Grabage Chute
garbage Chute System Overview
A garbage chute system is designed to facilitate the efficient disposal
of waste in multi-story buildings. Here’s a breakdown of its
components and functionality:
Components
Chute:
A vertical shaft that allows waste to be dropped from upper floors to
a collection point.
Typically constructed from durable materials like steel or reinforced
plastic.
Hopper:
Located on each floor, it serves as the opening for waste disposal.
May include a door or flap to prevent odors and pests from escaping.
Collection Bin:
Positioned at the bottom of the chute to collect the waste.
Often designed for easy removal and emptying.

5. Brush unit
A secondary pendant control allows manual lifting and lowering of the brush unit for maintenance. The brush unit features a robust rubber cylindrical housing with embedded stiff nylon brushes, raised and lowered by a geared electric motor. These durable nylon brushes effectively scrape and clean the internal surface of the smell-proof chute as they move up and down, maintaining hygiene and preventing bacterial growth.

7-Cleaning Sprinklers :
Spray head located on all floors behind the door opening for cleaning issues.
8. Fire Sprinkler
8. Fire Sprinklers :
Glass bulb sprinklers installed for fire detection inside the chute on each floor 1/2” IPS, 68°C (165°F).
Glass Sprinklers can be used in conjunction with a normal water supply at a pressure of up to 8 bar.
Smoke Detection System:
This system shall be provided by the fire alarm subcontractor.

Intake doors are provided in the service room on each floor and are designed to eject loose or bagged refuse (discharge garbage) directly into a refuse chute or a container. Intake doors have an effective self-sealing system.
10. Chute Pipe
11. Intake Throat
On each floor there is an intake throat for the hopper door.

12. Fire Damper
13. Chute Offset
13. Elbow
Factory fabricated from the same material as the refuse chute, but in a heavier gauge to withstand the impact of falling bags. Offsets should not be less than 45° from the horizontal. Offsets are fabricated to all diameters of refuse and linen chutes provided by Ecosteel.
14. Chute Offset
14. Fire Cut-Off Door
Fire Cut Off Door has a horizontal rolling door held by a spring on each side connected to a fusible link. In case of excessive heat (or fire) the link gets fused at 165° F (68°C) causing the door to roll shut. The discharge is 2 hours fire rated.
15. Trolley
16. Control Panel
16. Control Panel
Controls the entire automated systems within the chute. Operates the cleaning system. Controls the function of electromagnetic door locks with the presence of an emergency button which isolates electricity and stop all the running functions.
