 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OF
THICKENER
 Initial start-up:
• Before operating the thickener, be sure to check the motor
rotation to ascertain that it is rotating in correct direction.
• Check that all the equipment has been lubricated.
• Rakes should be in their lowest position, check the clearance
between rake scraper blades and tank bottom slopes.
• To start-up thickener, start the rakes rotating and then
introduce the feed.
• After the bottom bed has built up a little and solids have
started towards the discharge trough, turn on the underflow
discharge pump.
• It may be preferred to start up the thickener full of clear water
before introducing the feed.
 Normal shut-down:
• To shut-down the thickener under normal conditions, turn off feed
but continue to pump away the underflow until no more solids are
drawn-off.
• At this point, shut off the underflow pump and lift the rakes clear of
the solids bed by activating the rake lifting device. After raising the
rakes, thickener may be stopped.
 Normal re-start:
• to re-start the thickener after shut-down, first ensure that rakes are
in raised position, then start the thickener.
• The rakes can be lowered gradually until they come in contact with
the solid bed, then turn on the underflow pump to draw off solids.
• After the rakes are completely lowered the feed should be re-
introduced.
 Unscheduled shut-down:
• When an unscheduled shut-down occurs, it will be necessary,
before restarting the thickener, to raise the rakes
 OPERATING TECHNIQUES OF
THICKENER
• Assuming that the quantities of water and solids
in the thickener feed is fixed, and the purpose of
thickener is to give an overflow of certain clarity
and underflow of constant, high density, there
are two general operating variables.
1. Underflow discharge rate (pump rate)
2. Flocculants addition rate
• These variables are generally adjusted on the
basis of 3 measurements;
1. Slime level
2. Drive torque
3. Underflow density
