The grinder can be used in place of bar rakes and screens as well as drum screen grinders, the company says.

The Max-Flow system contains two or more Annihilator grinders mounted side-by-side in a stainless steel retrieval frame in the headworks of a waste treatment system. They can be installed in an in-line or a staggered or offset design to accommodate a variety of channel widths.

The frame includes guide rails to permit the independent retrieval of each grinder and steel panels can also be inserted in place of a grinder to divert the flow to the remaining grinders during maintenance, eliminating the need for costly diversion or by-pass channels. Stainless steel or FRP control panels can be installed to control the operation of each grinder independently using manual or automated control systems.
