Separation Plant ITE TSP500-2 (1x40ft Tank)

The ITE TSP500-2 is a compact separation plant and specially designed for processing of slurries and removal of drilled solids from the slurry circuit in tunneling, horizontal drilling or deep hole drilling applications.

The TSP500-2 is composed of one double deck vibration screening machine, two 4-panel vibration screening machines, four hydro-vacuum-cyclones, one 40’ process tank with integrated centrifugal feed pumps, control cabinets and accessories.

Adjustable discharge chutes, fold-away platforms and pluggable railing for safe working and good access provide a plug-and-play solution. Assembly time is therefore reduced to a minimum. Feeding of the shakers and cyclones is accomplished by an integrated fixed piping and wiring system in a minimal footprint.

Instead of a collection of equipment from various sources, the ITE TSP500-2 is a field-proven network of separation components specifically designed to function as a single unit. During each separation stage, a maximum of solid particles are removed from the slurry. The modular system guarantees continuous and fast advance rates, reducing downtimes to a minimum. The innovative screening technology combined with hydrocyclones constitutes a complete recycling concept, providing optimal removal of critical fine particles down to 45 microns and guaranteeing constant slurry properties.

The vibration screening machines can be equipped with a wide range of different ITE hookstrip and panel screens which are available from 4mm mesh width down to 45µm.
