LX-Series sewage treatment

Product catalog summary

Overview: The LX-Series by Smith & Loveless Inc. is designed for harbor tugs and small commercial vessels, offering modular systems certified by USCG and IMO. These systems are self-cleaning, lightweight, and economical, requiring minimal maintenance and no special training.

Features: The system includes a blower, pump, chlorinator, valves, and controls for automatic operation. It uses Fixed Activated Sludge Treatment (FAST®) technology, which is a biological process for sewage treatment. The system is certified under USCG 33 CFR Part 159 and IMO rules.

Specifications: The system can treat sewage from various sources, including toilets, showers, and galleys, with a rated capacity for any population on board. It operates under conditions with a maximum air temperature of 50°C and a minimum water temperature of 10°C, with a maximum roll of ±45°. It can handle up to 150% of its rated capacity for 24 hours.

Construction and Maintenance: The system is built with heavy-duty salvage drums meeting DOT 49 CFR Part 173.3. Maintenance involves adding chlorine tablets, with consumption rates specified for different toilet types.

Options and Flexibility: Options include secondary treatment for lower effluent BOD5 and SS levels, alternative electric service, and the use of laundry bleach instead of chlorine tablets. The system is flexible, handling both fresh and seawater sewage, and is compact with a lower operating weight compared to competitors.

Reliability and Proven Performance: The FAST® LX-Series is reliable, durable, and resistant to corrosion in seawater. Since 1969, approximately 4,500 systems have been delivered, with most still in operation.
