SCLK SUBMERGED AERATORS: The Advanced Solution for Water Treatment

SCLK pressurised submersible aerators represent cutting-edge technology in the field of water treatment.

With a range of power sizes from 7.5 to 37.0 kW, these aerators offer exceptional performance in the background aeration process thanks to their innovative design and advanced features.

SCLK submerged aerators: effective mixing for optimal treatment

An SCLK submerged aerator is composed of a gearmotor that works in synergy with a large impeller with a low number of revolutions.

This combination allows the sludge to be taken from the bottom of the tank and to be mixed effectively with the air coming from the blower.

The mixture thus obtained is then spread radially through channels arranged on the hydraulics, a structure of robust construction made of AISI 304/316 steel alloy.

This process ensures a uniform distribution of sludge and air, favouring the oxidation process and improving the overall quality of water treatment.

Versatility and adaptability to requirements

One of the distinctive advantages of SCLK submerged aerators is their versatility. These aerators are able to handle very variable air loads, reaching a flow rate of up to 2500 m3/h per machine.

This means they can cope smoothly with peak loads that often occur in “seasonal” plants.

In addition, the aerator can be used for the insufflation of air or, sometimes, even pure oxygen, depending on the specific needs of the system.

This flexibility allows the amount of oxygen required in the tank to be modulated, adjusting the amount of air coming from the compressor and the number of revolutions of the aerator through a dedicated inverter.

In situations where oxygen demand decreases, the aerator could function as a mixer, while still ensuring effective mud circulation.

Addressing the challenges of different treatment plants

SCLK pressurised submerged aerators are designed to cope with challenging conditions in civil or industrial water treatment plants.

These aerators are able to work with very high water levels, up to 13 metres, without being affected by the overheating of the incoming air.

This also makes them suitable for plants in which the sludge has high densities or varying concentrations, or deposits or abrasive materials such as carbonates or flours are present.

In addition, thanks to their low rpm hydraulics with ample free passage, SCLK submerged aerators do not suffer from the problem of abrasion or clogging of the diffusion system. This feature ensures optimal operation and constant efficiency over time.

SCLK pressurised submerged aerators: constant performance and simple maintenance

SCLK pressurised submerged aerators offer constant oxygen transfer efficiency over time.

Thanks to their robust and reliable construction, these aerators only require normal routine gearmotor maintenance, which can be performed without having to stop the machine.

This allows the water treatment plant to continue operating, minimising downtime and ensuring greater overall efficiency.

What are the main fields of application of these SCLK series submerged aerator models?

This type of SCLK series aerator is intended for use inside deep tanks. In addition, they are ideal for large oxygen requirements when carrying out precise processes, namely:

• sludge stabilisation;
• flotation;
• oxidation;
• ozonisation.

Considering that these aerators are very easy to install, they can also be placed inside full tanks, without it being necessary to empty them.

In addition, these submerged aerators guarantee high yields and reduced energy consumption, factors that last a long time. These characteristics are also not related to the presence of possible clogging.

How do you install SCLK series submerged aerators?

Among the advantages offered by SCLK series submerged aerators is the ease of installation of such systems. In fact, they rest directly on the bottom of the tub. The machine, suitably ballasted, manages to remain perfectly in position.

Subsequently, the suction tube, which can be rigid or flexible, is positioned above the liquid surface. The latter element must be attached to the edges of the tub. Alternatively it can be attached to the walkway, if present. The compressor, on the other hand, is installed on the side of the tank.

Conclusions

SCLK pressurized submersible aerators are an advanced and reliable solution for water treatment.

Thanks to their innovative design, versatility and constant performance over time, these aerators offer an effective solution for mixing and background ventilation in civil and industrial plants.

Addressing the challenges of sewage treatment, these aerators are able to guarantee excellent water treatment quality, minimizing the necessary maintenance and optimizing the overall efficiency of the plant.

Choosing an SCLK pressurized submerged aerator means investing in cutting-edge technology to achieve superior water treatment results.
