The ECO press has been developed to press as much water as
possible out of the sludge.
This is done as follows:
The sludge is collected in a filter bag, which is placed in
the dewatering container. The container is placed under the
press.
The ECO press has a security grid around the container; this
is protected by a security switch to prevent the pressure
plate operating whilst open.
After closing a pneumatic switch is manually operated and
one or more air cylinders activate the special pressure plate.
The excess water is pressed out of the sludge. After a pressing
time of max.
2 - 3 hours the pressure plate can be raised, the unit opened
and the container removed.
The ECOpress is ready for the next container. To obtain a
better dewatering the system is provided with a delay switch
with 2times,
a pause time of 0,1 - 30 seconds and a press time of 10 minutes.
The ECO press is manufactured to a standard design.
The unit is fitted with a 1/4" compressed air connection
and requires a working pressure of 6 bar. The air consumption
is approximately 130 litres per double movement.
The ECO press can be supplied with capacities of 25, 80, 100
upto 360 litres and purpose design units are available on
request.
In many cases the
ECO press can pay for itselfwithin a year.
