The calibration of the valves is necessary from time to time. This ensures that air distribution is adequate both in the different compartments of the plant and in the sludge recirculation ducts.
Maintaining air balance within the plant is a key point to avoid problems such as the generation of bad odors or poor quality treated water.
The first step to performing the calibration is to identify the valves on the air distributor. The numbering order of the valves always starts from the air inlet end (IN) to the distributor.
There are five categories of valves, described as follows:
