    1.2.2 Sludge Pump With Poppet Valves

    The sludge pump is designated with a "KSP" prefix and a size designation of 5, 10, 12, 17, 25, 40, 45, 50, 80, 140 or 220. It is a hydraulically driven, positive displacement, twin-cylinder reciprocating piston pump. The material cylinders are in line with the differential hydraulic cylinders that power the material piston head (ram) in suction and pressure strokes.Separating the material cylinders from the differential cylinders is a fluid filled chamber called the Water Box". The fluid cools and lubricates the material ram as it moves in the material cylinder. The fluid also rinses and cools the differential cylinder rod as it passes through the water box. The chamber also provides access for checking pump wear and for changing the material piston head (ram).

    Figure 1.7 - Sludge Pump With Poppet Valves

    In operation the two cylinders move in opposite directions so that one cylinder is charged with material from the feed system while the other cylinder is pushing material into the pipeline.

    Flow of the material into and out of the cylinders is controlled by four (4) hydraulically actuated poppet valves, one discharge and one intake valve for each cylinder. They are activated in the following sequence:

    1. The pumping pistons come to the end of their stroke, that is, one fully extend-ed and one fully retracted. The hydraulic valve drive is activated and the open discharge poppet closes, and suction poppets change state respectively.

    2. Both discharge poppets are now closed. Hydraulic pressure increases and the pistons start to operate in the opposite directions, one charging and one discharging. As the discharging piston moves forward, the sludge is com-pressed in the delivery cylinder.

    3. At the moment when the compressed sludge in the discharging cylinder equals the pressure of the compressed sludge in the delivery line, the dis-charge poppet opens and material flows into the pipeline.

    Since the poppet valve for the discharging cylinder opens only when the cylinder contents are at the same pressure as the pipeline, no material can flow back into the pump. This minimizes shocks in the pipeline.

    1.2.3 Sludge Flow Measuring System (SFMS) - Poppet Valve KSP

    Schwing Biosets Sludge Flow Measuring System, installed on a Poppet Valve Sludge Pump, monitors the pumping cycle time and calculates pump output. It compensates for pumping (filling) efficiency and relays the flow rate to control equipment or system monitors.

    The Sludge Flow Measuring System consists of two magnetic proximity sensors, two ring magnets mounted on the pressure poppet valve pistons, and special programming within the PLC that controls the Sludge Pump. The sensors are mounted on the sides of the valve cylinders to sense the closed position of the poppet valves. The poppet is closed when the piston is at the limit of its extended travel. See Fig. 1.10 below.

    Figure 1.9 - Pressure Poppet With SFMS Sensor

    Schwing Biosets Sludge Pumps are designed such that at the end of each stroke both pressure poppet valves are closed. During the next stroke one of the poppets stays closed and one of the poppets opens to allow flow to the pipeline (discharge). Opening of this poppet is delayed until the material is compressed and the pumping cylinder pressure is the same as that of the pipeline. The end of the stroke is signaled when both poppets are again closed.

    By timing the full stroke and the compression phase of the stroke, the PLC is able to determine pumping efficiency, flow (in gallons per stroke, gallons per hour, etc.) and limited totalizing.

    PLC Calculation

    Referring to the table below, the Cycle Time for one stroke is T1. The Compression Phase is the time between both poppets closed and one of the poppets opening.

    Pumping Time T2 is equal to T1 minus the compression time.

    Pump Efficiency is Pumping Time divided by Cycle Time.

    Flow Rate is Material Cylinder Volume times Efficiency divided by Cycle Time.

    1.2.4 Screw Feeder

    The Screw Feeder increases pump efficiency by pressurizing the material feed into the pump suction. It consists of a feed trough with twin rotating augers that receive material from a feed hopper and convey it through a transition housing to the intake of the Sludge Pump.

    The augers (or screws), are driven by a gear box with a hydraulic motor driven by the Power Pack.

    1.2.6 Material Pipeline

    The pipeline used to convey the sludge from the pump to its destination may be supplied by Schwing Bioset or others. Generally it is pressure-tight steel pipe with bolted couplings. See Sludge Pump Installation drawing in your O&M manual for size and configuration of the discharge pipeline. Pump connection to the material pipeline must allow for safe disconnection from the pipeline to allow service of internal pump parts.

    1.2.7 Sliding Frame Silos

    The Sliding Frame is a bridge-breaker; when in operation it ensures mass movement of material through the silo and into the receiving conveyor or pump.

    The Sliding Frame, which is inside the silo, is attached to the Extension Shafts which pass through the wall of the silo and attach to the cylinders which are on the outside. The silo wall openings are effectively sealed by means of the Stuffing Bpx seals on the Extension Shafts.

    1.2.8 Push Floor

    The push floor system is designed to receive and temporarily store the large and periodic quantities of material. The push floor can take these uneven loads and provide a consistent discharge through the conveyors and pumps. The push floor moves the material to the inlet of the extraction screw conveyor. The screw conveyor will then move the material to the screw conveyor outlet. The push floor moves the material through the use of the moving frame sections. Hydraulic rams move a push bar down the length of the floor. The floor scrapers are designed to push material in one direction, while minimizing material movement on the return stroke. The floor sections are constantly moving, with the two outside sections moving in the opposite direction of the middle section for multiple scraper configuration.

    1.2.9 Pipeline Lubrication System

    The pipeline is used to convey the sludge from the pumps to either the sludge loading station or the post liming station. Due to the nature of the material being pumped, pipeline pressure may build up under certain conditions. Wet biosolids sludge tend to pump well and does not usually require lubrication. The higher the solids concentration of the biosolids, the more resistance to pumping and higher the resulting pipeline pressure. The pipeline lubrication systems are provided to inject a layer of water in the pipeline, reducing fiction along the pipe walls, and reducing the pipeline pressure. The lubrication pumps supply a small quantity of water to a lubricating ring. The ring installed in the pipe injects a constant flow, forming a thin film of water along the inside surface of the pipe. The pump can be set to automatically start whenever the pipeline pressure exceeds a given pressure for a sustained time period. Initial setting for pump start-up is 300 psi.

    1.2.10 Automatic Greaser System

    The automatic greaser system serves to minimize the need for frequent lubrication maintenance by supplying periodic injections of grease to the equipment. The lubrication system provides grease to the push floor hydraulic cylinders, bearings on the metering screw conveyors and the seals on the twin screw augers. The system is a simple electric pump that runs on a timer. Grease is pumped to the equipment based on a programmed timing interval. The time can be independently programmed for each of the application points.

    Whenever doing any maintenance on the inside of the pump, i.e. replacing poppet valves or piston heads, the pump discharge must be disconnected from the pipeline prior to starting work on the pump.

    WARNING! DANGER - CONFINED SPACE! When entering a silo to perform any work, follow the guidelines below. Serious injury or death may occur if proper guidelines are not followed.

    ALWAYS -Establish a confined space entry program. Perform a confined space hazard analysis and follow local regulations dealing with confined space entry.ALWAYS -Clean the silo of material to prevent hazardous gases or collapse of bulk materials.ALWAYS -Wear personal protective equipment required (hard hat, boots, respirator, hearing protection, etc.).ALWAYS -Have a rescue plan established BEFORE a person enters a confined space. Safety lines attached to the person working in the confined space, and a means to pull them to safety, can prevent a rescuer from being exposed to the same hazard encountered by the worker.ALWAYS -Provide adequate ventilation of fresh air. Natural ventilation alone may not be sufficient to maintain breathable quality air.ALWAYS -Have air quality tested by a qualified person BEFORE entering a confined space, and continually monitor until the work is completed.ALWAYS -Have at least two (2) persons present when performing work in confined spaces; one (1) person must stay outside of confined space as an observer in case of emergency.

    Keep unauthorized personnel away from the work area during maintenance.

    Establish and maintain an active Safety and Accident Prevention program for operators and maintenance personnel.

    Practice good housekeeping for equipment and surrounding areas. Keep the area around the equipment clean and free of obstacles to provide easy access and to avoid interference with its operation.

    Other sections of the O&M manual contain specific safety recommendations for INSTALLATION, STARTUP, ADJUSTMENTS & CHECKS, AND MAINTENANCE. See the Table of Contents and study and review these sections also.

  • SAFETY REGULATIONS SECTION 2

    KSP Training Manual 2 - 5

    WARNING! DANGER OF INJURY FROM RAPIDLY EXPELLED MATERIAL! Before working on the material pipelines, RELIEVE THE PRESSURE on the line by selecting the reverse position of the pump for several strokes.

    Sludge discharge lines are operating under high pressure. Extreme caution and proper safety practices should be followed whenever the flanges are being loosened or the clamps removed from the sludge discharge line.

    To relieve the pressure in a sludge discharge line, follow these steps:

    1. Place the screw conveyor or conical hopper in the reverse position.

    2. Tighten down the throttle valves until they are completely closed, then open them 1/2 turn. (Located on the control block)

    NOTE: If your pump is equipped with the SFMS (Sludge Flow Measuring System) you must fully open the throttle check valves located on the discharge poppet hydrau-lic cylinders.

    3. On manually operated control blocks (older models) place the S-1 spool in the reverse position and let the pump kit stroke in reverse for a short period of time.

    4. Observe the hydraulic cylinder rods for the discharge poppets to verify that they are moving. (If they are not moving assume that the line is still pressur-ized.)

    5. Observe the hopper to see if any sludge is coming from the pump into the hop-per. Also observe the discharge line pressure gauge to see if it is dropping (if so equipped).

    6. Open the pressure bleed off valve to release any residual pressure remaining (if so equipped).

    7. Shut the pumping unit off and disconnect all power sources. Remove the flanges and clamps, using the proper safety procedures.

    Do not install or repair damaged pipes, fittings or hoses. Replace damaged hydraulic hoses immediately.

    Lifting equipment, cables, chains, etc., are to be connected only at the lifting points provided.

    Establish and maintain an active Safety and Accident Prevention program for operators and maintenance personnel. Good Preventative Maintenance programs are essential for a good Safety Program.

    3.2 HYDRAULIC PUMPSHydraulic pumps are used to create flow (GPM) in a hydraulic system.(Hydraulic pumps do not create pressure)

    There are 4 basic designs of hydraulic pumps:

    1 Piston Pumps:a. Radial Pistonb. Axial Piston

    I. Bent AxisII. Swash Plate

    STYLES: AVAILABLE CONTROLSFixed Displacement 1. ManualVariable Displacement 2. Horse-power regulated

    3. Pressure Compensated4. Pressure cut-off

    Piston pumps are rated in CC (Cubic Centimeters) or CID (Cubic Inch Displacement) perrevolution.

    The efficiency of this pump design remains high throughout its pump life. The efficiencydrops off very quickly at the end of the pumps life.

    They are designed for high pressure and high range of RPM.

    2 Gear Pumps:a. External Gearb. Internal Gear

    I. GerotorII. Crescent

    Gear pumps have a nominal rating in GPM at 1000 PSI and 1200 RPM. They are gener-ally designed for medium range hydraulic pressure and RPM.

    The efficiency of this pump design declines gradually throughout its pump life. It is sogradual that it is hardly noticeable until it has deteriorated considerably.

    3 Vane Pumps:

    Vane pumps have a nominal rating in GPM at 1000 PSI and 1200 RPM. they are gener-ally designed for medium range pressure and RPM.

    The efficiency of this pump remains high throughout its pump life and drops quickly at theend of the pumps life.

    4 Screw Pumps:

    These pumps operate at various pressure ranges and RPM's. There design is mainlyused when a hydraulic system can't tolerate any hydraulic pulsations.

    3.3.3 The Basic Relief Valve

    This is a direct acting non adjustable relief valve. When the oil has enough pressure to over take the spring the relief poppet will start to move out of the way and allow the excess pressure to be relieved to tank. This style pressure relief is not adjustable except by changing the internal spring.The maximum system pressure that this style can be used for is limited because the spring must directly act upon system pressure and thus higher pressures would require a larger spring. When this direct acting design relieves it causes pulsations in the system.

    Figure 2.17 - Direct Acting Non-adjustable Relief Valve

    This is a direct acting adjustable relief valve. When the oil has enough pressure to over take the spring the relief poppet will start to move out of the way and allow the excess pressure to be relieved to tank. This style is adjustable though a external control which varies the spring tension on the relief poppet.The maximum system pressure that this style can be used for is limited because the spring must directly act upon system pressure and thus higher pressures would require a larger spring.

    This is a pilot operated adjustable relief valve. The relief poppet has a small orifice in it that allows the hydraulic pressure to also be applied on the back side of the poppet. This internal chamber is hydraulically locked and it will hold the main poppet closed as long as it has equal pressure on the front side and the back side. There is also a much smaller pilot poppet, that is operator adjustable. This smaller poppet, with a smaller area, can have a smaller spring controling it. Once this pilot poppet opens we lose our hydrau-lic lock, the pressure is reduced on the back side and thus the main poppet can relieve the excess pressure to tank. With this design we are able to control large volumes of oil at high pressures with minimal sized springs.
