SludgeHammer - Model S-600 -Wastewater Treatment Microbial Culture
Recommended for Multi-family or commercial installations. This is our NSF 40 system for larger residences. Use where advanced treatment is necessary.
The SludgeHammer is certified to have met the Class 1 treatment standards when tested by NSF International. The S-600 model treats up to 600 gallons per day and is installed in the inlet chamber of a 2,000 gallon standard septic tank.
Air is delivered to the SludgeHammer column where it is distributed into the column through a micro fine-bubble diffuser. As the air rises it displaces liquid in the column setting up circulation through the column with liquid entering the column at the base and leaving at the top. A packet of proprietary “SludgeHammer Blend” bacteria and enzymes is introduced into the unit and held in a central refuge where it is supplied with a continuous stream of aerated liquid.
