Hydro-Dyne Sand Shark Grit Removal Systems

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Sand Shark Grit Removal Systems are designed to provide efficient and economical solutions for removing grit particles from wastewater flows. These systems are well-suited for handling variable flow rates, with standard grit trap chambers capable of processing up to 70 MGD (3,000 L/s) per unit. The Sand Shark equipment family includes the Sand Shark Grit Trap, Sand Shark Grit Classifier & Hydro-Cyclone, and Grit Pump options.

The Sand Shark Grit Trap utilizes a vortex-style system with a rotating impeller to maximize grit capture and eject light organic solids from the chamber. The Sand Shark Grit Classifier features a shafted screw flight to elevate, dewater, and dispose of grit, while the Hydro-Cyclone effectively separates grit particles without any moving parts. Various grit pump options are available to suit the specific configuration of each application.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
