The Aeromixer-NT system

---

 
Low-rate intermittent slurry aeration is considered  to be one of the best ways of keeping slurry in an  optimum condition for spreading without the need for  extensive mixing with traditional over-the-top mixers  and side stirrers, which can be very costly in man-hours  and diesel. 

Low-rate intermittent aeration enables nitrogen to be  retained in soluble form within the slurry thus reducing  loss of nitrogen as ammonia emissions. If spread  correctly this may help to reduce the requirement for  bought-in fertilisers – which is not only good for the  environment but also for your pocket! 

So why get agitated over slurry agitation? 

As the nutrients within aerated slurry are uniformly  distributed it is much easier to calculate application  rates accurately as each load spread is the same. 

Many farmers have reported quicker re-growth of  grass and increased palatability after spreading  with slurry which has been conditioned by using the  Ameram Aeromixer. It is also kinder to beneficial soil life  such as earthworms. 

We know that slurry mixing is a difficult process,  however, using the Ameram Aeromixer makes it an  easier job! 

The compressor is activated by the digital clock within the control panel. Air is fed into the primary rotary  valve which feeds the 4, 6, 8 or 10-port rotary distribution valves, which are fixed to the top of the tank or to the walls above a cellar. 

The rotary distribution valves are connected, by polyethylene pipe, to the 2 or 4 outlet manifolds which are securely  fixed to the floor with stainless steel fixings. Only 1 port, in the whole system, is ‘live’ at any time, causing air to be  jetted out at 2 or 4 specific points. The pneumatic rotary distribution valve then revolves to open the next port. 

The system operates during the night for the amount of time required dependent upon the size of tank to be mixed. Our design is the result of experience.
