The piping system for compressed air takes compressed air from the air compressor rooms to all tools and machines. The size, type, and configuration of the piping system determine the pressure drop along the route, amount of water reaching the destination, and leakage of air. A well-sized compressor on badly designed pipework still delivers poor air. Air compressor pipe is a rising search in the UAE as plants expand and add lines. The guide will describe how to size compressed air piping, select appropriate pipe materials, design ring mains, prevent water entering the system and the role that GENAVCO plays in designing Denair compressed air systems. Importance of Pipework Equally to the Compressor Pressure drop: every bend, valve, and undersized pipework will cause a loss of pressure. The standard solution to this problem is to increase the compressor pressure, consuming energy during all hours of operation. Water: compressed air contains water. Pipework which retains water delivers it to machinery and products. Leaks: leaks from joints and fittings accumulate over time, wasting air regardless of production activity. Our guide to industrial air compressor running costs shows how leaks add up. Future growth: a network sized only for today's demand becomes a bottleneck when new machines arrive. Sizing the Air Compressor Pipe The pipe size is determined by the flow to be conveyed, the distance covered, the pressure at which work will be done, and the amount of pressure drop allowed. Large plants, even those using centrifugal compressors, require larger headers, capable of handling the entire compressor capacity. Step 1 - Add up the air demand of every user on each branch, allowing for how many run at once. Step 2 - Measure the length of all the mains and branches, and the equivalent lengths of any bends and valves. Step 3 - Decide on a satisfactory pressure drop between the compressor house and the furthest point of use, keeping it low. Step 4 - Select the pipe diameter that satisfies the requirement at full flow, then size for future growth. Step 5 - Look at drops and hoses at the point of use, where the fittings may cause the greatest loss. Choosing an Air Compressor Pipe Material Material Strengths Points to check Aluminium modular systems Smooth bore, light, quick to install and modify, corrosion resistant Fittings must be rated for the pressure and temperature Stainless steel Corrosion resistant, clean air, long life Higher material and installation cost Galvanised steel Strong and widely available Internal corrosion over time can shed particles; threaded joints can leak Copper Clean and corrosion resistant for smaller lines Cost rises quickly with size   Plastic tubing should not be used when it is not designed to handle compressed air. If there is an explosion, injuries may result. Check the pressure and temperature rating of every component, especially in hot UAE plant rooms. Designing the Network Layout Ring main system: the loop around the building will allow supply to users from both directions, resulting in reduced pressure loss and more consistent pressure than a single dead end pipeline. Pipework fall: the main pipework needs to have some fall in the direction of flow for drainage of condensate. Takes off the top: takes should come off the top of the main pipework, looping downward in order to prevent water from going to drops but staying in the main pipe. Valves for isolation: install valves in order to isolate the section being serviced. Storage near large users: an air receiver tank close to a high, short demand can steady pressure in the line. Draining Water From the Pipework Despite the dryer, water may come up in case of a dryer failure or even in downstream pipes beyond untreated branches. Drains should be fitted at low spots and the ends of the main line. Ensure that the drains in the receiver and filters are working. Treatment comes first: see our guides to air dryers and choosing a compressed air filter. Denair Compressed Air Systems From GENAVCO 1.

Send us your air demand by area and the pressure each user needs. We will review the compressor, dryer and filter selection for your demand. REQUEST A COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM REVIEW Compressed Air Piping in UAE Conditions Warm plant rooms and roof piping: pipe heated by the sun means that hot air is fed into the filters and users while fittings are put under pressure, and also moist air will give off water wherever the pipe is cooled. It is advisable to avoid exposing pipes to direct sunlight. High moisture at coast areas: more moisture gets into the system, thus it becomes more important to have dryers, drains, and the slope of the pipes. Dust: cover pipe ends when installing to prevent sand from getting into the system. Expansion: long runs move with temperature, so allow for expansion and support the pipe properly. Reasons for Selecting GENAVCO for Compressed Air Solutions The whole system: GENAVCO helps customers combine compressors, dryers and filters from the Denair compressors range. After sales service: spare parts are genuine, preventive maintenance and service at site. Member of Juma Al Majid Group since 1967: a renowned UAE Company certified to ISO 9001. Common Air Compressor Pipe Mistakes Small diameter mains: the compressor operates under higher pressure to compensate for this loss. End mains serving major customers: pressure drops on the downstream side during peak demand period. Branches taken from the bottom of the main: water flows straight into tools. Mixing materials and fittings: joints between different systems are common leak points. Ignoring leaks: small leaks across a plant add up to a large share of compressor output. Frequently Asked Questions What pipe size should I use for my air compressor? This depends on the flow, the distance and the pressure drop that can be accepted. The main piping should be sized for the whole compressor capacity and future expansion, while the branch pipings should be sized based on their load. What type of piping is good for compressed air? Aluminum modular systems and stainless steel are among the most common types due to their cleanliness and corrosion resistance properties. It all depends on your budget and air quality. Is a ring main better than a straight line? Usually yes. A ring main feeds each user from two directions, which reduces pressure drop and steadies pressure across the plant. Can I use PVC pipe for compressed air? Only pipe rated for compressed air should be used. Unrated plastic pipe can fail under pressure and shatter. Ready to Improve Your Air Distribution? Good air compressor pipe design delivers the pressure and air quality your process paid for. GENAVCO plans Denair screw compressor systems with the treatment and storage around them.

The automatic transfer switch (ATS) is the component that transfers the electrical load from the primary source of power to a backup generator in case of failure of the main power source, and back again when the mains is available. The automatic transfer switch monitors the supply and initiates the generator. Without it, someone has to start the generator and change over by hand. Search interest in automatic transfer switches has only started showing in Google Trends for the UAE in the last year, and the question behind it is simple: how does backup power actually take over? This guide discusses how an ATS functions, its various kinds, how to size an ATS, what needs to be tested, and the ATS compatible genset offered by GENAVCO. Operation of Automatic Transfer Switch Stage 1 - The ATS controller detects voltage and frequency in the mains supply. Stage 2 - In case of failure or variation beyond set values, there is a time delay for validation purposes to rule out any false signals. Stage 3 - A start signal is issued to the generator. Stage 4 - Once the voltage and frequency of the generator stabilize, the switch is activated to switch over to the generator supply. Stage 5 - Upon stabilization of mains, the ATS switch switches back to the mains. Stage 6 - The generator operates for a period of cooling down and then shuts off to await further action. Each delay can be adjusted individually. If timed properly, this ensures that there will be no nuisance start-ups when the input voltage drops momentarily. Manual vs Automatic Transfer Switch Factor Manual transfer switch Automatic transfer switch Who changes over A person at the panel The ATS controller Typical outage time Minutes, depending on who is on site Seconds, set by the start and transfer delays Best for Small sites with staff always present and non-critical loads Unattended sites, critical loads, night and weekend cover Risk Human error, delayed response Settings and testing must be maintained   Types of Transfer Arrangement Open transition (break before make): the load is disconnected from one source before connecting to the other. Simple and common, with a short break in supply. Closed transition (make before break): sources are paralleled for a moment on the return to mains, avoiding a second break. It needs synchronising controls and utility approval. Load shedding: the ATS or controller connects priority circuits first and adds others as capacity allows, which helps when the generator is smaller than the full building load. Our guide to backup generator planning covers critical load lists. Sizing an Automatic Transfer Switch Current rating: the ATS must carry the full current of the load it switches, with margin for future growth. Poles: three-phase systems usually need three or four poles, depending on how the neutral is arranged. Fault rating: the switch must withstand the fault current available at that point in the installation. Generator match: the generator must cover the load the ATS transfers, including motor starting. See our guide to generator sizing. Sizing and protection must be designed and signed off by a qualified electrical engineer in line with local authority rules. ATS-Ready Generators From GENAVCO 1. GPS Industrial Range (10 kVA - 2,500 kVA) Confirmed specification: product range from 10 kVA to 2,500 kVA with a closed canopy for sound attenuation, additional silencer options in hospital, residential and industrial grades, supply as 50 Hz or 60 Hz, and in-built fuel tanks with an option for external tanks.

Application fit: standby and prime power for buildings, industrial plants and infrastructure that need automatic changeover. View the GPS Industrial Range Planning standby power with automatic changeover? Send us your critical loads, supply arrangement and the outage time you can accept. We will propose the generator and changeover arrangement. REQUEST A STANDBY POWER PROPOSAL What an ATS Installation Includes Switch: motor-operated switches/contactors based on the load rating. Controller: to sense the supply, set the delays and start the generator. Wiring/cable & protective devices: selected based on the load and fault level. Generator start-up wiring: for signaling between ATS and the generator. Building Management System connection: Optional connection via the BMS. In comparing the quotation for a generator, one has to see whether the ATS and its installation are included. Testing the ATS Untested ATS is wishful thinking. Running periodic tests on a fully loaded system will demonstrate whether the generator started, there was a proper transfer and the delays were correctly set. Monthly: perform a test start of the generator using the ATS test facility and verify the transfer. Periodically: perform a simulated main failure test on a fully loaded system in the presence of the facility personnel. Following changes: perform tests after changes in loads, settings or control panels. Log all tests and delay settings for faults. Automatic Transfer Switches Under UAE Conditions During summer: Peak demand due to cooling loads; ensure that the generator and ATS can still handle the demand in August. Heat in panel room: Ventilate the switchgear room since heat reduces the life span of controllers and contacts. Dust: Ensure that enclosures are closed to prevent dust from getting in. Sensitive sites: Hospitals, data rooms, and cold storage should have minimal transfer time. GPS Series comes with hospital-quality silencers. Why Choose GENAVCO for Standby Power ATS-ready generators: the GPS Industrial Range is compatible with BMS and ATS. See the GPS power generation range. Installation and commissioning: GENAVCO handles installation and commissioning for Green Power sets and supports GPS equipment with installation and maintenance. One of the Juma Al Majid Group Companies since 1967: An experienced UAE dealer, ISO 9001 accredited, with accredited technicians and genuine spare parts. Common Faults in Using an Automatic Transfer Switch Undersized ATS for anticipated future loads: will require replacement in case of additional load. Too short delays: even minor drops can result in false starts and transfers. No testing under load: any issues may arise only in the event of a power failure. Generator not powerful enough to handle transferred loads: voltage and frequency drop in case of motor starting and may even trip the ATS. No prioritization of loads to transfer. Frequently Asked Questions What is the function of an automatic transfer switch? It senses the loss of mains power supply, engages the standby generator, and switches the load after the generator is stabilized, and again when the mains power supply is restored. How quickly can an automatic transfer switch switch to the generator? Generally within seconds, subject to confirmation time, generator startup time, and switching times. Essential loads that require uninterrupted power supply also require a UPS system. Do I need an ATS for my generator? Yes, when the generator is in an unmanned location or the load is critical because a switch is controlled manually and requires people to be present to start the generator and change over. Will the GENAVCO generators work with the ATS? Yes, the GPS Industrial Range 10 kVA to 2,500 kVA works with BMS, ATS and synchronisation. Ready to Plan Automatic Changeover? An automatic transfer switch turns a generator into dependable backup power.

The electric scissor lift is an elevation device driven by battery power and used to raise personnel and cargo vertically. Due to having no internal combustion engine, it emits no fumes and operates silently. Therefore, it becomes the go-to equipment for indoor construction jobs like warehouse maintenance, retail fit-out, office fit-out, MEP installation, and facility repair on a flat surface. Electric scissor lift is one of the highest searched items related to scissor lifts in the UAE, and there is increasing demand for small scissor lifts due to increasing fit-out jobs. Here are the guidelines on choosing an electric scissor lift over diesel or rough terrain and checking for height, width, and battery. The JLG electric scissor lift is supplied by GENAVCO. Electric vs Rough Terrain Scissor Lift Factor Electric scissor lift Rough terrain scissor lift Power Battery Diesel, gas or hybrid Emissions and noise No exhaust, low noise Exhaust and engine noise Best surface Smooth, level, firm floors Uneven outdoor ground, gravel and sand Width Narrow models fit through standard doorways Wider, for stability outdoors Typical work Indoor fit-out, maintenance, warehouses, malls Construction sites, external works   If the job is outdoors on rough ground, or needs to reach up and over obstacles, look at rough terrain scissors or boom lifts. For tight indoor spaces and uneven floors where a scissor cannot set up, spider lifts may suit better. Electric Scissor Lift - What to Inspect Platform height and working height: platform height is the floor of the cage; working height is usually quoted as around 2 m higher. Match it to the highest task, not the ceiling. Width: narrow machines pass through doors and between racking. Measure the tightest opening on the route. Platform capacity: add up people, tools and materials. Restrictions on capacity apply even when deck is extended. Floor loadings: verify slab ratings of upper floors, mezzanine floorings and raised floors prior to bringing the lift in. Battery/Charging: verify the runtime based on shift duration and charging locations. Tyres: use non-marking tyres for finishing floors in malls, hotels, and offices. The JLG Electric Scissor Lift From GENAVCO 1. JLG Electric Scissor Lift Confirmed specs: platform height of 5.79 meters (19 feet), platform load of 274.88 kilograms (606 pounds), machine width of 0.81 meters (2 feet 8 inches) and speed when driving with platform down of 6.44 kilometers per hour. Confirmed battery and recharging: a single lithium-ion battery that will last the entire life of the machine, plus a five minute recharge which yields 100 feet of travel and sufficient torque for loading. Confirmed ownership benefit: almost no maintenance, with a diagnostic and analyser tool that works on any smart device. Confirmed wider range: JLG scissor lifts come in electric and gas-powered rough terrain models with maximum platform heights of up to 15.24 m (50 ft), and a deck extension option up to 1.83 m (6 ft).

Please give us your working height, door width, floor surface, and the number of hours the lift is going to be used per day. We will suggest you the right scissor lift. REQUEST A SCISSOR LIFT RECOMMENDATION Where Are Electric Scissor Lifts Suitable for Use in the UAE? Shopping malls and fit-out shops: Quieter and cleaner machines that operate without shutting down other nearby units. Logistics warehouses and storage centers: Lights, fire sprinklers, signs, and racking maintenance in the aisles. Hotels, offices and hospitals: Minimal noise and no emissions indoors. MEP installation: ceiling services work with tools and materials on the platform. Factories and plant rooms: maintenance at height without exhaust indoors. UAE Conditions for Electric Scissor Lifts Indoor usage is optimal: air-conditioned environments are ideal for battery operated equipment. High outdoor temperatures: if the lift needs to be operated outdoors during summertime, verify the temperature rating of the battery and hydraulic systems provided by the manufacturer. Dust: dust off the equipment and inspect scissor pins and sensors after operation in dusty conditions. Wind: many lifts that have been designed for indoor use are not able to withstand outdoor wind forces. Steps Involved in Identifying the Electrical Scissor Lift Requirements Step 1 – Determine the maximum task height and add the reach of the operator to determine the platform height. Step 2 – Determine the minimum width of the door, lift or aisle to the task area. Step 3 – Determine the total weight of the personnel, tools, and equipment to be carried by the lift. Step 4 – Determine the floor load capacity for all floors where the lift will operate. Step 5 – Determine the shift length, charging location and charging time. Step 6 – Determine whether the work is to be done outdoors and determine the wind and temperature requirements. Training & Safety Trained operators: only trained and authorised people should operate a scissor lift. GENAVCO's Training Center provides operator and product safety training. Pre-start inspections: control devices, emergency descent, guardrails, tires, and battery power each shift. Within the guardrails only: don't climb onto the rails or use a ladder on the platform. Check ground condition first: look for depressions, gradients, and floor openings prior to elevating the platform. Why Choose GENAVCO for Electric Scissor Lifts JLG range: scissor lifts, articulating and telescopic boom lifts and vertical mast lifts from one maker. See JLG access equipment. Local service: GENAVCO service teams support JLG equipment in the UAE, with genuine parts. Member of the Juma Al Majid Group from 1967: An experienced UAE company certified under ISO 9001. Electric Scissor Lift Errors to Avoid Selecting based on ceiling height: select for job height, not building height. Neglecting the door opening: no access means no access to the job. Disregarding floor strength: upper or elevated floors may not be strong enough for the equipment and its weight. Using indoor lift outdoors: the elements will make the lift exceed its capacity. No charging arrangement: an empty battery means work stopped halfway through the day. Frequently Asked Questions Can an electric scissor lift be used outdoors? Some can, on firm level ground and within the manufacturer's wind and temperature limits. For rough ground, choose a rough terrain model. How long does an electric scissor lift battery last? It depends on the model and duty. The JLG model GENAVCO lists uses a single lithium-ion battery designed to last the life of the machine, with a five-minute quick charge for 100 ft of drive. What is the difference between platform height and working height? Platform height is the height of the platform floor. Working height is usually quoted as about 2 m higher, the height a person on the platform can reach. How high can JLG scissor lifts reach? JLG electric and rough terrain scissor lifts are available with maximum platform heights of up to 15.24 m (50 ft). Ready to Choose Your Electric Scissor Lift?

The cost of a road roller in the United Arab Emirates will first depend on the kind of road roller being used, such as walk behind, compact tandem, tandem, single drum, and pneumatic tyred road rollers, followed by operating weight, drum width, vibration system, sprinkler, and cab system. Each type does a different job in the compaction sequence, so the cheapest roller is the one that matches the layer it compacts. Road roller price is a small search in the UAE, but the people asking are ready to buy. The following is an explanation of the factors that determine the cost of the roller, how to compare the quotes, the number of rollers needed by the paving train, and the position of HAMM and Husqvarna rollers supplied by GENAVCO. Roller Type Sets the Road Roller Price Bracket Type GENAVCO example Typical work Walk-behind double drum Husqvarna walk-behind rollers Footpaths, trench reinstatement, patch repairs Compact ride-on rollers HAMM HD 8 VV, HD 14 VT Car parks, cycle paths, small asphalt jobs, close to walls Large tandem HAMM HD 110 Asphalt compaction on roads and highways Single drum soil compactor HAMM HC 119i Subgrade, sub-base and earthworks Pneumatic tyred roller HAMM pneumatic tyre rollers Sealing and finishing asphalt surfaces   Most road projects need more than one type. Our guide to road rollers in the UAE explains which machine belongs on which layer. What Else Moves Road Roller Price Weight of machine and drum width: heavier and wider machines are more expensive and more compacting per run. Vibration system: single or dual amplitude vibration and whether vibration can be controlled front, rear or combined. Turning and driving: articulation, crab steering and all-wheel drive impact handling on hillsides and edges. Water sprinkler: pressure type water sprayers help prevent asphalt from sticking to the drums during longer runs. Cab: ROPS, canopy or full cab, air conditioning and light for night work. Support package: warranty, regular maintenance service and spare parts availability. Comparing Two Roller Quotes Step 1 - Compare the same roller type, operating weight and drum width. Step 2 - Check the vibration system, amplitudes and frequency. Step 3 - Check sprinkler capacity, drive type and cab equipment. Step 4 – Engine performance, emissions level, and consumption of fuel. Step 5 – Verify warranty and service schedule information. Step 6 - Estimate cost per square metre compacted to specification, not price alone. HAMM and Husqvarna Rollers From GENAVCO 1. HAMM HD 110 Tandem Roller Confirmed features: driver seat, steering wheel and instrument panel that swivel and rotate for a clear view of the drum edge, hydrostatic all-wheel drive for hill climbing, vibration switchable front, rear or together, and a pressure sprinkler system with two water pumps.

View HAMM pneumatic tyre rollers Comparing roller quotes for a paving or earthworks job? We need your layer details, layer thickness, production per day, and site access to send you our recommendation and quotation for rollers. REQUEST A ROLLER QUOTE Roller Matching to the Paving Train In asphalt paving operations, the rollers have to be matched to the paver and the supply of asphalt so that compaction of the mat takes place during the temperature window period. Not enough rollers would result in density problems while excess rollers would result in idle equipment. Our guides to tandem double drum rollers and pneumatic tyred rollers explain how each works in the train. Running Cost of Road Roller in UAE Environment Heat: extra energy required for the rollers, cooling system, and the crew in summer. Water: increased water requirement in case of sprinklers for long asphalt operations. Dust: increased need for cleaning air filters and the cooling system due to dusty environment. Night work: need for lighting and cab comfort. Why Choose GENAVCO for Road Rollers HAMM compaction range: single drum, tandem and pneumatic tyred rollers from one maker. See HAMM compaction equipment. Compact options: Husqvarna walk-behind rollers for confined areas. Parts and service: genuine parts, maintenance programmes and certified technicians through GENAVCO. Part of the Juma Al Majid Group since 1967: an established UAE supplier with ISO 9001 certification. Common Blunders While Buying Road Rollers One roller per layer: soil requires a different roller from asphalt. Weight is not the sole factor: vibration and drum width are equally important. Insufficient number of rollers: failure of compaction costs more than an additional roller. Neglecting the sprinkler: inadequate sprinkler results in pickup in hot asphalt. No spare parts policy: an idle roller leads to idling of the entire paving crew. Frequently Asked Questions What is the price of road roller in the UAE? It varies according to the roller model, weight, width of drums, vibration system, cab and accessories package. Ask for a full quotation on the rollers needed by your layers.
