Suction Pipe Clarifiers are designed to provide quick and uniform removal of return-activated sludge (RAS) by utilizing collection pipes located at multiple points along each arm. Suction is generated by a differential head from the partially submerged well located at the center of the clarifier.

Each suction pipe is equipped with a return flow valve that controls the rate of sludge return. By rotating into the center sludge well, the pipe clarifier ensures that all sludge exits through a vertical steel pipe located at the center.

Each suction pipe clarifier is customized to your needs as the size and quality of pipes are selected according to your RAS flow rates.
Built to minimize “short-circuiting” which reduces costly downtime.
Easy to change out sludge seals and visual indications of functionality ensure that maintenance and upkeep are minimized on the operators.
