High-Efficiency Screw Press Separation Technology
Its robust construction ensures structural stability, while the stainless steel screen basket provides corrosion resistance and consistent filtration performance. The adjustable pressure system allows optimisation of dry matter output depending on substrate characteristics.
With adjustable screen sizes and counterweight pressure control, the separator adapts to varying substrate compositions and dry matter levels.
This model is ideal for operations requiring [compact footprint / mid-size capacity / high throughput industrial separation – adjust per model].
Slurry Separation Performance for Farms & Biogas Plants
The Separator FAN PSS 5.2-520 is engineered for professional slurry management, manure separation and digestate processing. It delivers high separation efficiency while reducing storage volume, transport costs and nutrient losses.
Key benefits include:
• High dry matter output Up to 36% TS
• Reduced slurry storage volume
• Improved nutrient management
• Reliable continuous operation
• Low maintenance mechanical design
• Long service life under agricultural conditions
Applications in Agriculture, Biogas & Industrial Processing
The Separator FAN PSS 5.2-520 is suitable for:
• Dairy farms
• Pig farms
• Agricultural slurry systems
• Biogas plants
• Digestate separation
• Industrial organic waste processing
• Municipal sludge pre-treatment
How the FAN Screw Press Separator Works
The slurry is fed into the stainless steel screen basket where a precision screw press gradually compresses the material. Liquid fraction passes through the screen slots, while solids are transported forward and discharged under controlled pressure.
The adjustable counterweight system allows optimisation of the separation pressure, ensuring maximum dry matter output depending on substrate composition.

Does this machine really pay for itself? (ROI)
Think about your current costs: How much do you spend on straw/sawdust for bedding? How much does it cost to transport liquid manure?
By using ProTecLin, you produce your own free bedding ("Green Bedding") and reduce your slurry volume by up to 30%. For many farmers, the machine pays for itself just by the savings on bedding material alone.
Is it complicated to install on my farm?
Not at all. We designed the ProTecLin as a "Plug & Play" unit. It fits easily into existing manure pits or biogas setups. Once installed, it runs automatically. You don't need to be an engineer to operate it – it’s built for daily farm use.
What happens if I need a spare part urgently?
This is the ProTesCa advantage. Unlike general dealers, we produce and stock the spare parts (Screens, Augers) ourselves. If you need a replacement screen basket during a busy season, we ship it immediately from our German warehouse. You won't be left waiting.
