USED ALAR ENGINEERING 340

Manufacturer Information:

Brand: Alar

Model: Auto-Vac 340

Material: 304 Stainless Steel Drum

Serial Number: 13121

Description:
The Alar Auto-Vac Model 340 Rotary Vacuum Filter System is a high-efficiency liquid-solid separation system, designed for industrial filtration, wastewater treatment, and sludge dewatering applications.
This system features a 36” diameter x 48” face 304 stainless steel drum, providing 37.7 square feet of nominal filtering area. The drum is driven by a 0.4 HP, 1750 RPM gear motor (288:1 ratio), ensuring steady vacuum filtration performance.
The dry solids discharge system includes an adjustable knife for precise material removal. The bottom holding tank is equipped with a rake agitator, driven by a 0.33 HP motor (1140 RPM), ensuring consistent material flow.
Additionally, the system includes a receiver tank with a pump, powered by a 1.5 HP motor (3450 RPM) for efficient liquid handling. The system is controlled via an Allen Bradley SLC PLC, allowing for automated operation and monitoring.
All components are unitized on a common carbon steel frame, ensuring stability and easy integration into industrial processes.
