System
•
Stage 1
–
•
Vermin Control System
2 stage system
Vents are Termimesh Stainless Steel 316 Mesh
• Ant Proof
• Will not rust
• Easily cleaned
Stage 2
–
–
Entry & Exits are cable glands only
Conduit sealing systems in cable zone
Keeping vermin out = Longer life

System
•
•
Low maintenance cooling systems
Series 1
–
–
–
–
–
•
Cooling Control System
Ceramic fans (No bearings)
Very Long Fan life
Thermostatic controlled (Constant Temperature)
Low power consumption so run on batteries
Cooling calcs have been carried out
Series 2
–
–
–
–
–
–
Entry & Exits are cable glands only
Rear external venting of VSD
No heat in the box all external
Thermostatic controlled fan internal & external
Cooling calcs have been carried out
Also have requirement for heating if required in cold environments
Constant cooler temperature = Longer life
Multi
Alarming
System
•
Multi Alarming System
Local alarming have provided a strobe with a near vandal
proof cover which we have developed in house
•
Local relay based control system for backup critical well
and simple control system
•
Log Faults last 5-10 faults locally
Anti
Vandalism
System
•
Anti Vandalism System
Robust locking systems
–
–
•
316 handle that takes standard padlocks
3 point locking system for door
Provide specialised light cover design
–
Vandal proof light cover
•
Solid 316 stainless steel construction
•
Since we use standard boxes easy to replace if it
gets smashed or damaged.
Backup

Backup Power Systems
Designed are per regulations
DS3 & DS9 Marechal inlets and lockable covers
Lockable Gen-set inlet covers
Backup Batteries system
–
–
12 /24 Volt battery backup
Batteries correctly charged and discharged and floated
correctly
Good battery management = Longer battery life

MAS 711 support for ITT Flygt pumps over 70kw capacity
•
ITT Flygt support for the MiniCas II relays
•
Handheld plug in laptop with full mimics etc
•
Product improvement working constantly with vendors to improve
the product. When you have a standard, vendors are more likely to
take feedback

Standard
Systems
•
Standard Systems
Standard Parts we have standardise on a set of parts for ease
of sparing
•
Standard Drawings provide comprehensive easy to read
drawings
•
Standard Boxes we use standard B&R so easy to modify and
get quantity quickly also to carry out upgrades
•
Standard Testing is carried out on all units using a automated
SCX test system
•
•
•
Standard Operating procedures
Standard Manuals improve the quality of manuals
Standard Training
Standard systems = Save Money
Generation Issues Resolved
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
DC breakers (No fuses)
Front panel switch and alignment integration
Correct battery charging
Labels (all screwed on)
Phase failure relay
All in one motor control (thermal/magnetic/contactor)
etc

The Benefits
Capital Costs
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Electrical pump station costs decreased
No tender or tender specification required
No electrical design required any more for tender
Much lower install costs
Able to sell to developers with profit
You get what you want
Generation 3 board provided not a Generation 0

The Benefits
Operating Costs/Time
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Increased life = Decreased whole of life costs
Reduced visit to pump stations
Reduced overflows (EPA fines)
Lighting Protection = Overflow reduction
Spares & time to repair, quicker response times
More knowledge of each site for operators
Training and documentation is much better
Our Unique Position

•
•
•
•
•
•
Award winning switchboards (IPWEA)
We have built our systems on whole of life costs (Operating
efficiencies) not built for a price.
Tender= Built for a price
We have already done the hard work of tendering and vendor
selection. The best product for the best price.
Full range covered (1.1kw to 160kw) VSD
(1.1kw to 15kw) DOL / Soft starter
Available of the shelf (3-6 weeks delivery)
Longer Life
Local Government ACT 1993 (Part 3)
Clause 55 “What are the requirements for tendering?”
(3) This section does not apply to the following contracts:
“a contract entered into by a council with another council”
We now have Generation 3 boards not Generation 0
