Model
1200 Side-Mounted Pump
Complementing the design of the Slurrystore structure, the Agitation
System 1200 performs your choice of three valuable functions: 1)
pump slurry back into the structure for center agitation 2) pump
to the over-the-top agitation unit 3) or pump to the fill pipe for
spreader loading.
The Agitation System 1200 features a rugged PTO-driven side-mount
pump offering two options of five-vane impeller, with galvanized
piping and pump components for longer life. These powerful pumps
are built with a durable cast iron housing, and seal housing with
cast ribs for added strength. The drain port is easily accessible
for convenient winterization. An optional slurry valve switching
and floor agitation system further customizes the Agitation System
1200 to take on your specific manure management challenges. |

Patented
Deluxe Over-the-top Agitator
Two heavy duty cast swivel joints with chromium alloy steel ball
bearings provide complete adjustment flexibility. The first swivel
joint provides side-to-side adjustment while the second allows up
and down adjustment of the slurry discharge nozzle. You can aim
the discharge to almost any point. |

Bottom
Center Agitator
This patented floor mounted center agitation nozzle recirculates and
agitates the slurry into a homogeneous mixture. A control rod located
outside the structure allows you to rotate the nozzle 360 degrees
so that its jet agitation power can be directed anywhere along the
floor of the structure. The tapered-nozzle design increases liquid
velocity. The control rod housing is completely encased in concrete.
There is a seal at the outside wall in addition to the primary seal
inside the structure to help reduce the risk of unwanted leaks. The
nozzle rotation drive mechanism is a simple pinion gear made from
cast iron making it tough and corrosion resistant. |

Heavy
Duty Web Truss
Wind Stiffeners
Sidewall stiffeners,made from galvanized web trussing, provide resistance
to sidewall buckling from strong winds. |

S-Tube
Riser
A time-saving
addition to an existing or new structure, the S-Tube Riser raises
the side-mounted pump 32". This allows you to perform all slurry agitation
at ground level instead of from a pit. Also, without a pit, the amount
of concrete required to install a Slurrystore structure may be reduced
by as much as eight yards. The S-Tube Riser includes a 24" offset
crank so you can operate the center agitation nozzle at ground level.
Made of heavy gauge steel, then hot-dip galvanized, the S-Tube Risers
can stand up to the abuses of inclement weather. |

Patented
Cathodic Protection
System Magnesium
bars are anchored to the concrete floor and connected to sidewall
foundation sheets, to the concrete reinforcing steel, and to the agitation
system steel components. The magnesium bars are slowly sacrificed
in order to protect the steel components that are in contact with
the slurry from corrosion. |

Glass-Fused-To-Steel
Construction
High strength
steel sheets are coated on both sides with a layer of liquid glass.
The glass is fused into the surface of the steel and provides a coating
that is highly corrosion resistant. The steel's strength is combined
with the durability of glass. Plastic-encapsulated bolts and special
sealant in the joints add further protection. |

Improved
Foundation Starter Sheet Design Bolt Line Pattern has a minimum of 2 parallel vertical holes for added strength. Increased
width of the sealing surface between the bolt lines creates a better
seal. Overall structure roundness is measured to within + or - 1/8".
Bentonite
Seal Strip
The bentonite
seal strip is installed below the primary sealing strip. When exposed
to liquid the bentonite strip can swell 6 to 8 times its original
shape. This creates a positive barrier to liquid flow between the
foundation starter sheet and the concrete floor, thus providing
a positive containment system. |

Patented
Foundation Leveling System
This system permits
the installer to leave nothing to chance. Sturdy, precision controls
allow vertical adjustments to within + or - 1/16". This tool helps
make the structure round and reduces the chance of "flat spots." |
