Issues with our Sand-Manure Separator (27)

We ran into an issue with our ‪@McLanahanCorporation‬ Sand-Manure Separator in the middle of the night this past weekend. Thankfully, the issue was resolved in a timely matter allowing the system to operate properly again without much delay. I also brought the boys to the farm to enjoy the nice weather while Taryn was at work.
I previously made a video explaining how our separator works. If you'd like to watch that, here is the link: • Sand-Manure Separator ...
If you have any questions about this week's video, leave them in the comments, and I will post a Q&A video on Sunday. Thanks for watching!

Ian is so cute,he surely will remember these years! Watching “ Farming,Fixing,and Fabricating “ Andy is constantly repairing equipment that comes in contact with the sand. Never ending battle!

[@pietvanbedaf-nddairyfarmer9047]

Dealing with sand in manure is definitely a challenge!

Piet,
Thanks for another great video ! A good practice for operating installed spare pumps is to switch pumps every few days. This keeps both pumps exercised and allows the day crew to address any issues related to the startup of the spare pump.

[@pietvanbedaf-nddairyfarmer9047]

We do run the spare pumps on occasion, but this is something we definitely should be doing more often!

Just wondering if you have any plans to make your Sand-Manure System a little more challenging by adding a Methane Digester System?

[@pietvanbedaf-nddairyfarmer9047]

We've looked into this, but don't have any plans for a methane digester at the moment.

Manure handling is like water and feed.
Can't wait just fix it.This time you got away easy 😅

[@pietvanbedaf-nddairyfarmer9047]

Very true, it's not always that easy!

[@huwe2007]

System looks heavy on electric, Has the price of electric increased like it has in the uk

[@pietvanbedaf-nddairyfarmer9047]

It has increased some, but not a considerable amount yet.
