Bendigo Bank Bendigo Victoria



















The Brief At conceptual stage of this very important modern bank
headquarters for the Bendigo Bank in Bendigo Victoria,a special group of
"Green" designers were assembled, to incorporate the very latest in energy
savings and environmental features into the structure.An inbuilt
Central Vacuuming System was considered an absolute necessity
with it's positive effects on the building,and most of all on the building
occupants and users.

The Installation The Central Vacuum Cleaning System in this
building was built and installed by JBW Technologies Australia, and
comprises of a fully automatic central plant located in the Basement
Car Park and a common rising main with branches at each floor, leading
to smaller pipework installed throughout beneath the raised computer
flooring.Metal flush mounted floor inlets in the floor tiles complete the
installation. A constant pressure/constant volume bleed valve automatically
adjusts via a sensor to maintain system performance once a "set point"
is entered. A switchboard of JBW Technologies Australia manufacture
features all control functions.

Equipment Selected The system is a "wet disposal" type in which
all vacuumed material is mixed with clean fresh water before automatically
"dumping" to sewer via a strainer basket, when the plant shuts down. The
system also has the ability to vacuum water in emergencies, such as when
a sprinkler activates or basins overflow.There is no handling of dry dusty waste
by building operators,all that remains is a very small amount of damp residual
material, thus any OH&S issues are greatly reduced. Dual side channel vacuum
blowers of the gas ring type mounted in parallel in the plantroom provide
vacuum.The system is started automatically via DDC. The system is designed
for simultaneous usage by 7 to 8 operators.Good commercial quality lightweight
flexible hoses and floor tools are provided.

Patties Foods Bairnsdale Victoria

 















The Brief Patties Foods in Bairnsdale,Victoria have a very large
establishment engaged in the production of meat pies,fruit pies,sausage rolls,
and other foodstuffs on a large scale. Patties found that after some time, waste
from preparation and manufacture was causing some concern in the factory and
a Central Vacuum System was installed to deal with it.
JBW Technologies Australia have been involved with Patties Foods over a
long period with the maintenance of the system and it's components as well as
significant extensions to it as additions to the facility have progressed.

The Installation Up to 60kg of waste product is picked up daily by
the Central Vacuum System, and conveyed via stainless steel and metal tubing,
to an external cyclone outside the building.Pipe droppers in the factory terminate
with robust industrial "flap" type inlet valves, and good quality floor cleaning
tools with anti-static flexible hoses complete the installation. The system is
started via a remote push button station in the manufacturing area.The cyclone
waste is emptied simply by opening a manual butterfly valve above a "wheelie"
type plastic bin for later disposal.

Equipment selected The cyclone is a "dry" type with inbuilt filter
"socks", and fabricated from heavy rolled mild steel. A vacuum blower of the two
stage,gas ring type, provides enough capacity for 5 to 6 simultaneous operators.
The electrical switchboard of JBW Technologies Australia manufacture features
all control and drive equipment.

DSTO Port Melbourne Victoria

The Brief The Defence Department brief was to provide an inbuilt
Central Vacuum Cleaning System to a new laboratory and research building,
with vacuum pick up points mounted around the perimeter walls and in bench
tops. Waste material was to be conveyed via vacuum to an external cyclone.
JBW Technologies Australia successfully won this tender.

The Installation The installation consists of a heavy duty rolled mild
steel cyclone,all PVC pipework and fittings throughout the building,spring
loaded "flap" type inlet valves spaced within the reach of the 12 metre flexible
hoses,and good quality robust tools.The cyclone is located external to the
building with the vacuum blower nearby.The system energizes simply by
opening any of the inlet points, which causes a signal to be sent to the
switchboard and the vacuum blower.

Equipment selected The cyclone being of the "dry" type has internal
filter "socks" suspended in the main chamber,and a 40 litre dust catchment bin
simply clipped underneath with quick release catches.The vacuum blower is
of the side channel gas ring reciprocating type,3 phase,415 volt.
The switchboard is of JBW Technologies Australia design and construction.
The cyclone is of JBW Technologies Australia design and manufacture

"Happy Valley Enterprises" Robinvale,Victoria:

The Brief "Happy Valley Enterprises" owned by the Lamattina
family of vegetable growers at Robinvale, is a very large carrot growing
and processing establishment near Mildura in Victoria. The client contacted
JBW Technologies Australia to discuss the collection and removal of up
to 20,000 waste plastic strips per hour from the carrot production and
bagging line in a new facility.

The Installation The above ceiling exhaust ducting is of metal
galvanized material,with all pipework in food production areas in stainless
steel.An external rolled steel cyclone collects all waste material via a
flexible "skirt" clipped to a standard steel bin on castors. A high velocity
fan draws the plastic strip from the bagging area to the cyclone where it
falls naturally into the bin for later removal.

Equipment selected The cyclone, metal piping, high velocity fan,
and electrical switchboard are all of JBW Technologies Australia selection.
Supply and installation of this highly modern facility has now been in
operation since January 2007.
