New Low Power Centre Drive for Rotating Distributors

Ham Baker’s Spares Maintenance & Service division has unveiled a new low-power, low carbon footprint Centre Drive System for rotating distributors.

Achieving greatly reduced running costs due to its small motor, the innovative lightweight design of the Ham Baker Centre Drive System is easy to install and significantly improves manual handling.

Suitable for continuous operation of new or existing distributors of any make, the new System’s large drive ring provides more torque for control rotation, whist its variable speed also gives enhanced process control and a variable wetting rate. In addition, the flushing rate successfully reduces biomass, improves oxygen transfer and suppresses flies. For enhanced flexibility of flushing time, and to maximise the biological process of the distributor, the rotation speed can be altered by a variable timer.

With no hydraulic parts, this new Centre Drive System is much easier to maintain that conventional units. The durable design with reduced side loads produces a prolonged asset life, with Ham Baker able to provide full technical support and maintenance.
