As a grit classifier manufacturer and a worldwide grit classifier supplier, Vortex Engineering provides large variety of design options.
Grit that is collected and pumped from the grit chambers to grit classifiers still contain large amount of water. Therefore it needs to be dewatered before getting discharged.
Grit classifiers are designed to separate grit from the water and transport it to the discharge point.
The grit-water mixture is pumped from the grit chambers into the decantation tank of the grit classifier. The grit slowly settles as it has higher density than the water itself.
Inclined rotating shaftless screw slowly conveys the settled grit to the discharge line at the top.
