DAF Corp. Dissolved Air Flotation Circular Clarifier Sizes
DAF FC Maximizers are suitable for removal of solids down to 100 ppm. Performance is guaranteed provided DAF Maximizers
are operated in accordance with DAF Corporation instructions.
Factors that contribute to the efficiency and economics of the Maximizer include:
• Rapid Rising Velocity - reduces the process time to three minutes or less compared to other clarifiers with water
retention times of 15 to 30 minutes.
• Water Depth - Maximizer tank water is only 15 to 18 inches deep. Because of this, only 150 pounds per square foot
of floor support is needed and only half the floor space is necessary compared to a rectangular dissolved air flotation
clarifier.
Due to the rapid rising velocity and the shallow water depth, the DAF Maximizer clarifies the same volume of water in
half or less of the floor space. Furthermore, the DAF Maximizer FC clarifies the same quantity of water in 3 minutes
versus 15 minutes required by many conventional dissolved air flotation clarifiers.
