No.2 settling basin overflow conduit automatic cleaning device
Every day at a certain time this device
automatically runs inside the settling basin of the sewage treatment
plant and removes the algae and slime growing or attached on the overflow
conduit. This is the device newly developed in Japan.
The conduit cleaning work is made with fully automated machines.
The
cleaning work using human hands is one of "3K works" ("kitsui" ? hard,
"kitanai" ? dirty, and "kiken" ? dangerous works) workers do not like.
Besides, the degree of the danger of cleaning work by hand is very high!
| Full automation |
The cleaning work in the conduit and movement
and up-and-down of the carrying-in device can be fully automatically
controlled with the control panel. Automatic control is possible. |
| Shortening of the cleaning
time |
Cleaning speed: 6m/min.
One conduit (supposed to be 30m) -> about 10 minutes
Every nook and corner can be cleaned.
Cleaning of the concrete conduit is possible by changing the cleaning speed and the number of revolutions of the brush. |
Improvement of the degree
of cleanliness |
Even overflow water and cleanliness is
always ensured. |
| Access range |
The range of movement can be established
at your option. |
| It is possible to clean conduits of difference
sizes. |
With 400 to 800mm, height 400 to 600mm |
| The conduit can be cleaned without being
damaged. |
Since the tip of the brush is soft, the
conduit can be cleaned without damage. |
