PistaGrit Chamber

SHARE

CST is the Australian Representative Office for Smith & Loveless. The prevailing method of grit removal globally is the vortex grit chamber – the PISTA® unit. Smith & Loveless research and development engineers have dramatically improved the original PISTA®Grit Chamber design. This has led to several patents on the design by Smith & Loveless, including a flat bottom in the grit removal chamber, an inlet baffle with a coanda ramp and redesigned rotating propellor, all of which work together to enhance flow conditions. There are close to 2000 PISTA® Systems installed worldwide and Smith & Loveless is the world leader in this technology.
