Multiple pumps dependent on multiple valves

Each pump that needs to be monitored by Line Blockage does not require its own model. Only isolated pipelines should be configured as different models—if product ever flows from one device to another, then those devices should be configured in the same Flow Network. In most cases, a single Flow Network model for each pipeline is all that is needed.

In the example below, both pumps are configured to be considered blocked when they cannot reach a delivery device. The closure of either valve would result in a shutdown of both pumps as they both require that both valves be open. A closure of either valve would disconnect the pumps from the delivery tank. This example demonstrates how multiple devices can be combined into a single model.
