Gut Aiderbichl (https://www.gut-aiderbichl.com/en/) has been working for animals since 2001 and is an important institution for animal welfare throughout Europe. More than 6,000 rescued animals live on our home farms in 6 European countries by now, rescued from the most diverse situations. Currently, 35 different species of animals live on our farms. The animal keepers care for them 365 days a year. Gut Aiderbichl sees itself as a meeting place for humans and animals.

An artificially created lake serving as a reservoir for fire protection, a biotope, and watering place for animals.Unfortunately, the lake´s design did not consider environmental aspects to keep the water in natural ballance which caused problem.

The problem

In the summer months, the standing water tends to silt up towards "environmental collapse" because a natural inflow or outflow does not exist.

The solution

Introduction of oxygen by means of submersible aerators. Three submersible aerators were deployed, each with a motor output of 0.75 kW, which blows ambient air into the water and thereby, increases the oxygen level. An even admixture in the water is ensured through the arrangement of the submersible aerators in the stretch of water. In the summer months, the aerators are in continuous operation, while they are operated on an as-needed basis during the remaining months. Three smaller aerators were consciously selected since a single, large aerator would not be able to guarantee an even admixture.

Specifications TRN

In the event of abrasive and corrosive utilization, stronger wear and tear will take place naturally in certain components. With regards to the above application wear and tear can take place mainly in impeller, agitator, suction plate, shaft sleeve, oil ring, mechanical seal, pump casing, strainer, motor casing and discharge coupling. Depending on the working conditions the lifetime of those parts might vary significantly and can be shorter than the legal warranty period.

In this regard, please pay attention to our general terms and conditions that we also send to you by mail on request.
