ECS To Install New
Archimedes Screw Pumps
For Severn Trent Water
CS Engineering Services has
been awarded the contract
to replace seven screw
pumps as part of a larger
contract for NMC Nomenca.
Split between two Severn Trent Water
sewage treatment plants, the project
installations are due to start in October
and will run concurrently to ensure a
timely completion.
E
With over 25 years' experience in
delivering projects such as this and an
exclusive partnership with Landustrie, a
leading manufacturer of Archimedes screw
pumps, ECS is able to provide a complete
design, build and install package. In-house
engineering expertise and site engineering
skills provide the necessary support to
complete a cost effective installation.
The first project will involve the complete
replacement of four screw pumps,
gearboxes and motors at the Warmsworth
sewage treatment plant. Here two primary
pumps and two humus pumps have
now reached the end of their serviceable
lives after nearly 45 years' service and
are in need of replacement. Originally
manufactured by Landustrie, the screws
are 14 meters long and 900 mm in
diameter.
The second project involves three
complete screw pump installations at
Melton Mowbray treatment works, which
again are no longer serviceable due to
their extended service life. These slightly
smaller screw pumps measure 8 meters in
length and 800 mm in diameter and will be
replaced one at a time to ensure continued
operation of the works.
Dave Bennion, Project Manager for
ECS, comments: "Our partnership with
Landustrie means that we can get started
on the design and manufacture of the
new screws immediately. At the same time
we will develop the installation plan and
ensure that we complete both projects on
time. It is also essential that we coordinate
the work carefully with Seven Trent Water
to ensure that we deliver the new screw
pumps without affecting the operation of
the treatment works."
