The Dredge Sled is built for efficiently removing sediment from narrow bodies of water, lagoons, lakes, or settling ponds. This dredge system is also commonly used for desludging projects such as digester or settling tank cleanouts. The Dredge Sled System is most often used to dredge bodies of water containing 20,000 square meters or less. The dredge pump can also be equipped with an optional high pressure water jetting ring to help break up consolidated material, allowing you to pump more solids.
The equipment is ideal for dredging lagoon sizes of 330 ft (100m) squared to 660 ft (200m) squared. Roughly 1.5 to 4 acres and up to about 16 feet (5m) deep. 5,000 to 20,000 Cy3 of material. Dimensions are rough guidance, call with questions.
