1 Manure Handlers
The old strongarm method of Manure Handling
gives way to new muscle from PATZ namely
the Slurry Manure Pump and compressed-air
Liquid Manure Mover These modern methods
of manure movement provide simplicity,
rugged construction, operational ease,
dependability, plus convenience
Slurry Manure Pump
Slurry or tree flowing manure is pumped from a 180
gallon hopper under ground through 12 in PVC pipe to
the manure holding area (If bedding is used only fine
cut is recommended) Stroke is adjustable and driven by
tough roller chain drive/reduction unit Plunger sleeve
and one-way valves all can be removed for servicing
Liquid Manure Mover
Big 1700 (US) gallon below-ground pressure vessel
collects slurry that is moved simply and easily by as little
as 10-12 lbs of air pressure through 12 in PVC pipe to
manure storage area Simplicity in design, turning
swmg-away hatch cover, one-way valve at bottom and
flapper valve at the discharge end are the only
moving parts
