The project:
Aeration of the moat and operation of artificial stream with waterfall in the baboon and ringtailed lemur enclosure.
Executing company:
APS Augsburger Pumpenservice
The problem:
The water in the baboon enclosure moat must be aerated to keep it free of ice in winter so that the baboons cannot escape from the enclosure across the ice. A robust pump was also needed for the artificial stream.
Our solution:
A 50TRN2.75 pond aerator with 750 W motor rating was installed in the moat. The water in the moat is kept in constant motion using a 100UZ43.7 wastewater pump with vortex impeller. The artificial stream is operated using robust cast iron KTZ22.2 and KTZ32.2 sewage pumps.
