Inside of the Facility
EBARA CORPORATION (EBARA) completed the construction at the Shin-Senda Pump Station (the Station), which plays a role in draining rainwater in the urban areas of Hiroshima City. Combining the newly added pump, the total drainage capacity of the Station has increased by 1.4 times as before.
The center of Hiroshima City is located in the lowlands of the Ota River basin, and at high tide, the ground becomes lower than sea level. Therefore, it is expected to increase the drainage capacity of the Station against flooding caused by heavy rainfall due to recent abnormal weather. EBARA resolves a wide range of water supply and sewerage issues by offering comprehensive engineering services including proposals, design, procurement, installation construction, and after-sales services for pumping equipment.
Having a standby feature, the pump equipment runs at full speed dealing with a large inflow of water when sudden heavy rain falls. (※)
