Bucket Wheels
PHOENIX/KISA Bucket Wheels capture, de-slime and dewater sand, frac sand, waste fines, specialty sands and gravel from dredging and sand processing operations. Bucket wheels are designed for high solids recoveries with exceptionally low power requirements, even from dilute slurries such as dredge spoil. The dewatered solids are readily conveyable and stackable. Aggregate wash plants and industrial applications with granular slurries can obtain up to 1700+ STPH high solid handling capacity with PHOENIX/KISA bucket wheels.
Depending on the wheel diameter, the Bucket Wheel is equipped with multiple buckets. The buckets feature a slotted elastomer sieve mat design which provides consistent drainage surface area along with siphon pipes which further enhance the Bucket Wheel’s dewatering effect.
The wheel diameter and bucket width determining the solids handling capacity, while the surface area of the slurry bath defines the hydraulic capacity. Bucket Wheels are available in more than a dozen sizes including standard and extended bath models.

Dewatering Bucket Wheels
Features & Benefits
- Unique dewatering design provides high solids capacity of +1700 STPH, sand recovery up to 99.5%, and handles multiple product streams simultaneously
- Load-sensitive automation adjusts to varying feed rates
- 50 HP drive provides low power consumption for 1000 STPH
- Handles large surges in feed making it ideal for dredging
- Large sumps for high hydraulic capacity
- Add-on auxiliary feed box liberates surface clay
Feed Box
Material is feed into the feed box.
Buckets
Buckets lift and slowly rotate the material.
Sieve Mats
Water and granular solids material pass through the sieve mats and settle in the bath.
Discharge Chute
Material dumps into discharge chute.
Overflow
Waste fines flow upward in the bath to the overflow launder.
