USED ALAR ENGINEERING 660

MANUFACTURER INFORMATION
Alar Engineering Corporation manufactures industrial wastewater treatment and solid/liquid separation equipment. Auto-Vac rotary vacuum drum filter systems are designed for continuous filtration, solids separation and dewatering of compatible wastewater, sludge, slurry and other water-based process streams.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Used Alar Engineering Corporation Auto-Vac Model 660 rotary vacuum drum filter system, Serial #11667. The system is equipped with an approximately 6' diameter x 6' long stainless steel filter drum providing approximately 113 sq. ft. of filtration area. Actual drum dimensions are approximately 72" outside diameter x 75" long. The drum uses an automatic advancing knife discharge system for continuous removal of accumulated solids from the filter surface. Complete system includes receiver tank, pre-mix tank, 40 HP vacuum pump and control panel. Electrical requirements are 460 VAC, 3-phase and 120 VAC, 1-phase. Designed as an automatic self-cleaning filtration system for compatible water-based effluent streams, the Auto-Vac 660 may be suitable for industrial wastewater treatment, sludge dewatering, process-water clarification and continuous solid/liquid separation. Approximate filter drum skid dimensions are 118" wide x 152" long x 94" high. Approximate tank skid dimensions are 93" wide x 186" long x 112" high.
