In any compressed air system, high filtration efficiency is a pre-requisite for high air quality. With this in Hydro Whirl Storm BETE www.bete.co.uk With climate change increasing the frequency of storm events, health and safety legislation resulting in higher costs for manual cleaning methods, BETE says there is a demand, particularly from water utility operators, for an effective way to thoroughly clean storm tanks and screens in an automated way. Generally, storm overfill tanks are cleaned manually where someone with a pressure washer would enter the tank to perform regular cleaning as part of tank maintenance. However, this is a labour intensive process and it also raises safety issues. A solution has now been developed by spray nozzle specialist BETE with the introduction of its HydroWhirl Storm blaster an automated storm tank and screen cleaning system. This system will be particularly appreciated by water utility mind, Atlas Copco's filtration competence team invested a significant amount of time to research and develop the new filter range, which provide for maximum contaminant removal and offer significant energy savings due to their optimal air flow path with low resistance. The filters' carefully engineered housing and cartridge, and a unique and highly efficient head design, also ensure minimal pressure drops which enable users to reduce their operational costs. operators where storm tank cleaning and screening can often be an expensive, labour intensive process, said the company The Storm Blaster can be configured to deliver high-impact cleaning to between 80º and 180º downward spray pattern. This and the combination of its twin head, eight nozzle design, results in powerful cleaning to storm tanks up to 20 metres in diameter with a cleaning cycle of under ten minutes.
