><\/a> to ensure the supply of electricity to the pumps that fill the water tower.<\/p>\n

A generator set model II-066 has recently been installed in a water tower in Lower Austria<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The level of environmental awareness<\/strong> that characterises this region is reflected in the generator set chosen for this application;<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Generator set with a high level of soundproofing <\/strong>and an extra muffler<\/strong> that considerably reduces noise emissions.<\/li>\n
  • STAGE 3A<\/strong> engine, which ensures minimum environmental impact due to gas emissions.<\/li>\n
  • Panel with parallel synchronisation with the mains<\/strong>, so that when it is restored in the event of a power failure, there is no power outage between the generator set and the mains.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
