Atlantic Installs Largest Golf Pump Station in the Northeast

Atlantic Irrigation took delivery and installed the largest golf irrigation pump station in the Northeast last week.  Fiddler's Elbow Country Club in Bedminster, NJ selected Atlantic and Watertronics as their team to supply the bulk of their water for the foreseeable future.  The new pump station skid was designed by Irrigation Consulting, Inc. of Pepperell, Mass.  The station accommodates a total of seven pumps in all.




Five of these serve as their primary source of irrigation for 38 holes of their 54 hole facility, there is also a separate pump that will transfer water to the remote storage pond and pump station on demand via radio signal.  The new station also includes a pump dedicated to supplying water for fire suppression for a planned maintenance building replacement.  The total irrigation capacity of this impressive new pump station is rated at 3225 gallons per minute at 125 psi.  Add the additional equipment and functions and this becomes the largest irrigation pump of its kind anywhere in the Northeast.  Atlantic also supplied the 24" C-905 DR-18 PVC Pipe that the zee pipe will connect to, along with all related pipe and fittings.
