DESCRIPTION AND REASONS REQUIRED
A. Proposed Work and Cost
Funds of---------------------------------------------------- -------.................... ...... ...........$5356 are requested to purchase and Install an air operated lead carbonate pump.
B. Present Situation
Basic lead carbonate is made in two carbonating tanks and pumped into a holding tank above the c-rk m dryer. It is then dried, ground ana further processed as required. The pumping operation to the holding tank above the drum dryer is accomplished by the use of a steam pump manufactured in June, 1966. This steam pump wfl1 require $1110 In parts and approximately $1500 in labor to repair for a total outlay .of $2618. Due to the worn parts, the pump leaks carbonate sierry on the floor and into the sewer system, adding to the plants effluent problem. This pump is at the end of its useful life, and the plant has no other pump which could be us2 ! as a replacement in case of pump failure.
C. Justification
The plant cannot manufacture basic lead carbonate or make carbonate based blends without a carbonate slurry pump. This pump is used to transfer the slurry from the carbonator to the dryer. Sales for 1978 for basic lead carbonate stabilizers were 2,500 k pounds at $1,174 k with a profit of $303 k. In addition, carbonate blend sales were 1,311 k pounds at $518.8 k with a profit of $175.4 k.
The existing steam pump can only be operated on the day shift, Monday through Friday, since it requires the use of high pressure steam during the day shift to operate. The plant only operates on high pressure steam during the day shift, Monday through Friday, since a stationary engineer must be present when the boilers are fired on high pressure. Only the services supervisor has a stationary engineer's license. The replacement diaphram pump will operate on readily available plant air.
A trial pump, the same as will be purchased, was used to pump the carbonate slurry for over a month without a breakdown or problem of any kind.

E. DETAILS OF PROPOSAL
The plant .v/T11. purchase one Wilden Model m-15-S air operated
double diaphragm pump, with spare parts and necessary three inch piping and fittings to install. Present steam pump wi11 be scraped.
F. PRODUCT 1 ON FACTORS
This proposal will not alter product quality or production rates.
6^ CONTINGENT FUTURE COMMITMENTS
This proposal will not require additional funds to complete.
H. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Repair the present steam pump. This was rejected because of the high cost of parts, labor, and limited useful life.
The new pump will be cheaper to maintenance.
I. RISKS
No operating risks are involved.
J. CONCISE SUMMARY
This is a replacement of a physical1y exhausted pump with a better pump.
