A new requirement from coir bricks production Industry. They using coir waste as raw material for coir bricks production. Which is weightless dust and fire prone material. They want wet this Raw Material dumping area daily to avoid air pollution and material waste due to take away in wind and protecting from fire. They manually spraying over the stockyards with hose. Which done by 3 labours for about 3 hours with 5 HP Pump for one acre. Since it not give fully benefit as they need.
They come to us for the solution. We visited the stock area and analyse area shape, finally we suggest regular sprinkler with 30 Feet intervals in Portable type. At a time with 5 HP Pump 9 Sprinklers are connected to main line where needed and Sprinkle water for 10 mins. Which is sufficient wetting (Uniform) for 30 cents. The benefits and tech are given below. Now the factory is safely running from dust and fire.
