Curiosity...
The three drainage pumping stations are part of a single drainage system, to defend a depressed area located south of the city of Pordenone.
Their activation is fundamental in that particular situations when the Noncello river, that crosses the city, is unable to receive the rainwater from the built-up area.
Particular notes
The use of the three drainage pumping stations result necessary only in particular conditions, after careful evaluation by the service in charge, activated by the Municipality of Pordenone.
Therefore, the design choice opted for an independent type of power supply, through autonomous generating sets, to be activated only in case of real need, avoiding constant unnecessarily expensive feeding commitments. Consequently, the start of
the whole system is carried out by the aforementioned remotely service, even from a mobile phone.
