How it works

Finally, a fully automated and reliable automatic sludge water discharge system!

For the detection of sludge water layers, the automatic sludge water discharge system moves up and down within the filled part of the tank, driven by the suction unit.
As soon as a layer of sludge water is detected, the suction unit initiates the sucking process until the layer is completely eliminated. This process is automatically repeated in each layer of sludge detected.
Once the entire tank has been assessed, the suction unit returns to its default waiting position until the next manual, automatic or remote start is initiated.

At the heart of the automatic sludge water discharge system is the suction unit that consists of a submerged pump and a sludge water sensor. The suction unit can be driven up and down within the tank by a stainless-steel hoist.

The ultrasonic measuring principle of the sludge water sensor ensures long-term cleaning and maintenance-free operation.
Due to the colour - independence, sludge water density of all kinds can be reliably detected.
The sludge water detection is carried out via a freely adjustable density threshold value, which is variable over the course of the day.

Depending on the tank design and the customer requirements, there is some flexibility in how the control unit is attached to the tank.
With highly visible status lights and intuitive function buttons for the most important system functions, the control unit is quick and convenient to use.
The touchscreen version shows information on:
- the program sequence
- the plant parameter settings
- maintenance data
- statistical data on run-times and quantity of water discharged
- graphical profile evaluation of the sludge water density distribution in the tank.

Due to the flexibility of the design, the unit can be adapted to fit almost any type of tank.
The covered gearbox is attached at a height which allows easy access for maintenance works.
The freely swingable and extendable arm allows exact positioning of the suction unit.
The attachment to the tank can be carried out with a stand or a clamp.
