• Slurry is a mixture of rockdust and water• When mixed, slurry can be compared to a runny

mixture of cement.• This mixture is sprayed onto the roof, ribs and

floor through nozzles.• Spraying can be done manually through a single

wand similar to a pressure washer.• Entry dusting is achieved through a series of

nozzles. As the operator trams the entire entry is coated.

• NO AIRBORNE DUST

• DUST IN THE INTAKE WITH MEN INBY

• MORE COVERAGE WITH LESS DUST

• ADHERES TO THE TOP AND RIBS BETTER THAN DRY DUST

• LONGER LASTING, GO LONGER BETWEEN DUSTING

• EASY MIXING AND QUICK CLEANUP

Page 4: Wet Dusting

• One 50# bag of dust requires approximately 2.8 gallons of water

• A 50Lb. bag of dust will make 10 gallon of slurry

• Each gallon of slurry will cover roughly 50 square feet

NOTE: MIXTURES

Example:

Page 6: Wet Dusting

• FOR APPLYING SLURRY OR SEALANT COMPOUND• MOUNTS TO BOLTERS, SCOOPS, MINERS OR OTHER EQUIPMENT• UTILIZES A PROGRESSIVE CAVITY PUMP (NOT A PISTON PUMP)• REQUIRES 5 GPM @ 1200 PSI• DISTRIBUTES 3-5 GPM @ 400 PSI PUMP DISCHARGE PRESSURE• HOPPER CAPACITY 26 GALLONS, PROVIDES 1300 SQ. FT. OF SLURRY COVERAGE• MIXING IS ACHIEVED BY RECIRCULATING THE HOPPER MATERIAL• 64” LONG, 36” WIDE, 26” HIGH

Page 7: Wet Dusting

• 250 GALLON SLURRY CAPCITY, SLIDES IN SCOOP BUCKET• P.T.O. OPERATED, 12 G.P.M. AT 1500 PSI REQUIRED• 25 BAGS OF DUST, 70 GALLONS OF WATER• 12,500 SQ. FT. COVERAGE• DISCHARGE RATE 6-12 G.P.M.• OPTIONAL 215 GAL. WATER TANK SHOWN, STORES ENOUGH WATER FOR THREE EXTRA BATCHES OF SLURRY

Page 8: Wet Dusting

• FILL TANK WITH WATER UP TO THE LEVEL INDICATOR (APP. 70 GAL.)

• TURN ON HYDRAULIC MIXERS• ADD 25 BAGS OF DUST THROUGH THE METAL

GRATING

Page 9: Wet Dusting

• Hydraulic mixers in the tank mix the rockdust and water into a slurry

Page 10: Wet Dusting

•THE SLURRY CAN NOW BE SPRAYED ONTO THE ROOF AND RIBS THROUGH A WAND

Page 11: Wet Dusting

• Empty the machine of slurry

• Add clean water to hopper until mixers are covered

• Start the machine and spray until clear water is discharged from the nozzle

• Turn machine off and store
