Why Environ Make Aerators & Clarifiers are preferred

 
 
Comparision of DESIGN features for Aerators,
the heavy cantilevered loaded machine to run 24 hours.
 
ENVIRON MAKE (UPTO 50HP) OTHER MAKES
   
 
Cantilevered load reaction is passed through additional bearings, and housing to beam base bottom to RCC platform. So gearbox is not at all affected by overhung load. So life of the gearbox is increased.
 
Cantilevered load reaction is passed through gearbox Output shaft to bearing, to gears, to body, to studs support to platform. Hence more vibration and more Maintenance of the gearbox.
Floor/base support area is 100 times more, so possibility of vibrations is reduced accordingly.
 
Floor support area is too less so more possibility of vibrations.
Due to conical Impeller and Solid MS shaft, CG lies nearer to center, so less impact loading.
 
Center of Gravity (CG) of the system (cantilevered impeller) lies in the periphery, hence more impact loading.
These unbalanced cantilevered loads are NOT passed to the gearbox, but those loads are taken by TWO EXTRA bearings and housing. So life of the Gearbox is increased.
 
Unknown, heavy, cantilevered, unbalanced loads are directly taken by the gearbox output shaft, bearings and gearbox itself. So life of the Gearbox is reduced.
Heavy Beam BASE is used so vibrations are lessened and again the base is machined on the TOP surface so the life of the Gearbox is increased.
 
Since there is NO BASE, heavy vibrations are expected, which will reduce the life of the Gearbox.
Since shaft is fully machined, NO possibility of VOUBLING of shaft concentric running of impeller is ensured.
 
Since Tubular shaft is used, there is a possibility of VOUBLING of shaft.
Since Horizontal foot mounted motor is used, the conditions are not severe as those of flange mounted motor.
 
Since the motor is Flange mounted, it becomes Special (non standard) and probability of another Motor in STOCK is very less. So in case of flange mounted if motor got burned, the Aerator remains STOPPED till the motor is rewinded.
Spares of the worm gearbox are easily available at comparatively lower cost.
 
Spares of the helical gearbox are not easily available & their cost are comparatively higher.
Wetted Parts are FRP Lined.
 
Wetted Parts are Epoxy Painted.
Specially designed Impeller is offered for HIGHER WATER DEPTH upto 4.5 to 5.0 mtrs. Aeration Tanks. (Less area for Aeration Tank is required, so saving in space.)
 
Only one design without the consideration of higher water depths.
UNDER OUR QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN each & every Aerator is Ranned for 2 hours in our INHOUSE HYDRAULIC TESTING FACILITY before despatch.
 
No testing activity is carried out.
 
 
"ENVIRON" make Clarifiers Installations
are more than 1500 Nos. throughout India.
 
Technically ENVIRON make Clarifiers are having following PLUS POINTS., as indicated below, which results in Trouble free running of mechanism and MINIMAL maintenance.
 
Comparison of Clarifier Mechanism
 
ENVIRON MAKE   OTHER MAKES
Hand operated sludge arm lifting device, is offered as standard incase of overloading occurs due to sustained stoppage Clarifier can be restarted within a matter of 15 minutes.
 
No such device is provided. So incase of overloading due to sustained stoppage if arms get emmbedded in sludge one has to pump out the effluent and normally sludge is to be removed. This results in DOWN TIME of several days.
 
Sufficient numbers of scraper squeegees are provided on each arm, so that there is a overlapping of the scraper blades. There is no radial gap between successive squeegees.
 
To reduce the load on the drive, half nos. of squeegees are provided on each arm. So effective scraper arm is ONE only and NOT TWO. There is a gap between two successive scraper squeegees. Hence scraping efficiency is reduced drastically.
 
Bottom Central Sludge well Scraper, we provide this scraper. So that there is no compacting of the sludge in central well. So the load on sludge pump will decrease and NO CHOCKING will occur.
 
There is no central sludge scraper. Since scraper is not there compacting of sludge occurs, which will result in chocking of sludge in sludge lines, hence more load on sludge pump.
 
         
We provide, as provided in all foreign design, the HIGH TORQUE central drive with Girth gear and big bearing, since this final gear has input speed of 7 RPM to 5 RPM and output speed is 0.1/0.08 RPM and has HP rating. Therefore HP rating of our HIGH TORQUE final center drive having 2 service factor is OK, since 1 HP motor is used. This fulfills the technical requirement.
 
No HIGH TORQUE center drive is usded. Instead ready made worm reduction gearboxes available in the market viz. 4"(V-400), 5"(V-500) having ratio 50/60/70:1 is used. This is drastically UNDERSIZED so far as HP rating is concerned. Beacause rating of 4"(V-400) gearbox with 50/60:1 ratio is hardly 0.03 HP at INPUT RPM of 7/5 RPM and output RPM of 0.1 or 0.08 RPM. While motor connected is 0.5 HP or 1 HP. For 2 service factor final gerbox rating should be 2 S.F.X0.5 HP=1 HP. Hence Technically not suitable.
         
 
No such mechanism can be offered.
