Solids separation system at IFAT
Milling machine for pump parts
KSB plans to present AmaDS³, a solids separation system for waste water disposal in pumped drainage applications, at the IFAT water and sewage show, which takes place from 7-11 May in Munich, Germany.
Climax Portable Machine Tools has developed a portable milling machine that can re-machine pump parts on site.
The AmaDS³ is a combination of a patented, dry-installed solids separation system and two wastewater pumps in back pull-out design. The raw wastewater flows into a separator where the solids are separated from the liquid, and the solids-free waste water flows into a collecting tank where it is collected until a pre-set level is reached. The pump set is started up via a control system and pumps the waste water from the collecting tank into the discharge line. During this operation, the solids are flushed out of the separator and into the discharge pipe as well. The pump set is switched off once the wastewater level in the collecting tank has gone down to the pre-set minimum level and at the inflow check valve opens automatically and raw sewage can again flow into the separator. As the wastewater handled by the pump’s hydraulic system is mechanically treated, pumps with smaller free passages and highly efficient hydraulic systems can be used, enabling operators to achieve

considerable energy savings and to keep operating costs down. KSB says that AmaDS³ is still economically viable in the case of high heads or long discharge lines, and the service life of the entire station is longer than that of conventional systems. Since the pumps handle solids-free water only, the risk of wear and clogging is extremely low. The pumps as well as the system’s most important components can be reached comfortably and without getting wet, and the separators are located outside the collecting tank. This ensures that the system can be serviced or repaired while it is in operation. The collecting tank is gas-tight and features a central vent.
The machine, reportedly the world’s first, is designed with a split rail system that enables the milling machine to be configured to perform both linear milling and gantry milling. Excess vibration can cause damage to internal components in pumps, motors and other rotating and reciprocating machinery and ultimately may lead to a shutdown in operations. The product can re-machine pump motor mounts, base plate or platforms on site to exact tolerances, allowing the equipment to get back on line and in full operation. A rigid, modular bed design allows shorter bed sections to be combined to fit the length of the work area as needed without losing
rigidity, and to extend the bed by 2 or 3 times its original length. In-house and field service machinists who work in power generation, mining and heavy construction, oil and gas, processing, and shipbuilding industries can now perform on-site machining of a wider variety of large surface areas without multiple setups. The machines are available in two models, the LM5200 and the LM6200. The Climax LM5200 model can be configured to bed lengths of 48, 72 and 96 in (1219.2 mm, 1828.8 mm and 2438.4 mm) and RAM lengths of 26 or 44 in (660.4 mm or 1117.6 mm) while the Climax LM6200 model can be configured to bed lengths from 48 to 192 in (1219.2 mm to 4876.88 mm) with RAM lengths of 36, 48, 82 and 116 in (914.4 mm, 1219.2 mm, 2082.8 mm and 2946.4 mm). www.cpmt.com
KSB’s AmaDS3 is available in six different sizes with a maximum head of 85 m and a maximum inflow rate of 120 m3/hr. www.ksb.com
