Systems overview

RAUBIOXON PLUS (Silicone) RAUBIOFLEX (EPDM)

REHAU’s innovative RAUBIOXON silicone membrane has RAUBIOFLEX is a high quality EPDM membrane system
consistently delivered superior performance with regard with excellent oxygen transfer rates designed to meet
to resistance to fouling and better long-term oxygen most project capital budgets.
transfer rate. The RAUBIOXON silicone membrane is
a homogenous inert material that does not require any
plasticiser for flexibility, meaning that it maintains its
physical properties for the entire service life and fouls at
a much lower rate than traditional technologies.

The result is longer service life + reduced back-pressure

build up = lower power consumption + reduced
maintenance costs + higher long term oxygen transfer
rates.

Quick saddle

REHAU has developed the pipe and disc saddle lock connection to
speed up installation:
• Snap-on fastener for fast installation and removal when required
• No risk of loosening of aerator
• No tool required

HOW IT WORKS

Patented saddle lock connection means effortless and fast installation of REHAU pipe aerators. With the two-step saddle lock
connection, installation time is reduced from 60 man-hours to 8 man-hours for a typical medium-size sewage treatment plant using
pipe aerators with threaded connection system.

West Hornsby STP Pipe Aerator Trial:

The chart below shows that after three years, the RAUBIOXON PLUS pipe aerators were operating at a pressure loss of 5kPa less than the
EPDM diffusers, which equates to more than 10% reduction in blower power consumption (using the ideal isentropic compressor equation)**.
