Bathurst WTW
AIS Electrical Engineers were commissioned by Jua Water Solutions to oversee the design and construction phases of their project aimed at upgrading the Bathurst Train 2 Water Treatment Works. Our responsibility encompassed the complete design of the electrical infrastructure throughout the plant.
Client
Jua Water Solutions
Project Type
Design of the entire electrical infrastructure on the Bathurst WTW plant
Chassis Preparation
Chassis preparation is a crucial step in the installation of an electronic or electrical system, and our technician started this process by laying out the product and other major equipment. This allowed them to visualize how the components will fit together in the chassis and ensure that there is enough space for everything. Trunking, a type of conduit used to protect and organize wires and cables, was also a focus during the preparation process. By properly preparing the chassis, our technician set the foundation for an efficient and functional system.
Container Preparation
The client began preparing the container by working on the cutouts, frame, and piping. Cutouts are openings in the container for equipment installation, such as air conditioning units or electrical panels. The frame provides structural support for the equipment, and the piping infrastructure enables fluid or gas transfer between different parts of the system. Container preparation is critical for creating an efficient containerized system.
Chassis Layout
The process of populating a panel is a critical step in the assembly of any electrical or electronic system. It involves carefully installing all of the necessary components into the panel, including switches, relays, circuit breakers, and other electrical devices. This process must be done with great care and attention to detail to ensure that the final product functions correctly and safely.
Before the population of the panel can begin, the chassis must be properly prepared to accommodate the various components. This often involves drilling holes, cutting openings, and mounting brackets to hold the devices securely in place. Once the chassis preparation is complete, the panel can be populated.
During the population process, our technician ensures that each component is installed in the correct location and wired correctly according to the wiring schematics provided. This is a complex and time-consuming process that requires a high degree of technical expertise and precision. However, it is a critical step in creating a safe and reliable electrical system that can be operated with confidence.
Inter-Wiring
After carefully following the wiring schematics provided by AIS Electrical Engineers (Pty) Ltd, our skilled technician expertly connected all of the components in the panel. We used high-quality LSIS switchgear, Mitsubishi Frecon variable speed drives, Weidmuller terminals, and surge arresters to construct the panel, which is designed to draw just over 100A and has a fault level lower than 6kA.
Additionally, we programmed the system to be easily operated from the field, allowing for precise control over the five pump-set units. Our wiring and programming are fully compliant with the international standard IEC/EN 61082-1: 2007, ensuring optimal performance and safety.o draw just over a 100A with a fault level lower than 6kA. The system has been programmed to operate manually from the field to control 5 pump-set units.
