  • Dewatering drum is mounted on a roll-off frame making it easily transported.
  • Drum is supported by greaseable roller bearings.
  • Drum rotates with roller chain.
  • Gear box turns by variable speed motor.
  • Low energy required: ¼ / ½ horsepower motor.
  • There are two doors on the back of the drum; one for inspection while filling, the other hinged door for unloading the dry material. There is an additional manhole port on the front for inspection as well.
  • Three inch quick cam lock for loading liquid.
  • Unit is lined with PVC filter tiles.
  • Tiles are interlocking and replaceable.
  • Tiles are self cleaning.
  • Water is constantly being drained while the drum is being filled.
  • Liquid can be added to drum several times before being rotated.
  • Once full, or ready to be rotated, the inspection door must be secured before rotating unit.
  • The ideal speed seems to be one revolution every 2 hours.
  • The drum always rotates toward the gearbox.
  • After approximately 5 revolutions the unit is ready to be loaded on a roll-off truck to be emptied.
  • Drum must be rotated until dry sludge is parallel with the door opening.
  • Once the material is centered in the bottom of the drum it must be secured for transport.
  • Securing is achieved by tightening the ratchet with the straps hooked on the frame.
  • To unload material the wing nuts that secure the door must be loosened (suggestion: loosening all but one wing nut while the drum is on the ground. This becomes more difficult as machine is higher up once positioned on truck).
  • Once unit has been emptied it is ready to be rinsed out prior to the next fill.
  • A normal rinse time would be 10 minutes with a garden hose and spray nozzle. (video)
  • Unit works well with any liquid that will flocculate.
  • Drum is made completely of stainless steel and PVC.
  • Results are very predictable and consistent (no surprises).
