Jet Suction Dredger
A jet suction dredger is a high-efficiency, environmentally-friendly vacuum dredging solution that uses powerful water jets to break down sediment and rocks in waterways. This method is less invasive compared to mechanical cutters or buckets, making jet suction dredgers ideal for sensitive aquatic environments. The loosened material is sucked up through a suction pipe and transported to a designated storage area, ensuring efficient and safe sediment removal.
Applications of Jet Suction Dredgers
Our jet suction dredgers are designed for optimal performance in shallow waters such as rivers, lakes, channels, and docks. They are ideal for cleaning:
- Reservoirs and sand stocks
- Docks, piers, and harbors
- Soft sand layers and other similar sedimentary environments
How Does a Jet Suction Dredger Work?
The jet suction dredger operates by directing a high-pressure water jet at the sediment layer, breaking it down efficiently. Then, the powerful sand pump removes the loosened material, transferring it through the discharge pipeline to a designated on-land area. This system can be customized to meet specific needs regarding dredging depth, capacity, and discharge distance, making it versatile for various dredging requirements.
Technical Specifications
Our jet suction dredgers are built with a main diesel engine, which powers the dredge pump and hydraulic system. An auxiliary diesel engine supplies power for the high-pressure water pump, ensuring efficient sediment excavation and discharge. Key specifications include:
- Dredging Depth: Up to 15 meters for effective sediment removal in various water depths
- Size Range: Available in sizes from 6 inches to 20 inches, depending on the required dredging capacity
- Pump System: Equipped with high-quality Warman Dredge pumps, based on WEIR production and pipeline analysis sheets
