The project:
Breakdown of calcareous sandstone in the quarry to obtain cement
Performing company:
HeidelbergCement AG, Burglengenfeld
Project lead at Tsurumi:
Mr. Christian Kulik (External Sales Force Bavaria)
The problem:
Deepening the Burglengenfeld quarry.
Continual transport of groundwater and artesian water. The water to be transported contains sand and is very abrasive.
The solution:
Use of KRS822 model pumps with 22kW motor power in the open drainage, equipped with a level control using electrodes. The KRS series is an energy-saving low-speed pump with a 4-pole motor. The speed of rotation is only half that of pumps with 2-pole motors, that is, wear is significantly reduced.
