Floating Wastewater Aeration Unit – 5 Horsepower. Motor: 5-hp, 3-phase, 60 hertz, industrial grade. Pontoons: ¼-inch thick polyethylene shell, filled with closed-cell foam, UV protected. Driveshaft/Air shaft: 1 ½-inch diameter, 316 stainless steel, ¼-inch wall thickness, 3.5 feet long as standard length. Turbine: High density nylon impregnated with 30 % fiberglass for wear and corrosion. Capacity: 36 liters/sec (76 cubic feet/minute) of air injection, transferring 4.7 pounds of oxygen per horsepower hour in processed water. (See report on oxygen transfer in Documentation.) Transfers up to 450 pounds of oxygen/unit/day. Size Assembled: LWH = 68 inches X 44 inches X 36 inches. Weight = about 300 pounds.

Legs are made of polyethylene. Each of the four legs inserts into a mounting cavity in the pontoons. Each leg is held in place by a Schedule 80, 2-inch threaded end cap. Legs are designed to prevent the rotating turbine from striking the bottom of the lagoon in low water conditions. The legs can accommodate air shaft lengths up to four feet. The legs have air holes at the top and the bottom to let air escape as they are lowered into the water.

The panel comes standard with Contact or Manual Motor Starter, and Hand-Off-Auto Switch. The Manual Motor Starter includes short circuit protection, overload protection, and through-the-door operator. The durable, high impact, poly carbonate, gasket enclosure is NEMA 4X rated for outdoor or indoor use. Will never rust nor splinter. Impervious to H2S gas. Never needs painting.

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) with its starter boxes. The VFD provides protection for over-current, phase loss, unbalanced voltage, motor stall, a short circuit, and a ground fault, to name a few. All of these features will be preset for you at the factory according to the specifications of our engineers. The VFD also makes it possible to slow-start the motor, meaning that the rpm of the motor begins slowly and builds up to operating speed. RPM can also be adjusted to rotate the turbine slower and faster to give versatility to many applications. See-through front allows viewing without opening the box.

VaraCorp offers the proper wire size for your application, pre-wired to the motor. VaraCorp offers the proper wire for your application, pre wired to the motor with strain-relief connectors. All wire is suitable for underwater use and is oil resistant.

Many of VaraCorp’s clients ask us to provide the guy wire to anchor the floating pontoons to the sides of the pit. VaraCorp recommends that ¼-inch stainless steel cable be used to secure the pontoons in the pit or lagoon. We also provide the clamps, thimbles, and other rigging needed with the guy wire. Our assembly instructions give details on how and where to secure the rigging from the pontoons to the shore. We also are available to answer any questions about the assembly or the anchoring of the pontoons.

VaraCorp offers a reliable and cost-effective surface aerator designed specifically for industrial settings such as breweries, wineries, and other facilities dealing with substantial wastewater management challenges. Their aerator is engineered to efficiently break down sludge and facilitate the movement of wastewater, thereby preventing backup issues that can damage properties or industrial products. This equipment can be seamlessly installed at locations where wastewater builds up, ensuring smooth aeration of excess materials. Varacorp`s aerators are designed for user convenience and are priced to suit industrial budgets, supporting a simplified and efficient wastewater elimination process. The company`s expertise in industrial products and wastewater treatment underscores their commitment to providing tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of each business.

Surface aerator systems are essential in water treatment processes due to their ability to enhance the water quality by increasing dissolved oxygen levels. These systems are integral in maintaining aquatic life and facilitating the breakdown of pollutants. Their design ensures energy efficiency, reducing operational costs significantly. Surface aerators also help in minimizing odors caused by anaerobic bacteria, thereby enhancing the environment around water bodies. With configurations available for both fixed and floating positions, surface aerators can be customized based on the size of the water body and the volume of wastewater being treated. The robust construction minimizes maintenance requirements, ensuring consistent performance and reduced downtime. At VaraCorp, we offer a range of surface aerators optimized for various applications and water treatment needs.
