difficult municipal and in
dustrial applications for
more than 30 years. It was
especially designed for
manure handling use by
installing a cutting plate at
the inlet and employing an S
shaped impeller to prevent
fibrous material from win
ding around it. The cutting
blade is equipped with
reversible hardened blades
that cut straw, litter, and
fodder waste before they
enter the pump, which
minimizes the risk clogging.
