The project plan: The base
for ideal starting point
INTRODUCTION
The planning and design of a system starts with drawing up a project
plan. This involves the graphic representation of the ski trails or snowmaking system, and provides the basis for designing and developing
the concept. Once the areas to be covered in snow have been defined, the pumping stations, pipelines and snowmakers are designed
individually for the customer and illustrated in the project plan. This
provides you with a clear framework for your project. Assisted by strict
quality control procedures, experts from DEMACLENKO guide you
through the entire project.

Artificial lake in Tändadalen (SE) and at Piz Sella (IT)
Reservoirs are the ideal solution for ski areas where large quantities of water are not available.
Reservoirs constantly ensure the necessary water feed for the system, and therefore guarantee the
constant availability of water over the brief snowmaking period.
Plan of Qebele artificial
lake, Azerbaijan (AZ)
STREAM/RIVER: The river
supplies our most important
raw material: water. The water
needed for snow production is
catched from nearby rivers or
streams by various pumping
devices.
RESERVOIR: Water availability
WATER SUPPLY
CIRCULATION: This technique
is used to keep the surface of the
water ice free, lower the temperature of the water and prevent the
formation of algae in the summer.
The DEMACLENKO lake aeration
system is planned and adapted for
every artificial lake.
WATER SUPPLY
must be guaranteed during
snow production, so that
every minute of the snowmaking period can be exploited.
DEMACLENKO creates a huge
range of solutions – from small
reservoirs to large ones with a
capacity of up to 400.000m³
(105,688,000 gallons).

Cooling System
Cooling system, warm water basin, and cold water basin. Ideally,
the water is pumped from the stilling or warm water basin to the cooling tower. Thanks to the special honeycomb mesh and counterflow
of air, the water is efficiently cooled before it flows into the cold water
basin. The solutions developed by DEMACLENKO, such as the layout
and positioning of the cooling towers close to the basin, have proven their effectiveness in all systems around the world. A cooling system lowers the water temperature and increases the efficiency of the
snowmaking system. The colder water enhances snow production
and the snowguns’ efficiency, therefore optimising energy efficiency.
Submersible pump. The warm water that is conveyed to the cooling
towers is cleaned again beforehand, to remove the remaining residues
of dirt particules. The KC type pumps used are special submersible
models for fluids. They impress with their superior quality, reliability
and long life, and are ideally suited for use directly in the water.
In the cold water basin, DEMACLENKO prefers to install a multi-stage immersion pump, to ensure an exact and constant inlet pressure
through the self-cleaning filter and the pumps on the surface.
The 3D drawings of the
pumping stations precisely illustrate every
detail, ensuring that the
pumping station design
perfectly meets the customer’s requirements.

PIPES: DEMACLENKO plans every station down to
the smallest detail – building plans mostly form the
basis for this. Pipework plans provide the first insight
into the type of pumping station to be constructed.
This way, all the pipework, from the low-pressure wall
duct to brackets, pipe supports, drainpipes and small
pipes, can be prefabricated in the appropriate pressure stages and, in most cases, galvanised by trained
specialists in our in-house metalworking shops.

and their drives (electric, pneumatic, manual) are selected
to suit each customer’s requirements, and positioned in
the most user-friendly way. The pumping station is then
completed by measuring and control instrumentation and
electrical measuring and control devices from renowned
manufacturers.

Self-cleaning filter. Even with extremely dirty water, automatic water filters guarantee non-stop operation of the system. The flushing
process takes place after set periods or is activated automatically by
the differential pressure caused by the dirt.
UV water disinfection system. Single or multi-stage disinfection
systems can be provided if the customer wishes or if required by
the authorities. UV treatment ensures that the water is clean from a
biologically and bacteriologically clean.
High-pressure pumps. DEMACLENKO uses single or multi-stage
high-pressure pumps as primary pumps, as they are extremely reliable, robust and efficient. Our horizontal high-pressure pumps boast
a pressure output of 1-100 bar (14-1450 PSI) and are driven with the
aid of inverters and soft starters.
Electrical cabinets. The electrical cabinets are also planned and
implemented by DEMACLENKO. Here, DEMACLENKO makes use
of the latest, most innovative technologies on the market. Efficiency
and an ideal user interface enable smooth handling by the snowmakers.

High-pressure pumps: The dimensions of these pumps are established depending on the required flow rate or static head
Mobile pumps. These are suitable for producing snow over small
to medium-sized areas, or for temporary solutions where there is no
fixed infrastructure. The different versions enable the use of up to
two snowmakers. Mobile pumps are especially suitable for getting
the necessary snow onto cross-country ski routes or toboggan runs.

The compressor station for
systems with central compressed
air supply
Compressed air is a fundamental prerequisite for snowmaking. A centralised compressed air supply can be put in place. In this case, the
snow guns do not have their own compressors, but are supplied with
compressed air from the compressor station via PE pipes. DEMACLENKO uses compressors of the very best brands, which are designed
for the air consumption of snowmakers.
Ventilation systems are planned and installed, to optimise the compressed air and ambient temperatures. From simple support fans to
channelled ventilation systems, our specialists get to grips with every
necessity.

Air contains water and oil residues from the compressors, dirt particles
and other contaminants commonly found in the air. By using a variety
of filters, compressed air free of impurities, is transported throughout
the compressed air system.

Pipes: Air and water piping for perfect supply
Cast iron (water). Ductile cast iron has very strong mechanical properties. The restraining push-fit
joint ensures absolute tightness, even under major loads. Even at a pressure of up to 100 bar (1470
PSI), subsidence, soil movement, erosion and forces due to internal pressure are offset with maximum safety and reliability. Fewer pipe fittings are needed, as the pipe joints can bend up to 5°.

Steel. Steel pipes with quick-release couplings can be produced with especially thin
walls without impairing their dimensional stability. Their low weight eases transportation, handling and installation. Untreated steel pipes can be supplied either with or
without PE anticorrosion coating outer insulation, and are welded on the construction site.

PE (air). For water transport and distribution pipes and, in particular, for air pipes
where central compressor stations are used, DEMACLENKO employs polyethylene
pipes of material grade PE100. PE pipes are supplied in bars or rolls, depending on
the diameter and requirement, and are securely connected by means of electro-welded joints or threaded connections. Our offer is rounded off by a large range of fittings.

Cables: High-quality materials
for special needs
Power cables. DEMACLENKO uses aluminium or copper cables for
power lines in compliance with the relevant national standards. The
cables have a cross-section from 10-240 mm² (½” to 9 ½”) and are
inserted and buried underground either directly or with a cable conduit.
Grounding. The ground wire generally consists of zinc-coated steel
with a diameter of 10 mm² (½”) or, if necessary, with a separate conductor, in line with regulations. The grounding system connects the entire
system and protects it from power surges and lightning strikes.
Communication cables. The data connection between the different
parts of the system is accomplished with protected cables that are
suitable for routing directly underground, but are preferably inserted
in a cable conduit. Over large distances and for large volumes of data,
fibre-optic cables are used.
Tapping points: Pits and overground hydrants
for use in the mountains
Pits. When designing the tapping points, DEMACLENKO pays particular attention to the question
of installation and maintenance, but also to safety and work convenience. DEMACLENKO offers
pits of concrete (series C) or fibreglass reinforced plastic (series Z). Both types are ideal for use in
the snowmaking sector. As we prefabricate the parts, they can be installed on the construction site
quickly and easily, and are suitable for all types of ground. The pits are specially shaped to allow
pleasant working, as there is very generous space inside. There are double hatches in the pits, so
that one can be used exclusively for access, while the second, thanks to its flange connection, can
accommodate any type of snowmaker – from mobile versions to lances and even tower-mounted
fan guns. This means that separate foundations are no longer required to fix snowmakers in a permanent location. In addition, the pits contain all the connections for water, air, electricity and control.
For this reason, pits from DEMACLENKO offer a fantastic level of convenience and flexibility.

DEMACLENKO has developed the special snowVisual control system, which is optimised for controlling snowmakers, pumping stations and cooling towers. snowVisual features a smart user interface, enabling you to control and monitor the system at all times. Once the necessary operating
conditions for snowmaking have been reached, snowVisual starts up the snowmaker in the blink of
an eye.
The entire snowmaking system on the screen. With control software snowVisual by DEMACLENKO, not only will you find general information about snowmaking products, but also a view of
the entire system, which you can access from anywhere at your convenience. Detailed zooming enables you to check individual snowmakers, weather stations and pumping stations in real time. Two
screens are available: the first provides geographical orientation, the second shows details of the
individual components. Filters enable fast and efficient use.
Always everything under control. snowVisual guarantees that important parameters, such as the
water temperature and water pressure of the snowmaker and the water and electricity consumption of the pumping station, are regularly updated. Its optimum management of resources ensures
high-quality snowmaking.
Reporting. snowVisual features a highly detailed reporting function, enabling you to analyse the system at any time. This way, you can improve production sequences and considerably reduce the time
and running cost of setting the snow making system. For example, the quantity of snow produced
per pit can be measured and analysed with great accuracy.
