EN 16932-1:2018 (E) 5 Introduction Drain and sewer systems are part of the overall wastewater system that provides a service to the community. This can be briefly described as: — removal of wastewater from premises for public health and hygienic reasons; — prevention of flooding in urbanised areas; — protection of the environment. The overall wastewater system has four successive functions: — collection; — transport; — treatment; — discharge. Collection and transport of wastewater is provided by drain and sewer systems. EN 752 provides a framework for the design, construction, maintenance, operation and rehabilitation of drain and sewer systems outside buildings. This is illustrated in the upper part of the diagram in Figure 1. EN 752 is supported by more detailed standards for the investigation, design, construction, organization and control of drain and sewer systems. Investigation and assessment standards include: — EN 13508 (all parts), Investigation and assessment of drain and sewer systems outside buildings. Design and construction standards include: — EN 16932 (all parts), Drain and sewer systems outside buildings — Pumping systems; — EN 16933-2, Drain and sewer systems outside buildings — Design — Part 2: Hydraulic design; — EN 1295-1, Structural design of buried pipelines under various conditions of loading - Part 1: General requirements; — EN 1610, Construction and testing of drains and sewers; — EN 12889, Trenchless construction and testing of drains and sewers; — EN 15885, Classification and characteristics of techniques for renovation and repair of drains and sewers. Management and control standards include: — EN 14654 (all parts), Management and control of operational activities in drain and sewer systems outside buildings. To support these detailed standards information can come from specifications produced by individual organisations for their own use. Product standards take also into account the functional requirements in EN 752 through EN 476, EN 13380 and EN 14457. SIST EN 16932-1:2018

EN 16932-1:2018 (E) 11 4 General EN 752:2017 specifies functional requirements and principles for the planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of drain and sewer systems outside buildings. EN 752:2017 requires that the design and operation of the system shall, so far as practicable, minimize the use of energy over the life of the system. Pumping stations can be necessary in gravity drain and sewer systems in order to avoid excessive depths, or to drain low lying areas. They can also be necessary at combined sewer overflows or outfalls in order to discharge flows toward treatment works or receiving water bodies. Pressure or vacuum systems can be used as alternatives to, or as part of systems operating essentially under gravity. Pumping systems shall be designed in accordance with the principles described in EN 752:2017. For positive pressure systems, this European Standard shall be read in conjunction with EN 16932-2 and positive pressure systems shall also meet the requirements of EN 16932-2. For vacuum systems, this European Standard shall be read in conjunction with EN 16932-3 and vacuum systems shall also meet the requirements of EN 16932-3. 5 Health and safety The principles for occupational health and safety set out in EN 752:2017, Clause 7, should be applied to the design, construction and operation of pumping stations, pressure systems and vacuum systems. The Safety and Health Framework Directive (89/391/EEC) together with its daughter directives and other relevant safety and health directives can apply. A number of these are listed in EN 752. NOTE National or local regulations or the relevant authority can specify additional requirements regarding the health, safety and welfare of the public and operator personnel. The identification and assessment of hazardous situations that can lead to a potential explosion and the design and construction of appropriate safety measures shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1127-1. Electrical equipment for use in potentially explosive areas shall comply with the requirements of the relevant parts of the EN 60079 series. Non-electrical equipment for use in potentially explosive areas shall comply with the requirements of the relevant parts of the EN 13463 series. 6 Types of pumping systems 6.1 Introduction There are four principal types of pumping systems: — single pumping station systems discharging into one or more rising mains; — lift stations either without a rising main or with a short, essentially vertical, rising main; — pressure sewer systems with several pumping stations discharging through one or more rising mains to a single point; — vacuum sewer systems with a single vacuum station collecting wastewater from a number of sources through one or more vacuum mains. SIST EN 16932-1:2018



EN 16932-1:2018 (E) 12 6.2 Single pumping station systems These comprise a single pumping station discharging into either a single rising main or two or more parallel rising mains as shown in Figure 2. They are sometimes necessary within a drain and sewer system that otherwise drains essentially by gravity.

Figure 2 —Example of a single pumping station system 6.3 Lift stations 6.3.1 General A lift station is a type of pumping station where the discharge point is in the same location as the pumping station. It can include a short, essentially vertical, rising main. Alternatively, lift stations may comprise a screw pump. Lift stations can be used: — to transfer flow between adjacent gravity sewers at different levels; — to lift flows into a wastewater treatment plant or; — to lift surface water flows into an adjacent surface receiving water body. 6.3.2 Pumping stations with screw pumps Pumping stations with screw pumps (see Figure 3) can be used where it is only necessary to lift the wastewater without the need to generate pressure. Pumping stations with screw pumps can be used where the lift is limited to a few metres and where there is little variation in the water level at the discharge. They are resistant to blockage.

A pressure sewer system is designed to collect and transport domestic or industrial wastewater. It is not usually used for the collection and transport of surface water. Pumping stations are connected to the pressure pipe(s). The downstream boundary of the system is the point where the total flow from the system discharges into a downstream system (e.g. into a gravity sewer, a manhole or wastewater treatment plant). A typical house connection to a pressure sewer system is shown in Figure 4. An example of a plan of a typical pressure sewer system is shown in Figure 5.

A vacuum sewer system is designed to collect domestic and industrial wastewater and is not usually used for the collection of surface water. Vacuum mains have a vertical profile containing slope sections (sections that slope downwards in the direction of flow) followed by lift sections (see Figure 6).

Sub-atmospheric pressure is transmitted from the vacuum vessel through upstream vacuum sewers and vacuum drains to collection chambers (see Figure 7). An interface valve is provided in each collection chamber keeping the vacuum dr
