McLanahan - Agricultural Sand Dewatering Screens Brochure

McLanahan Sand Dewatering Screens are designed for dairy producers looking to remove excess water from recycled sand bedding. Recycled sand from a separation system will contain about 20% moisture, which is too wet for freestall bedding. Stacking the sand into piles and conditioning it for several weeks or months allows the water to leach out, but that inventoried sand can tie up cash. With a Sand Dewatering Screen, the water is immediately reduced, yielding a sand that is drip-free and requires minimal conditioning. Dewatering the sand leads to a faster turnaround time while also reducing bacterial growth and improving overall freestall bed quality.
