Macerators
The grinder effectively fragments effluents into fine particles using a rotating stainless steel blade that is both durable and corrosion-resistant. This mechanical process combines shredding and discharge of blackwater, ensuring smooth flow through the pipes to avoid blockage risks.
Channel impellers
Efficiently handle liquids with solids, minimising clogs and ensuring reliable pump performance in wastewater and sludge applications.
Grinders
Designed for more complex waste (wipes, tampons, etc.), the Pro X K2 macerating wheel fragments solids without disrupting the wastewater flow. An ideal solution for modern systems, it ensures efficient handling of unexpected waste and prevents blockages.
Vortex
Equipped with vortex technology, the KX V6 impeller provides a 50 mm free passage, generating a powerful rotational flow to discharge solids without direct contact with the blades. Designed for the most demanding applications, it ensures durable performance while reducing maintenance needs.
Macerators
A macerator blade is an essential component in waste management systems, designed to finely cut and shred solid materials within wastewater. It operates through a straightforward yet effective mechanical process. When waste enters the macerator, the stainless steel blades—engineered for durability and corrosion resistance—rotate continuously, reducing solids like toilet paper and other debris into fine particles. This dual-action process enables the smooth discharge of wastewater and helps prevent clogs, ensuring efficient flow throughout the sanitation system. The shredding and wastewater pumping functions occur along the same axis, facilitating streamlined waste processing and transport.
The multi-cutter impeller enables grinding through tearing. This technology is featured in the Sanicompact range and functions as a turbine. The multi-cutter impeller operates using several blades arranged in a ring on a rotating disc. These blades perform grinding by tearing, fragmenting solid materials in the effluent into very fine particles. This action is particularly effective for processing toilet paper and other debris, preventing clogs in the pipes. In the Sanicompact range, the multi-cutter impeller also acts as a turbine, generating a dynamic flow that optimises the drainage of wastewater while ensuring uniform grinding. This system guarantees maximum efficiency while minimising maintenance needs, thanks to the robustness of the blades and their wear resistance.
Grinders
The Grinder Pro XK2 is designed to handle occasional discharges of toilet wipes, sanitary pads, tampons, or condoms. The Grinder Pro XK2 utilises advanced grinding technology to shred or tear apart solid materials that may be present in the effluent. With its robust design, it can effectively process challenging waste, such as toilet wipes, sanitary pads, tampons, or condoms, without compromising the system's fluidity.
When waste enters the system, the grinder rotates, applying powerful mechanical force to fragment the materials into small particles. This process ensures efficient waste removal while preventing blockages and maintaining continuous flow in the pipes. Suitable for occasional discharges, this solution minimises the risk of clogs in modern sewage systems.
A grinder is a component used in wastewater pumps, equipped with integrated blades that shred solids present in the liquid before pumping. This helps prevent clogs and ensures smooth operation, even with difficult-to-manage materials.
The Pro XK3 Blade features sharp blades that function as an integrated grinder. When activated, these blades break down solids in the effluent before pumping, turning solid materials into small particles to ensure uninterrupted flow. This process is essential for preventing blockages in pipes and guaranteeing smooth drainage of wastewater, even in the presence of complex materials like fibres and wipes.
The Grinder technology of the Pro XK3 is designed for optimal performance in environments where solid waste management is crucial, providing both efficiency and robustness.
Channel impellers
Single Channel Impeller is a type of component used in hydraulic pumps, designed with a single wide channel to allow the passage of liquids containing large solids or fibres. It is particularly effective in preventing clogs when pumping wastewater or sludge.
The Single Channel Impeller features a single wide channel that permits the flow of liquids loaded with large solids or fibres. This open channel reduces the risk of obstruction, even when the effluent contains bulky materials. Ideal for wastewater or sludge pumping applications, this design ensures smooth transfer while maintaining pump performance over the long term.
Thanks to its capacity to handle significant flow rates, the Single Channel Impeller is highly valued in systems where clog prevention is essential.
A two-channel impeller is a type of component used in hydraulic pumps, designed with two channels to allow the passage of liquids containing solid particles. It is particularly effective for pumping wastewater or sludge, reducing the risk of clogs.
The two-channel impeller draws in and expels grey water and particles without tearing them apart, allowing for a free passage of 50 mm for maximum performance.
The two-channel impeller is specifically designed to draw in and expel grey water as well as solid particles without dilaceration. Its two-channel design ensures a smooth and continuous flow of effluents, even in the presence of solid waste.
Unlike grinding systems, the two-channel impeller focuses on the direct transport of particles, avoiding obstructions and maintaining maximum efficiency in applications where dilaceration is not necessary. This technology offers a reliable and durable solution for optimal performance, particularly in industrial environments where large volumes of fluids must be processed.
A Multi Channel Impeller is a component used in hydraulic pumps, equipped with several channels to allow the passage of liquids, often loaded with small solid particles. This design improves pump efficiency by distributing the liquid flow through multiple passages, which reduces the risk of clogging and increases pumping capacity.
The Multi Channel Impeller features several channels, each designed to facilitate the passage of liquids containing small solid particles. By distributing the flow through multiple passages, this design reduces the risk of clogging and enhances the overall efficiency of the system. Each channel allows for controlled movement of the effluents, ensuring optimal management of wastewater even under demanding conditions.
This multi-channel configuration increases pumping capacity and guarantees stable performance, even when the effluents are laden with particles.
Vortex
A vortex is a type of turbine used in hydraulic systems, designed to generate energy by harnessing the force of a rotating water flow, creating a vortex effect. The KX V6 Vortex from SFA also features vortex technology. This technology allows for a free passage of 50 mm, meeting the demands of the most challenging applications.
The KX V6 Vortex incorporates vortex technology, ensuring a free passage of 50 mm, which enables the handling of effluents and solid waste without obstructions. When activated, it generates a powerful vortex effect that carries solid materials in a rotating flow, facilitating their evacuation without direct contact with the pump blades.
This innovative design allows the Vortex to meet the needs of the most demanding applications, particularly in environments where solid or bulky objects may be present in wastewater. The technology not only ensures sustained performance but also minimises the risk of clogs and reduces maintenance requirements.
