Working Principle

Siphoning Cycle During the siphoning cycle, the vacuum opens the intake flapper to siphon the manure into the pumping tube.

Evacuation Cycle During the evacuation cycle, the pressure closes the intake flapper, opens the spring loaded discharge flapper and forces the manure into the evacuation line. At the end of the evacuation cycle, the spring closes the discharge flapper.
