C0001-C0013, C0015-C0093 | Floating Suctions

Floating suctions compared with perma-

nently fixed bleeding nozzles have the follow-
ing advantages:

Advantages of
Floating suctions Design Features

* The product always is transferred in a defined * Internally fixed at unloading

distance under the liquid level
tube
* Contamination dirt/sediments/solid particles
and heavy fluids remain on the tank bottom * Consisting of an elbow-tube-
* Therefore constant quality independent from system with a suction opening
liquid level which is held close to the liquid
* Ease of steering and long lifetime due to ball level by a float (see drawing)
bearing
of swivel joints * Various designs, depending on
* Easy mounting due to internal swivel joint the tank dimensions and types
flanging
* Robustness against pressure conditions
* Sizes: DN 50 to DN 500
(pressure variations) in tank and tube
* Minimal vortex formation through optimized
inlet with anti-vortex suction C0001-C0013
* Pressure-proof floats

MATERIALS AND TECHNICAL DATA

TYPES C0009 - C0011 Materials of aluminium, steel or
FOR USE IN ABOVE GROUND TANKAGE product carrying parts stainless steel
WITH LATERAL OUTLET NEAR THE BOTTOM
single arm c0009 right hand design
Materials of seals Buna, Viton or PtFe
c0010 left hand design (other seals available)
c0011 centre design at Pos. V
the tank diameter must be bigger than the design pressure Pressureless
maximum uid level.
design temperature -10 c up to +50 c
TYPES C0012 - C0013 Alternative configurations on request.
FOR USE IN VERTICAL STORAGE TANKS
WITH LATERAL OUTLET NEAR THE BOTTOM
double arm c0012 left hand design * The exact size is depending on the required
triple arm c0013 left hand design
suction speed. The flow velocity should not
at uid levels bigger than the tank diameter double
exceed 1 m/s.
or triple arm oating suctions must be foreseen
depending on the relation between and height. * Design and length(s) of floating suction will
be determined by kind of tank and all relevant
TYPE C0015 dimensions.
FOR ARTICULATED DRAINAGE UNITS
WITH FLOATING CEILING/FLOATING ROOF * For optimizing the design of the floating
double arm c0015 left hand design suction for an individual situation please fill in
hanging our datasheet floating suctions.
the loads resulting from the weight of the
oating suction must be absorbed by the oating * If there are no special instructions the floating
ceiling/roof. suction will be designed that all parts can be
installed through a manhole size DN 600. The
TYPE C0093 floating suction will be delivered in parts.
FOR ARTICULATED DRAINAGE UNITS
WITH FLOATING CEILING/FLOATING ROOF
single arm c0093 right hand design with roll

For the roll a bearing has to be provided, which can

absorb the pressure force (of the roll).
