treatment area. <br />2. For systems for dwellings, the dosing device shall <br />discharge at a rate at least six hundred (600) gallons per <br />hour, but no more than two thousand seven hundred (2,700) <br />gallons per hour. <br />3. For other establishments, the dosing device should <br />discharge at a rate at least ten per cent (10X) greater than <br />the water supply flow rate, but no faster than the rate at <br />which effluent will flow out of the distribution device. <br />4. If the dosing device is a siphon, a maintenance <br />inspection shall be made every six (6) months and a report <br />shall be filed with the administrator.. The siphon shall be <br />maintained in proper operating condition. <br />5. If the dosing device is a pump, it shall be cast iron <br />or bronze fitted and with stainless steel screws or <br />constructed of other sound, durable and corrosion - resistant <br />materials. <br />6. Where the soil treatment area is at a higher <br />elevation than the pump, sufficient dynamic head shall be <br />provided for both the elevation difference and friction loss. <br />7. Where the dosing device is a pump, an alarm device <br />shall be installed to warn of pump failure. For dwellings, <br />there should be reserve storage volume equal to one day's <br />sewage flow based on the amounts specified for number of <br />bedrooms in Chapter 150.014C(3). For other establishments, <br />reserve capacity.should be based on the nature of the <br />facility, but in no case shall it be less than twenty -five per <br />cent (25%) of the daily sewage flow. <br />Dosing Devices For Pressure Distributions <br />1. The dosing device shall be a pump which is cast iron <br />or bronze fitted and with stainless steel screws or <br />constructed of sound, durable and corrosion- resistant <br />materials. <br />2. The pump discharge capacity shall be at least seven <br />and one -half gallons per minute for each 100 square feet of <br />soil treatment area. <br />3. The pump discharge head shall be at least five feet <br />greater than the head required to overcome pipe friction <br />losses and the elevation difference between the pump and the <br />distribution device. <br />4. The quantity of effluent delivered for each pump <br />cycle shall be no greater than 25 percent of one day's sewage <br />flow. <br />
