Delivery Erection Maintenance After-sale service


 

From delivery to exploitation,
the technical features:

Leaving the factory, each model comprises the following standard items:

  • A wheel equipped with a drive head with15 blades of galvanized sheet metal. Their specially adapted curvature, studied in wind tunnel tests, ensures that the windmill operates even at very low wind speeds of less than 3 m/s. The rotating motion of the wheel is converted into vertical reciprocating motion on the windmill head by means of a crank and connecting rod system. This motion is transmitted to the pump piston by the linkage bolted onto the bearing neck at the base of the connecting rod. 
  • A tower made up of steel angles treated with a coat of rustproof paint or by hot galvanizing to ensure very long-term protection.
  • A suction and discharge piston pump (range of pump starting from a 40 mm diameter) comprising a cylinder, a piston, two flanges and rods. 

Note : The materials used (as stainless steel, brass and bronze) must be selected according to the water quality.

  • A rudder to keep the wheel facing into the wind and a feathering blade. This assembly is articulated (patented system) so as to ensure that the windmill is set to safety mode in case of gusts with a wind speed of more than 9 m/s or storms. In these circumstances, the windmill's rotational speed should not exceed 80 rpm. 
  • Pumping accessories: a strainer, a bleed valve to be fitted on the piping in order to avoid problems with freezing. Plus the equipment specific to each installation: straight junctions, elbow, outlet tee junction, etc.

Maintenance :

It is essential to comply with maintenance recommendations in order to ensure the correct operation and long service life of these machines. Maintenance is carried out with the windmill stopped and consists of just the two following operations:

  • greasing of bearings (once or twice a year).
  • bleeding of piping in case of freezing conditions. .

The patented ground stop device has been designed to facilitate maintenance work . This device, supplied as optional equipment, is strongly recommended. Futher more, it can be used as an easy means of preventing problems due to freezing and drying-out of the well.

Note : a stuffing box can be installed in the well to allow pumping to be continued during the winter without any problems with freezing (look at the information scheme)
