 Specifications for MicroFAST 3.00 Wastewater Treatment System
1. GENERAL
The contractor shall furnish and install (1) MicroFAST® 3.00 treatment system as manufactured by Bio-Microbics, Inc. The treatment system shall be complete with all needed equipment as shown
on the drawings and specified herein.
The principal items of equipment shall include FAST® system insert, leg extensions, or lid, blower assembly, blower controls and alarms. All other items will be provided by others.
The MicroFAST 3.00 unit shall be situated within a 2250 gallon [8500 L] minimum compartment as shown on the drawings. Suggested maximum settling zone is (1X) the daily flow. Tank must provide
adequate pump out access and conform to local, state, and all other applicable codes. The contractor shall provide coordination between the FAST system and tank supplier with regard to
fabrication of the tank, installation of the FAST unit and delivery to the job site.
2. OPERATING CONDITIONS
The MicroFAST 3.00 treatment system shall be capable of treating the wastewater produced by typical family activities (bath, laundry, kitchen, etc.) ranging from (10) ten to
(42) forty-two people and not to exceed 3000 US Gallons per day (11400 LPD) provided the waste contains nothing that will interfere with biological treatment. The FAST system is a biological
treatment system not meant for non-biodegradable or industrial wastewater.
3. MEDIA
The FAST media shall be manufactured of rigid PVC, polyethylene, or polypropylene and it shall be supported by the polyethylene insert. The media shall be fixed in position and contain no
moving or wearing parts and shall not corrode. The media shall be designed and installed to ensure that sloughed solids descend through the media to the bottom of the septic tank.
4. BLOWER
The MicroFAST 3.00 unit shall come equipped with a regenerative type blower capable of delivering 44-85 CFM [68-90 m3/hr] The blower assembly shall include an inlet filter with metal filter
element. Blower piping to the tank shall use non-corrosive material (PVC, Galvanized, or Stainless Steel). Do not run galvanized pipe inside the treatment tank. Refer to Installation Manual for
further details.
5. REMOTE MOUNTED BLOWER
The blower must not set in standing water and its elevation must be higher than the normal flood level. A two-piece, rectangular housing shall be provided. The discharge air line from the blower
to the MicroFAST System, shall be provided and installed by the contractor.
6. ELECTRICAL
The electrical source should be within 150 feet [45 meters] of the blower, consult local codes for longer wiring distances. All wiring must conform to all applicable codes(IEC, NEC, etc.). Wiring
distances must prevent significant voltage loss. Input power on 60Hz electrical systems 220VAC, 1Ø, 10.6 FLA, 220/460VAC, 3Ø, 4.9/2.5 FLA on 50 Hz electrical systems 220VAC, 1Ø, 12 FLA,
230/380VAC, 3Ø, 6.1/3.5 FLA. Other voltages and phase are also available. Actual power consumption varies with site conditions. All conduit and wiring shall be supplied by contractor.
7. CONTROLS
The control panel provides power to the blower with an alarm system consisting of a visual and audible alarm capable of signaling blower circuit failure and high water conditions. The control
panel is equipped with SFR® (Sequencing Fixed Reactor) timed control feature. A manual silence button is included.
8. INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
All work must be done in accordance with local codes and regulations. Installation of the MicroFAST 3.00 shall be done in accordance with the written instructions provided by the manufacturer.
Manuals shall be furnished, which will include a description of system installation, operation, and maintenance procedures.
9. FLOW AND DOSING
FAST systems have been successfully designed, tested and certified receiving gravity, demand-based influent flow. When influent flow is controlled by pump or other means to help with highly
variable flow conditions, then multiple dosing events should be used to maximize performance. The flow rate shall not exceed 15 gpm (57 Lpm) with a maximum hourly flow not to exceed 10% of
the design daily flow (450 gph (1700LPH)).
10.WARRANTY
