A condensate pump at sea level draws water from a condenser in which a 27.5 inHg vacuum is maintained. The friction and turbulence loss in the piping between the two is estimated to be 4 ft. What minimum height of water level in the condenser above the pump centerline must be maintained if required suction head of the pump is 12 ft for the maximum capacity of the pump?
