that's called a jockey pump.Boosts pressure in times of need.It'll blow the lines out the ground if the sensours malfunction causing it to fire up with no release. That was a friday evenin call out to a plant we had ran the fire line around.Blew a 8 inch 90 degree bend out and they were swearing it was our"shaddy" work.We fixed it and poured 2 yards of concrete behind it for backing. A day later they put the system back on line and in a short amount of time,lines were leaking inside the building.Jockey pump was in a little building outside the plant out of hearing.Fired right up and boosted pressure to allmost 300 psi. They never apologiesed for calling our work "shaddy".
