The project:
Rainwater disposal in a ballast works
Executing companies:
Schotterwerk Inh. J. Mayer
Eberle-Hald GmbH&Co.KG, Stuttgart
The problem:
Disposal of rainwater with sand and dirt content, height differential of 30 metres. The 22 kW pump used in the past was to be replaced on account of the high repair costs.
Our solution:
Deployment of a KTZ411 running at 11 kW in its cast iron version. Due to its resistance to the effects of sand, this type of pump is ideal for the use in question. In addition, the motor rating used can be decreased by half. In the adjoining concrete works, a KTZ35.5 at 5.5 kW is also in use in the concrete recycling plant.
