KTM Technical Handbook 7.0 Bomba Saturación Nikuni

Introduction
- Features of KTM NIKUNI has supplied a unique compact micro-bubble generator, called KTM,
contributing to remove contaminant particles with a small amount of chemical
aid in the water purifying plant.

High contaminant removal efficiency

--- supplying a highly dense micro-bubble formation
Continuously steady dissolved air flotation
---fine adjustment not necessary during operation
Applicable for additional installation
--- narrow space installation
Minimum power consumption
--- power required for KTM only
Easy maintenance and minimum operation cost
--- compact and simple in structure
Quiet in operation
--- no compressor, controls, dissolve tank are required
Any gas of air, oxygen, ozone, etc. available for your purpose
- Application and Industries served of DAF -
Suction - Mixing - Tranfering by KTM

KTM has a highly precise and sophisticated pumping mechanism that can
generate plenty of micro-bubbles by three hydro-dynamic principles:Negative
pressure sucking both air and water simultaneously from each port; air effectively
mixed into water; finally properly producing pressurized air-enriched discharge
The pressurized air-enriched water is transferred into the bottom of the dissolved
air flotation tank. Then it makes a bubble sparkling formation spreading and
growing up to the water surface and finally form a sludge mat.
It will be skimmed off.

KTM models, available for the selection responding to various

intension on the plant design stage, are roughly classified
into three types; close-coupled type, bare pump and coupling type.
Material of the wetted part can be selected in Cast iron or SS304
for each model. In addition, an assembly of check valve and air
inject nozzle assembly is packed in KTM package of each model.
1. Close-coupled Type / Monoblock Type
A series of the most compact and complete set of the microbubble generator has been put in our arrangement, but without
pump base. This model arrangement is restricted within a
narrow range of KTM15 to KTM40.

2. Bare Pump
Individual KTM core, and basically original of Coupling Type.
Pump base or channel base is basically not attached.
3. Coupling Type
The coupling attached KTM models are most popularly in t
market. Nikuni will supply bare pump, pump base (base plate)
and coupling set with coupling guard only.
Depending on your plant site environmental situation,
the driven motor protection system can be applied.
Closed-Couple type

Coupling Type
(Normally motor will not be supplied by NIKUNI)
4. Nozzle Assembly
A nozzle and check valve assembled attached to every model,
specified in correspondent to each model.
Techinical Comments on KTM and Relative Factors
Air Injection Control
Note (Important) :
Suction & Discharge Valves, Compound & Pressure Gauges must be installed for initially fine adjustment
1. Inching test
- Rotation smoothness & rotation direction is correct.
2. Piping
- Those necessary valves, gauges have been installed, non-cavitation piping and suction head position.
3 Turn power OFF :
- Prime water into KTM
- Knob of the air parameter is shutted or close the air inject valve.
- Suction & discharge valves are completely OPEN
4. Turn power ON :
- Setting the discharge pressure into the range from
0.3MPa to 0.4Mpa (3 bar to 4 bar)
- Setting the suction pressure into minus range from
0.02MPa to 0.03MPa. (approx. 0.2 bar to 0.3 Bar)
- Open the knob of Airflow meter or valve as to drawn-in
air automatically. (refer to page 9 for air volume adjustment)

KTM Initial Running Procedure (Reference)

KTM Series pump user manual must be fully read and understood before operating the pump.
Failure to do so may result in death, serious injury, or property damages. This page is intended for
a basic understanding of KTM startup operation and not a substitute for the user manual.
AIR FLOW METER
PRE-OPERATION CHECK (POWER IS OFF)

1) Prime KTM with effluent or water
2) Fully open Suction valve and Discharge valve
*Do not run KTM with these valves closed
AIR IN-TAKE NOZZLE
( CHECK ATTACHED)
STARTING KTM
1) Discharge side adjustments:
Slowly tighten the Discharge valve until the discharge pressure falls within the desired range
of 0.3MPa to 0.4MPa (approximately 3bar to 4bar) with reference to the Pressure gauge.

SUCTION CONTORL VALVE
In the case where the Discharge valve (or KTM) is located far from the flotation tank, bubbles
will then grow larger. In order to maintain micro bubble size, an additional control valve
should be installed on the flotation tank side to control the discharge pressure.

2) Suction side adjustments:

Check to see if the Compound gauge indicates a negative suction pressure between the range
of -0.02MPa to -0.03MPa (approximately -0.2bar to -0.3bar). If the pressure is higher than
this range, slightly tighten the Suction valve to bring the pressure into the range stated above.
3) Air injection adjustments:
Open the knob of Air-Parameter (Air flow meter) and adjust to an air flow rate that is 8% of
the water flow rate.
Excess Air Release
Note : Strength and reinforcement structure of

"Excess Air Device / Separation Tank" should
be considered against KTM discharge pressure.
(B)
In case of mini bubbles occur and effect to flotation process,

please consider installing Excess Air Device /
Separation Tank as shown on the right.
(Install a contorl valve as to

adjust the release of air amount)
