Operating principle of the DRS

How the Debris Removal System works

In many applications, heavy material is separated from liquid media in order to avoid damage and blockages to downstream system components such as pumps and valves, for example from stones or metal parts. The heavy material settles as usual in the calming zone. The piston of the DRS then push it towards the removal aperture while at the same time the passage to the RotaCut RCX / DebrisCatcher is closed. The medium included with the heavy material returns to the machine's working area via a bypass. In the next step, the heavy material is discharged by the piston with only about 15 l of medium. Everything takes place during operation, without the DebrisCatcher or RotaCut RCX having to be switched off or opened - as is usually the case. Compared to previous solutions, the work is completed in a fifth of the time. When combined with a control, this process can be performed automatically.
