Under this item,
the contractor shall supply and install to
manufacturer's recommendations a PEACEMAKER™ Odor
Control Manhole Insert as shown on contract drawings
and specified hereunder.
The PEACEMAKER™
insert and components shall be manufactured from
corrosion proof material suitable for atmospheres
containing hydrogen sulphide and dilute sulphuric
acid as well as other gases associated with
wastewater collection systems and be filled with dry
media capable of effective control of odors
associated with such gases.
The body shall be
made from Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene plastic
that meets the Federal Standards of LP 1183 and can
pass the following ASTM test requirements: D 256, D
638, D 790, D 792, D 785, D 648.
The thickness shall not be less than 3/32" nor
greater than 6/32". The body shall be manufactured
to the dimensions as shown on the contract drawings
to allow easy installation in the manhole frame.
The gasket shall be
made of closed-cell Neoprene. The gasket shall have
a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side and be
placed under the insert rim by the manufacturer. The
adhesive shall be compatible with the body material
so as to form a long-lasting bond in either wet or
dry conditions of use.
The insert shall have two lift straps
attached to its body. Lift straps shall be made of
1” width polyester nylon and shall be seared on all
cut ends to prevent unraveling or deterioration.
Lift straps shall be attached to insert body by
means of a 3/16" stainless steel rivet.
The media shall remove H2S and malodorous
compounds from the air stream via H2S Converting/Oxidizing/Polishing media.
The H2S Converting/Oxidizing/Polishing media capacities shall not be diminished by ambient
humidity.
The insert shall be manufactured to fit
the manhole frame rim from which it hangs. Specific
field measurements shall be required prior to
production of the insert. Instructions will be made
available to the purchaser or engineer for proper
measurements.
The manhole frame rim shall be cleaned of
all dirt or debris before placing the insert upon
the rim.
The insert shall be
fully seated around the manhole frame rim.
Measure atmospheric H2S in ppm
after removing cover but prior to installing insert.
Measure again after installing insert and calculate
removal percentage.
No field training
required.
