I. General Description
This portable gold trommel plant is self contained, and with its 1-5t/h capacity, it is ideal for testing gold values or for small production operations. The unique water supply and reclamation unit allows operation where water is not available. A spray bar with its own adjustable water valve goes the length of the trommel. Next, the material approaches the 8mm holes where anything under 8mm gets washed down onto the oscillating sluice, and larger material works its way to the end of the trommel. A nugget trap will catch any heavies and the lighter material will go out the tail cone to the rock chute and discard tray. The oscillating sluice has settings for stationary, short, and long strokes. The removable sluice has artificial turf, riffles mounted on expanded metal and toggles to secure it onto the place. Any light material that gets washed off the sluice goes into the de
-watering screw.The simplicity of this equipment makes it the leader in the field of small portable
placer equipment. Industrially built, it is easy to maintain and powered by either an electric or diesel engine which is easily removable by removing the snap pin and sliding out the motor mount. It was designed that way so you can easily take it with you at the end of the day to cut down on theft. On engine runs both the gear reducer and water pump using a B-width belt. This trommel plant is a positive chain drive.
