MODULAR SLUICE BOX OPTIONS:
- Each sluice is CNC slotted from the start to accommodate a range of accessories.
- Your flare can be removed to accommodate a header box, the walls have hole placements for self supportive fully adjustable leg kit.
- There are options for the header box as well, you can remove the rear baffle and add a header flare kit which opens up your feed area and allows for a spray bar conversion.
- Why convert to a spray bar?
- When converting from a River Sluice to a Power Sluice you have added water so you are no longer relying on sufficient flow in a stream.
- You can take this one step further and add pressure to the feeder box which aids in liberating gold from dirt and gravels.
- With better cleaning results in better recovery especially when working clay's.
- There's also an option to add a sluice classification tray which if you've added all the above accessories you have converted your river sluice into a fully functional forward classifying highbanker.
- The tray also works in a river sluice without a head box allowing you to better work your material before exposing to the recovery system.
BILGE PUMP:
- Running pumps to deliver water you want to run a minimum 3000 GPH for the 8".
- The 4700 GPH Bilge Pump can be necked down to 32mm to restrict flow.
