Distributor Dish / Hose / Intake Plate
The distributor dish, structural members, structural
fasteners, and mounting brackets are constructed
of stainless steel.
Distributor Dish
- Near-laminar flow is achieved
by the GridBee due to its uniquely designed
distributor dish. The impeller rotates while sitting
within the lower half of the distributor dish. The
gentle water movement strengthens the induced
flow effect (water movement occuring between the
lower water layer entering the machine and the
upper water layer leaving the dish).
The top lip of the distributor dish is set
approximately 3/4- inch to 1-inch (2.0cm - 2.5 cm)
below the surface of the water to achieve best
flow results. The distributor dish depth is set at
the factory and should not need adjustment after
deployment.
Hose / Intake
- The hose extends from below the
dish down to the floor of the reservoir. The intake
level is generally set just above the floor of the
reservoir. As the water level fluctuates, the intake
remains at a fixed level above the reservoir bottom
as the extra hose lays on the bottom. The intake
draws water horizontally into the hose.
The contact between the intake and the floor
prevents the machine from rotating or moving out
of place. The machine naturally has a very small
torque due to impeller rotation.
