screw coMPACToR - SERCOMP +
PRINCIPLE
A ribbon Archimedes screw pushes and presses the refusals through Ø3 m perforated
metal sheet of the compacting strainer. At the end of it, a back
pressure gate maintains the refusals until it forces its opening.
The drained water is gathered and then headed towards the pump station.
DESIGN FEATURESThe SERCOMP+ compactor are composed of the following features :Casing made of stainless steel sheet with a opening corresponding to the working width of the sieve. In its lower part, a polyethylene double lining reduces frictions and the wear of the screw. Draining area in the lower part of the screw ensuring drains gathering – this preliminary area is helped by the inclination (around 5°) of the screw. Compacting area with only one upper door containing the draining drum (strainer) with Ø3 mm perforated metal sheet : length of 500 mm. In its upper part, the strainer is over-mounted by a wetting ramp. In its lower part, this area includes a tubular pipe to retrieve drained water from compacting and leads it to the draining area where a second pipe will evacuates all drained water from the compactor. Two diameters available for our Archimedes high-gauge steel screw :150 or 200 mm, according to refusals capacity. |

APPLICATIONS & BENEFITS
SERCOMP+ compactors are usually
installed after screening or sieving equipment, in order to reduce the
volume of the refusals and their content of water.For urban application only, SERCOMP+ ensures a 50% reduction of the volume and a 30 % minimum (35% performance target) of refusals dryness.
OPTIONS
AISI 304 L standard construction, optional 316 L.
Inclination of the screw to convoy wastes higher.
Extension of the screw to convoy wastes further.
