An optional disitegrator tool agitates and breaks
up large solids to prevent suction blockage.
The tool is removable for stringy solids.
Solids are chopped by the cupped and sharpened
impeller blades turning across the cutter bar,
creating a smooth "slicing" effect. The conditioned
slurry is easily pumped through the pump and
piping system without plugging.
Stray solids are trapped in the mechanical seal
area are shredded and removed by the impeller
vanes turning against the upper cutter.
Vaughan's unique cartridge style mechanical seal
handles the toughest slurries, outperforming
standard single-spring seals by reducing problems
associated with wrapping or abrasion.
The nut cuts stringy materials that can tend to
wrap at the pump inlet.
