Munchers

Munchers are used to effectively macerate raw sewage, sludges, sewage screenings and industrial process flows. Available for pipeline or channel installations, the shaft speed of 85 rpm offers low cutter tip speeds and therefore dramatically reduces wear rates in comparison to high speed macerators.


Areas of Applications

  • Protection of pumps to eliminate blockages
  • Submersible pump protection
  • Fine grinding of sewage and sludges
  • Disintegration of extracted screenings
  • Head of works maceration
  • Industrial sewage maceration
  • Mud contaminated drill cuttings
  • Food products and waste
  • Slaughterhouse waste
  • Aircraft sewage
  • Prison waste water maceration


Features

Power savings, elimination of manual handling and associated transport costs, odour control and automated operation are all achieved when installing Munchers to replace conventional screening systems to existing or proposed submersible pump stations

Mono ETOS cutters offer positive and effective solids maceration

Optional high flow side rails allow higher capacities whilst reducing the possibility of solids passing through without being macerated – typically an increase in capacity of 40%

Can be installed in an existing concrete channel or in a fabricated frame, complete with guide rails, into an existing submersible pump station as a simple and quick retrofit

Each Muncher is supplied with a programmable logic controller (PLC) to protect the machine against damage and overloads

Munchers can be supplied to comply with the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC
