SPRINKLER SYSTEM FOR STOCKPILES (DSS-1) TECHNICAL PROPOSAL INTRODUCTION It is proposed to provide the Sprinkler System to prevent lift

off of dust from Stockpiles. In this System, plain water is sprayed over the material by installing a number of Sprinklers around the Stockpiles in a ring manner to cover the entire projected area of the Stockpile. The Sprinkler break-up the water into small droplets simulating natural rainfall. The water sprayed on the Stockpile will wet the material and prevent lift off of dust due to wind etc.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION The design of the Dust suppression is mainly depend upon the stockpile dimension. Here three Nos. of stockpile which are of different dimension. These are as follows:-

Dimension of Stockpile 1 & 3 Dimension of Stockpile 2 Total Number of Stockpiles Operating Conditions

- 415 M X 52 M (L X W) - 415 M X 78 M (L X W) 03Nos. Two sprinkler shall operate at a time in Each of the stockpiles 1 & 3, while sprinkler of stockpile 2 are closed. Alternatively 2 Nos sprinkler of Stockpile No 2 will operate and sprinkler of stockpile 1 & 3 are closed.

Pump House Location

Near Transfer Tower TT-10.

EQUIPMENT DETAILS: 2.0 WATER PUMPING STATION Water Storage Tank Duplex Stariner Water Pumps

2.1

Water Storage Tank (BY client ) In order to store water for the Sprinkler System for the Stockpile Area and Aquadyne without chemical Dust Suppression System for various transfer Point a Water Storage Tank of capacity of 220 Cu.M(one hour of maximum pumping capacity) in reinforcement cement concrete shall be constructed by the client. The water tank shall be complete with accessories such as inlet pipe, valve, float valve, over flow pipe, drawing valve, etc . our organization shall provide a high and low level switch with indication for the fitment in the Tank.

The Tank Shall be common for Both the System. 2.2 Duplex Strainer A Duplex Strainer shall be provided at the inlet of water pump. The Duplex Strainer shall consist of Two Strainer in parallel with diverter valves,one strainer to be used at a time.The strainer shall have a MS body with ss strainer A differential pressure switch is installed to provide a Audio-visual signal when the pressure drop across the filter Exceeds the pre-set value to allow the operator to divert the flow to the second strainer. 2.3 Water Pumps 2 Nos. Water Pumps {one operating + one standby} rated as 180 Cu.M/hr at 110 mtrs. head fitted with 180 HP - 4 Pole Motor shall be provided to supply water to the Sprinklers system in stockpiles. The Pump capacity has been selected on the consideration that a Maximum 02 opposite Sprinklers in each of the stockpile 1 & 3 will be operating at a time. While the sprinkler system of stockpile No-2 will remain closed. Alternatively two opposite sprinkler in Stockpile 2 will operate while the sprinkler of stockpile 1 & 3 will remain closed. The operation of these Water Pumps shall be interlocked with the Low Level Switch in the Water Storage Tank to ensure that the Pumps do not operate when the water level of the tank is below the minimum level. A re-circulation / by-pass line shall be provided to cater for any variation in the requirement of water in the Sprinklers System and to avoid built-up of pressure in the line. 3.0 3.1 SPRAY SYSTEM Sprinklers (For stockpile 1 & 3) The Sprinklers are single / twin Jet Hydrodynamic type with Oscillating Arm, covering a segment of the circle. The Sprinkler shall have a discharge capacity of 26~27 Cu.M./Hr. at 5.0 Bar pressure with a throw of 37 Mtrs .Sprinkler shall be installed on both sides of the stock pile at a distance of approximately 40 M i.e. 11 sprinklers on each sides of stock pile total 44sprinklers for two stockpile 1 & 3. 3.2 Sprinklers (For stockpile 2) The Sprinklers are single / twin Jet Hydrodynamic type with Oscillating Arm, covering a segment of the circle. The Sprinkler shall have a discharge capacity of 77~80 Cu.M./Hr. at 5.0 Bar pressure with a throw of 56 Mtrs .Sprinkler shall be installed on both sides of the stock pile at a distance of approximately 40 M i.e. 11 sprinklers on each sides of stock pile total 22sprinklers for stockpile 2. 3.2 Flow Activation Stations ( Solenoid Box ) Each Sprinkler is provided with a Flow Activation Station(FAS) for ON / OFF control of the Sprinkling Operation. The Flow Activation Station consists of a

Globe Valve and a Solenoid Valve housed in an enclosure. The height of the sprinkler shall be 2.5 M~ 3.0 M above the ground. The sprinkler post shall be supported on both sides. 4.0 PIPELINE SYSTEM The Water Pipeline System shall consist of MS / GI Medium Grade pipes with fittings & valves from the water pumps in the pump house to the various sprinklers. Pipe of 50 NB and below shall be in GI with threaded joints and pipes of 50 NB and above shall be in MS. All valves up to 50 NB shall be with Gun body with threaded joints, whereas for pipes 65 NB and above , the valve shall be Cast Iron Body with Flanged. All the pipe line from the pump house to the stockpile area shall be below ground and will be provided with wrapping coating as per IS 10221. 5.0 TAKE-OFF POINTS We shall provide take-off points at 50 Meters centre for the filling of make-up water tanks of dust suppression system on each stacker / re-claimer. The takeoff points shall be providing on the pipe along the length of the stockpile No. 2 only. The Take-off point shall consist of 25mm quick coupling(female part) and a ball valves. The Total number of Take-off points shall be 16 Nos. i.e. 8 on each line.

Water Requirement The water requirement for sprinkler system depend upon a large number of factors such as type and size of material, ambient condition such as temperature, humidity and wind condition which can widely vary during day and season to season. However for the purpose of estimate it is presumed that the total projected area of the stockpile shall be sprinkled with water equivalent to 5~8 mm of rainfall three times a days, based on above assumption the total water requirement shall be each sprinkler cycle or 1800CuM/day
