Vermin Control System 2 stage system
• Stage 1– 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
VerminControlSystem
Cooling Control System
• Low maintenance cooling systems• Series 1
– 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
CoolingControlSystem
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
MultiAlarmingSystem
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.
AntiVandalism
System
Backup Power Systems
• Backup Generator Sockets 4 Pole change over switches
– 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

Systems
System Compliance
• AS/NZS 3000:2007– Thermistor protection – Full load isolation switches– 4 pole Gen-set changeover switch– Interlocking Door Panels– Earth leakage detection G.P.O’s
• Local service and installation rules• OH&S (Work cover safe working)
– Isolatable switch board– Viewing Windows– Easy to operate– Standard procedures– Standard training– Standard manuals
SystemCompliance
Future Proofing
• 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
• Main Vendors– B & R Cabinets– Serck Controls– Schneider Electrics
FutureProofing
Lightning Protection System3 Level system• Stage 1
– 3 Phase primary parallel lightning protection• Protect VSD’s etc
• Stage 2– 1 Phase mains to control system
• Control system protection• Radio• Telemetry controller• Other control devices
• Stage 3– All 4 – 20mA inputs protected– All Digital I/O via a relay– Plus radio lightning protectionEffective lightning protection = Longer
life

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
StandardSystems
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
• 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 BenefitsEFFECTIVEDESIGNSAVES
$
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
EFFECTIVEDESIGNSAVES
$
• 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
