Extreme length sludge conveying

This large WWTP had a specific need due to space restrictions for long run, high capacity, fully sealed shaftless screw conveyor systems. SPIRAC was contracted to supply two long run U500 conveyors, 50m (164ft) and 48m (158ft) long, each on a single gearbox.

These conveyors feature triple section spiral reinforcements and long life Duraflo Type SPX liners. Commissioned in mid 2007, these conveyors have operated maintenance free until 2012 where the first liner and partial spiral changeout was required.

What They Are Saying

SPIRACs engineers had an uncompromising commitment to develop and manufacture a leading inlet works solution within time and budget, allowing us to develop a sustainable plant for the future

Great system. We have it onsite at Rubyanna WWTP, recommend them for any plants for the future or even retrofitting! Flawless and easy! Also recommend SPIROTAINER. Less than 5 minutes from entering site with one and leaving with a full one! Great idea guys.
