Here at Mason's Chrome View Dairy in Nottingham , Pa., we have installed a
Houle Electromix Pump feeding a McClanahan Sand Separator.
The slurry composition is scraped dairy manure, sand bedding, and no parlor water from about 500 cows.
This installation was completed in June 2008.
The Houle Electromix Pump pumps thick material with little or no added water
using low h.p. electric motors. Minimum maintenance is required. Some units have been in operation for over 20 years.
Organic matter is removed by a Fan screw press separator, which is featured at the beginning of the video.
A hydraulic slow-down kit was installed to enable adjustment of volume to the sand separator.
