The new 10K Series Muffin Monster from JWC Environmental combines waste grinding capabilities in a compact, easy-to-install unit that is suited to a variety of wastewater grinding applications. This newest addition to the family of Muffin Monster grinders is available in pipeline, open channel and pump station configurations that pack big power in a small package.
The 10K Series Muffin Monster incorporates the same benefits of the larger Monster units, including low-speed operation with high torque and less interrupts. The dual-shaft design actively pulls material into and through the hardened steel cutters so the grinder can handle a wider variety of debris compared to single-shaft macerators and grinders.
To shred sewer-clogging solids commonly found in waste streams, the 10K Series comes with both top and bottom bearings that prevent shaft deflection. This design feature not found in lesser grinders or macerators ensures the longevity of the product and reduces maintenance costs, downtime and operator inconvenience. The smaller particles produced by the 10K units also pass more easily through downstream pumps and pipelines.
The 10K open channel Muffin Monster is an ideal, low-cost solution for smaller wet wells located in facilities such as office buildings, apartment complexes, resorts, retail centers and package treatment plants. Custom stainless steel support frames allow for installation directly at the inlet sewage line on the wall of a pump station or into an existing channel.
The 10K in-line Muffin Monster is ideally suited for protecting sludge pumps, sentive centrifuges, samplers or heat exchangers in resource recovery facilities. The 2- or 3-hp (1.5- or 2.2-kW) motors provide all the cutting force required to shred tough solids. Its dual-shafted grinding technology will not get clogged by wipes or other non-dispersables as is common with high-speed macerators. For added versatility and performance, the 10K Series units are available with 7-, 11- or 13-tooth cutter combinations to fit individual customer applications.
