_Safety Valves_. --To prevent rupture of the pipe or injury to the pumps, in case the pumping mains should become obstructed, a 6-in. Pop safetyvalve is mounted on the main just beyond the large air-chamber alreadydescribed. These valves are set to release at the maximum workingpressure of the pumps when the regular quantity of water is beingpumped, and they are piped to the adjacent reservoir, so that there isno loss from them. _Check-Valves_. --Check-valves are placed in the pumping main to p...reventthe backward flow of water. There is one near the pumps, and one at theupper end and outside of the reservoir into which the main discharges. _Blow-Off Valves_. --These valves are located in all material valleys ordepressions. _Stand-Pipes_. --Between the gate-valves, at certain points where themaximum hydraulic grade is not more than 60 ft. Above the surface of theground, open stand-pipes are erected. If the grade line is too high, relief-valves are used, as stated. Also at two points, where a steepgrade ends near the ground surface and is followed by a flatter grade, stand-pipes are erected.
