The article analyzes the control system of the Kovali-3 booster station. A number of shortcomings in the equipment, the system itself and the principle of operation are revealed. An automated pump control system based on frequency-controlled electric drive is proposed for modernization of the pumping station. The algorithm of the system operation is described, which is based on the principle of situational control. A brief analysis of the possibility of using wireless channels for data transmission within the pumping station and at higher hierarchical levels is given.
