RAKE HEAD - ELECTRICAL - BOOM - OPERATION - PAINT - MANUFACTURING - DELIVERY & INSTALL


Rake Head

 

Rake Head Opposing ThumbRake Head Opposing Thumb with TrashThe standard rake head is typically 60". Ashland Hydro Trash Rakes will work with the owner to customize the rake head for their intake configuration. The rake is furnished with ¾-inch penetrating teeth (or HDPE sweep if primary trash is weeds) and a thumb attachment with a 25" opening. However, the rake head is built to fit the bar profile present at the facility and to the customer's specification. The rake head is equipped with an opposing thumb that opens to a 25" opening.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Electrical

 

ElectricalThe preferred electrical voltage is 460/230V, three phase service, and usually is the least expensive to install. When lower voltages are used, they require higher amperage and then the festoon system wire gets largers and becomes much more expensive. All electrical boxes are NEMA 4.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Boom

 

Main and Dipper BoomThe machine construction consists of main and dipper booms of ASTM 8500 Grade B structural steel, with cab of steel and sheet metal. Reinforcing plate is of ASTM 8572 Grade 50. The hydraulic assembly is powered by a 30 HP TEFC motor and a pressure compensated tandem gear pump. As an option, the main boom can be outfitted with a 4,000 pound capacity electric winch for use on facility maintenance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Operation

 

Operator Pedals

Hydro Trash Rack OperatorThe standard 4-wheel drive is powered by the hydraulic system. The machine comes furnished with an 80 gallon hydraulic fluid reservoir with discharge and inlet filters, a 1500 W tank heater, low oil level alarm and high oil temperature alarm. The system uses seamless steel hydraulic lines with braided hose connections at the ends only. A heated operator cabin has windows on all sides, front windshield wiper and floor window. Operation is by two joysticks to operate the rake and foot pedals to operate the traverse function. One E stop is located in the operator's cabin and in other locations per customer request. If the operator is not seated the machine will cease to operate via an operator presence switch, or letting go of the joysticks stops all motion and the controls move quickly back to the center (neutral) position. At this time, Ashland Hydro Trash Rakes does not offer an automated system for several reasons. An owner cannot predict the type, quantity and speed of debris coming down the river. We manually operate our machine, with maximum efficiency, to pluck or guide debris to a sluice gate, thus preserving the operational flexibility.


 

 

 

 

 


Paint

 

Ashland Hydro Trash Rack PaintThe machine is completely shot blasted (while disassembled), then treated with a 2 mil primer coat and a 2-3 mil top polyester semi-gloss powder-coat (www.cardinalpaint.com), with customer color selection.

Delivery and Install
