EKON, EKOS columns

Aeration and air release EKON columns and drain flushing EKOS columns guarantee safe operation and give a possibility of precisely situating pipeline congestion

The basic functions of the EKON, EKOS columns are draining and supplying large air volumes, protecting the pipeline from hesitating pressure, dry running pumps, waterhammers.

The EKON columns have the air release valve which ensure the correct operation of pressure pipeline and the EKOS columns serve as revision.

The EkoWodrol columns are multifunctional and guarantee safe operation. In traditional solutions the air release valve is located in the manhole chamber.

Key features

1. ŁATWIEJSZA EKSPLOATACJA PRZEPOMPOWNI

Specjalna konstrukcja zaworu umożliwia łatwy dostęp do wnętrza przewodów tłocznych, wirnika lub samej kuli, bez potrzeby demontażu zaworu. Nasi klienci wykonują serwis zaworu o średnicy DN80 w ok. 5 minut. Obsługa pozostałych zaworów trwa od 2 do nawet 4 razy dłużej.

2. MNIEJSZE KOSZTY SERWISU

Plastikowe sztućce, pieluchy czy koszulki – to także spotykane rzeczy w kanalizacji ściekowej, mogące łatwo zatykać zwykłe zawory. Zawór SZUSTERsystem jest w pełni otwarty już przy prędkości przepływu 0,7 m/s co czyni go odpornym na zatykanie. Aby to udowodnić, przeprowadziliśmy test który możesz obejrzeć na naszym kanale na YouTube.

3. OSZCZĘDNOŚĆ MIEJSCA W PRZEPOMPOWNI

Kompaktowe rozwiązanie 2w1 (kolano, zawór zwrotny) lub 3w1 (kolano, zawór zwrotny, zasuwa nożowa) ze zmniejszoną liczbą połączeń kołnierzowych pozwala oszczędzić znaczną ilość miejsca w przepompowni ścieków, a tym samym zmniejszyć koszty budowy inwestycji.

1. SAVE TIME AND OPERATING COSTS FOR WATERWORKS

Thanks to the use of a hydrant stand with a manovacometer, it is possible to precisely locate the blockage and then, through the quick coupler, attach the hydrant stand and start flushing the discharge pipeline in the place where the blockage occurs.

See the principle of operation of EKON and EKOS Columns.

2. SAFETY OF SERVICING FOR WATERWORKS

The columns are operated only from the ground level. Thanks to the use of a quick coupler and a hydrant stand, employees do not have contact with sewage, thus avoiding the dangers related to, for example, poisoning with hydrogen sulphide.

3. LOWER CONSTRUCTION COSTS FOR CONTRACTORS

The columns require smaller building area than concrete wells with a vent, so the trench for their installation does not have to be as wide or deep. The installation of the column itself is also much faster, often without the need to use heavy construction equipment or involvment of many workers.

Working principle

Technical details

Our columns are especially recognized by the Users of sewage systems. Servicing, safety and ease of use decide on popularity of this solution. They can be used for flushing and draining of the pipeline under pressure in any direction and for aeration of the pipeline in sections threatened by vacuum. In addition, the can serve for air release of the pipeline in the highest points of the sewage transport network on long ascending or descending sections of the pipeline, before throttling places and after the pumps are used.

Range of available diameters: DN50–DN200

✔  Nominal pressure: PN 1.0 MPa or PN 1.6 MPa.

✔  Flange connection: PN-EN 1092-2.

✔  Sewage with or without feacals, rainwater and industrial.

✔  Sewage temperature from 5°C to 70°C and pH 4-8.

Operation principle

The assembly is performed on the horizontal section of the pipeline in a vertical position with a maximum deviation of +/- 2°. An important advantage of EKON, EKOS columns is the ability to precisely locate the congestion, that has formed in the discharge line. It is possible thanks to the mounted vacuum manometer on the standpipe unit. By analyzing the pressure drop, the section which is not drained can be accurately determined.

By using the gate valves on both sides of the columns and the innovative quick coupling, which should be plugged into the standpipe, it is possible to make the column retooling. The selected section must be flushed of the congestion and then restored to its original condition. The whole operation should take less than 15 minutes.

The operators during operational activities are exposed to the threat of deadly poisonous gases such as hydrogen sulfide and explosive methane. The EKON, EKOS columns eliminate these serious threat, because the servicing operations are performed from the ground level.
