TECHNICAL

PROPOSAL:

1.- DESCRIPTION:
The following technical proposal has been designed according the strictest normative in
swimming pools design.
Taking as reference a standard Olympic pool with the dimensions detailed below, the
Technical Department of EMAUX has elaborated the following technical proposal by
calculating and designing the best products adapted to the standard requirements in
swimming pools.
You also will find a recommended Lay-Out of the installation at the end of the proposal, so it
will help to clarify the position of all the products designed, as well as some hydraulic topics.

2.- DESIGN OF THE PRODUCTS:
EMAUX has designed the products proposed according to the following initial values:
• Pool size: 50 x 25 x 2
• Pool volume: 2500 m3
• Type of pool: Public and training purpose.
• Illumination system: LED lights cool white.
• Water Temperature: 28 degrees
• Water Treatment: Ultraviolet System and chemical dosing pumps.

2.1.- PUMPING SYSTEM:
For a proper water filtration, EMAUX recommends that the time required for treating the
entire water volume of the pool, also called turn over, must be 4 hours for Semi-Olympic
pools.
Consequently, the flow rate calculated is:
2500 m3 / 4 hours = 625 m3/h

2.2.- PUMP DESIGNED:
High-volume self-priming pump available in 2 and 4 poles
versions ideal for larger filtration
systems. Features large
suction-side pre-filter which together with excellent
hydraulic performance ensures extremely high filtration
capacity.
Filter with polycarbonate cover for easy viewing of
pre-filter basket contents.
Features standard connection
flanges which together with a broad base make the system
especially robust.
Counter-flanges not supplied as standard (available on request).
Turbine available in 2
versions, Noryl or marine bronze, as per request.
Works with sea water when fitted with
AISI-316 mechanical seal (available on re-quest).

5+1 ES1250B 136 12 12.5 4” / 110 mm
50Hz

In order to regulate the flow rate, or for servicing and maintenance, it is always
recommended to install butterfly valves just before and after the pumps.
A check valve will be also required, to avoid water hammer and protect the pumps.
Valves and check valve are not included in the offer.

According to the standards, the water velocity in the suction side of the pump is 1,2 m/sec.
On the other hand, the filtration velocity in the discharge side is 2 m/sec.
Knowing that:
Flow rate (m3/h) = Area (m2) x velocity (m/h)
Where
Pump flow rate = 125 m3/h
Area = πr '
velocity in suction side = 1.2 m/sec x 3600 sec/h
velocity in discharge side = 2 m/sec x 3600 sec/h

SUCTION SIDE DISCHARGE SIDE
136 = Area x 4320 136 = Area x 7200
Area = 136 / 4320 Area = 136 / 7200
πr = 136 / 4320
2 πr2 = 136 / 7200
r2 = (136 / 4320) / π r2 = (136 / 7200) / π
r = √((136 / 4320) / π) r = √((136 / 7200) / π)


Ø = 2000 x √((136 / 4320) / π) Ø = 2000 x √((136 / 7200) / π)
Ø = 200 mm Ø = 160 mm



2.3.- FILTRATION SYSTEM:
One of the most important parameters when designing the filtration system is the filtration
velocity. It is the speed of the water passing though the filter.
The lower filtration velocity, the better water quality.
The recommended filtration velocities are represented below:

Public pools Public Semi-public Private

for children pools pools pools

Filtration velocity
20 30 40 50
(m3/h/m2)


According to the number of pumps calculated, we advise to install, at least, same number of
filters, so the general operation system will be much easier and the filtration system will
operate continuously, even when backwashing or servicing one filter or pump.






2.4.- FILTER DESIGNED:
Taking into consideration the flow rate obtained by the pumps (136
m3/h), and the filtration velocity desired (30 m3/h/m2), the
recommended model of filter is: NL Series Commercial Filter with
laterals system and diameter 2300 mm.

Emaux NL-Series Commercial Sand Filters satisfy the requirements
of the most demanding installations including pools installed with
in-floor cleaning systems, spas, fountains, public swimming pools,
aquariums and industrial water treatment.

2.2.- POOL FITTINGS:
For a good water quality, it is necessary the correct design of the
water circulation equipment, such as skimmers or overflow
channel, main drain, return inlets, etc.

For Semi-Olympic pools, EMAUX recommends to build the
fittings based on the down/up recirculation circuit. This means
to install the inlet nozzles in the bottom of the pool, and overflow
channel instead of skimmer. With this way, the chemicals added in the process, as well as the
heat water (if any), will be distributed homogeneously all around the water of the pool.

The quantity of the return inlets and main drains will be determined according to the total
flow rate of the installation and the flow allowed for each fitting.
On the other hand, we recommend to install the overflow channel all around the perimeter
of the pool.
Regarding the dimensions of the ballast tanks, it has to have a minimum capacity to collect
the water of aprox. 10% of the pool water surface.
Please contact Emaux for more information about the design of the ballast tank.

2.3.- DISINFECTION SYSTEM. ULTRAVIOLET SYSTEM:
According to the purpose of the pool (training), we recommend
the disinfection system based on Ultraviolet System and chemical
dosing pumps in order to obtain the minimum levels of chlorine
required.
Ultraviolet technology is a non-chemical approach to
disinfection. In this method of disinfection, nothing is added
which makes this process simple, inexpensive and requires very
low maintenance. UV-C light is becoming increasingly favored by the pool industry as its
ability to break down and remove chloramines, which will cause eye, skin and nose
irritation, and breathing difficulties.
UV-C light at a particular wavelength 253.7nm is a very powerful germicide. It deactivates
the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens and thus destroys their ability to multiply
and cause disease.

Ultraviolet advantages:
§ Protects your pool against pathogenic organism and algae.
§ Environmental friendly.
§ No risk of allergies.
§ Non-irritation to skin.
§ Corrosion and Odor-free.
§ Reduces chlorine consumption up to 85%.
§ UV-C lamp life for 4500 hours.
§ The device indicates when the lamp must be replaced. (Only T models).
§ Housing with mirror polished Stainless Steel AISI-316L that increases the UV-C
radiation reflection, thereby increasing the efficiency by up to 35%.
§ Easy installation and maintenance.

The model of Ultraviolet available for Semi-Olympic pools has the following features:

request.
60 mJ/cm2 of performance.



2.4.- DISINFECTION SYSTEM: DOSING PUMPS:
On the other hand, a minimum level of chlorine will be always required in order follow the
standard normative of disinfection.
Two dosing pumps will be installed: One will inject chlorine and the other will regulate the
pH of the water.

CHLORINE DOSING PUMP:
By using Ultraviolet system, the levels of chlorine in the water are reduced to the minimum
required: 0.5 ppm

Taking into consideration the following values:
§ Concentration of chlorine solution prepared: 25 gr./L.
§ System operation time: 12 hours/day.

We can calculate:
ü Chlorine required per day: 1838 gr/day
ü Volume required per day: 75.53 L
ü Volumetric flow rate: 6.13 L/h
ü Chlorine savings by using Ultraviolet System: 75%
The dosing system required for the chlorine injection is as follows:

Model Description Units (Nos.)
CTRL7-ORP Proportional dosing pump 1
ORP Probe ORP Sensor including holder 1
ORP buffer solution 1 bottle of buffer solution (465 mV) 1
Dosing pipe fittings Flexible pipes, foot valve and injection valve. 1
Fixed accessories Vertical base and wall-mounted accessories 1

pH DOSING PUMP:
In this case, considering the following values:
§ Rise in pH of 0.3
§ Acid solution in the pH tank: 50 mL HCl/L.
we can estimate:
ü Acid solution consumption: 525 L per day.
ü Volumetric flow rate: 43.75 L/hr.
Therefore, the dosing pump system required is:

Model Description Units (Nos.)
CTRL20-PH Proportional dosing pump 2
pH Probe pH Sensor including holder 1
2 bottles of buffer solution (pH 4 and pH 7) + 1
pH buffer solutions 1
bottle for buffering.
Dosing pipe fittings Flexible pipes, foot valve and injection valve. 2
Fixed accessories Vertical base and wall-mounted accessories 2


2.4.- ILLUMINATION SYSTEM:
According to the FINA rules, light intensity over starting platforms
and turning ends shall not be less than 600 lux.
EMAUX recommends to install a light in every 20-25 m2, the
approximate exposure area of each unit.
The E-Lumen Compact LED lights are designed for easy
installation and with high illuminating power to enhance your
night pool atmosphere. LED technology has been proved to be the
most eco-friendly light source with high efficiency, life span and
quality. With the combinations of RGB individual LEDs, colour arrays with different modes
are achieved under your full control.

For Semi-Olympic pools, we recommend to install the following LED lights, Control box,
Transformers and junction boxes:

2.7.- HEATING SYSTEM:
The plate type heat exchanger is a new high efficient heat exchanger that
is built up with a series of together stacked metal plates with
certain corrugated switches. Thin rectangular channels are formed among
the various plates and heat is exchanged trough the plates.





For an outdoor swimming pool, taking as reference the following values:

Desired water temperature 28 degrees
Initial water temperature 25 degrees
Air temperature 20 degrees
Start-up heating time 24 hr.
