E&I Corp - Catenary Grit & Heavy Media Collectors

The Catenary Grit Collector / Heavy Media Collector utilizes the Catenary in yet another application. This Catenary concept has the heavy duty chain and flights entering the chamber from the tail end of the chamber. The chain / flights are then pulled along the chamber floor, moving the settled grit or heavy media towards the inclined beach area. While continuing up the incline, the collection is dewatered before it is discharged into a container or other device. The transition, `Catenary`, between the chamber floor and incline is computer designed, using the weight of the material to be removed, along with the chain and flight weight.
