Silt-Bot Mini Dredge

Efficient and Versatile Dredging Solution

The DAE Pumps Silt-Bot Mini Dredge offers an advanced, efficient solution for removing silt and sediment from various water bodies, including lagoons, basins, ponds, and small lakes. Functioning similarly to a pool-cleaning robot, the Silt-Bot glides along the bottom, effortlessly clearing debris and sediment. Equipped with powerful, non-clogging pumps, it is designed to meet the specific needs of multiple industries. Whether your project demands heavy-duty performance or lighter tasks, the Silt-Bot delivers. It features the patented EDDY pump, capable of handling up to 70% solids for heavy applications, and a DAE pump, a low-solids pump designed for lighter jobs that manage up to 30% solids. This versatility allows the Silt-Bot to efficiently remove silt, sediments, and slurry at an impressive rate of 125 to 150 cubic yards per hour.
