Disc thickener Solidxdrain C

A slowly rotating, inclined and perforated disc is covered with screen cloth. Conditioned sludge is evenly distributed over the radius of the disc by a guiding device. The thin sludge accumulates at the low point of the disc, creating a hydrostatic pressure that ensures better drainage of the filtrate. During the upward movement, rotating disturbing bodies gently rearrange the sludge so that a free screening surface is always created for unhindered filtrate discharge. At the discharge, a specially shaped scraper pushes the thickened sludge from the disc into the outlet box. Between discharge and feed, the screen is cleaned by water nozzles. Performance and efficiency: – Available in 3 sizes – Volume reduction > 85 – Typical final solids content > 6 % TR – Low polymer consumption – Low specific power consumption – Operating time 97 %. – Degree of thickening can be optimised by adjusting throughput, polymer dosing and speed – Easy maintenance due to large inspection flaps – Encapsulated machine also allows thickening of odour-intensive sludges odour-intensive sludges – Automated 24-hour operation possible – Dismantling of the filter and seals possible without without dismantling the gear motor – Low speed – Low maintenance
