The
Magnum Spill BusterTM is an advanced automated free phase
petroleum contamination pumping system. It is specifically designed to remove
floating petroleum product (LNAPL) from the water table via a 2" or larger
diameter well. The unique auto-seeking device allows the pump intake to
automatically follow the elevation of the oil/water interface as it fluctuates.
This is very useful in areas where the water table elevation fluctuates often.
The Magnum Spill Buster will not pump water. The system can also be configured
to recover heavier-than-water (DNAPL) contaminants.
Water depression operation can be added with the addition of a Water Depression Control Module and a Grundfos Redi-Flo 3 environmental water pump.
The
Magnum Spill Buster Control Box is a processor based control system that
coordinates and displays system operations. The control box features a connector
"pouch" which provides easy access to control cable hookups, control
parameter settings, and 12/24 VDC or 120/240 VAC 50/60 Hz input power hookups.
The control box also provides an RS-485 communications port for connection to up to 31 other units and a personal computer (PC) up to 3,000 ft. away.
The Magnum
Spill Buster Probe is 1.93 inches in diameter and features our Alpha-ArrayTM
Interface sensor to detect the water/ product interface. This sensor is a
multiple field array, all solid state, monolithic, noncontact, fluid-interface
sensor that is a spin-off of spacecraft fuel gauging developed for NASA. The use
of this interface sensor in the environmental industry is unique. Since it is a
noncontact sensor, it is highly immune to fouling, which is a problem with
virtually all other types of sensing methods (including conductive, float,
optical and even radio frequency methods).
The product pump is a powerful 12vdc unit originally developed for the diesel truck market and much modified to withstand its use with the dirty and degraded products found in recovery wells.
The
Auto Seeker is a small, motorized reel assembly located at the top of the
wellhead. It automatically raises and lowers the probe to follow the product
interface and is only limited by the length of the cable. This makes the system
operation highly efficient even with large changes in the level of the ground
water. The cable fully reels onto the Auto Seeker, allowing the system to freely
operate in a vault as small as 24" x 24" x 22" deep.
 Paying to dispose of water?The Spill BusterTM does not pick up water -- as a result of its superior sensing technology. You won't pay hazardous waste fees to dispose of water. Units made by other manufacturers suck up water in addition to free product. Despite their lower initial cost, inferior units can cost you more in the long run. |
