Float Arms / Floats
The Machine contains 3 float arms and 3 floats. The float
arms allow vertical positioning of the machine and the
floats provide buoyancy.
Float Arms
- The float arms are constructed of stainless
steel components. They connect the floats to the
central machine structure. Each float arm has a sturdy
turnbuckle. The turnbuckles can easily be rotated
to adjust the vertical height of the distributor dish.
Lengthening the turnbuckle (rotating clockwise) will raise
the lip of the distributor dish, whereas shortening the
turnbuckle (rotating counter-clockwise) will cause the lip
of the distributor dish to lower.
The turnbuckle and float arm structure components are
constructed with robust stainless steel materials allowing
the Machine to operate in severe environments without
being damaged. The turnbuckle is self locking. Simply
rotate the handle to expand or collapse the turnbuckle for
dish depth adjustment.
It is important to check the distributor dish depth routinely.
The Machine naturally drops into the water over time
due to biomass buildup and trapped air escaping from
the hose. If the distributor dish lip is too high, the water
coming off the lip may become turbulent and the flow rate
of the machine may be reduced.
