Cable carrier instead of conventional solution
This sewage treatment plant decided against a conventional cable drum solution and opted for an igus® LBT flizz® cable carrier system instead. The result: the system has been operating without any interruptions since the year 2000.
In the final clarifiers, sludge settles and is collected by longitudinal scrapers which operate at speeds of 3.3 ft/min, 24 hours a day, 256 days a year. Originally, a cable drum was used, but this solution contributed to increased wear.
