Project engineer: John P O’ Brien
After my design was approved, I sent away the design for
professional drafting
Using the design provided by the engineering department, we constructed
4 new bin cover lids
Next step was to fit the lid frames with the new rams to ensure perfect fit
Once satisfied with lid fitting, we completed the sheet work on each lid
 The next stage of our project involved the
purchase and installation of the hydraulic
pump to operate the opening/closing of the bin
covers.
 The Pump was supplied by Dowden's along
with the installation of the stainless steel
pipework.
 The sprinkler system is used for dust
suppression as an environmental measure.
 The old system operated on a timer activating
hourly for four minutes.
 It operated by spraying through holes on an
old bar running along the bins.
 The new system would incorporate rotating
sprinklers in each corner and would continue
to use the old timer as before.
 This new system proved very successful for
dust suppression.
