Power Pack Options
Remote Power Pack
The Remote Power Pack option allows the hydraulic power unit and electrical panel box to be mounted separately from the packer. Remote Power Units are used in applications where the packer is installed in a locations which may occasionally flood, is subject to dust or other harsh conditions. Push buttons are mounted in the face of the electrical panel box or, if specified, as a separate assembly connected to 13′ Sealtite. Hydraulic couplings are welded in the side of the compactor. The power unit is connected to the compactor by two 7 foot wire braided hoses. A steel Weather Cover an NEMA 3R Electrical Panel Box is provided to protect the components. The Weather Cover tilts back for maintenance and easy access to the hydraulic components. Mark-Costello manufactures its power units with only the highest quality components.
Oil Cooler
When the compactor operates for long periods of time without shutdown, the power unit should be equipped with an Oil Cooler.
Oil Heater – Thermostatically Controlled
The Thermostatically Controlled Oil Heater is installed in the oil reservoir and is equipped with a manually adjustable thermostat control so that the heater is functioning only when required (does not have to be disconnected during the summer months.) Its temperature range cannot exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tri-Volt Option
The Tri-Volt Option is offered as a time saver and for convenience. With this option, it is very easy to convert from 3 phase/208 volt to 230, to 460 and back to 208 volt. The only additional parts needed are the overload heater elements (sized to voltage and motor size – see chart in compactor’s electrical panel box.) This option consists of a tri-volt transformer, motor and motor starter sized large enough for any of the 3 voltages. Voltage changes are made by rewiring the motor and the transformer and changing heating elements. The Tri-Volt Option is available for all Mark-Costello Compactors.
Odor Control Systems
Ozone Odor Control System
The Ozone Odor Control System generates ozone, a powerful oxidizer which breaks down odor molecules and converts them into water vapor and other odorless, harmless gases. In addition to eliminating all odors from the air, the ozone-rich atmosphere inhibits germ and bacteria growth. The system requires no chemicals or fragrances and only incidental, routine service. All units except those installed on Vert-I-Pack Compactors require a separate 110 volt power source.
Deodorant Spray System
The Deodorant Spray System consists of an electrical pump with enclosure, a 5 gallon reservoir and spray head(s). The pump operation is energized on the forward stroke of the packer ram. The reservoir is a polyethylene container which is removable for easy remote filling or, if installed on non-remote Horizontal Packers, the reservoir is accessible for refilling through a hinged cover in the packer top cover.
