Prime 6000: The New Mobile Decanter from Slootsmid
Reading time: 2 minutes

Borculo, 14 October 2025 – Slootsmid Mesttechniek proudly presents the new Prime 6000. This mobile slurry separator has been fully developed and built in-house. The installation stands for maximum efficiency and reliability. The Prime 6000 combines performance, smart technology and future readiness in a single compact system.
Top-Class Separation Performance
At the heart of the Prime 6000 is a GEA Prime Decanter, one of the most advanced separation systems in its class. This decanter is specifically designed for high separation efficiency and stable operation, even when slurry composition and flow vary.
The drum is made of duplex stainless steel and features a Super-Deep Pond design, which allows a larger volume to be processed inside the drum. Combined with high G-force, this ensures maximum dewatering and a dry solid fraction.
The Summationdrive® system automatically regulates the bowl speed and continuously adjusts torque to match the load. As a result, the decanter always operates at maximum efficiency with minimal energy consumption (from 0.7 kWh/m³).
Thanks to this advanced technology, the Prime 6000 separates solid and liquid fractions with high precision. The result is optimal nutrient utilisation, a cleaner liquid fraction, and reliable operation under all conditions.
The GEA Prime decanter is the core of the Prime 6000, ensuring maximum separation capacity.
Fully Integrated Design
The installation is built in a sturdy, custom-made frame with twistlock connections, making transport and setup simple and efficient.
Thanks to the advanced exhaust gas after-treatment of the Stage V power unit, the system emits fewer emissions and meets strict environmental standards.
In addition, the Prime 6000 is equipped with:
-
NIR sensors: Measure the composition of the slurry in real time (e.g. dry matter, N, P, K) for precise process control.

-
Flow meter: Records the exact slurry feed volume to optimise process regulation.

-
Remote-controlled HMI: A clear and user-friendly interface to operate all functions.

-
Automatic discharge screw adjustment: Adjusts the screw angle automatically for flexible solid fraction discharge.

-
Mobile feed pump with cutter filter: Pumps slurry to the unit and prevents blockages by cutting coarse materials.

- Camera system: Provides real-time monitoring for control and safety.
Polymer Dosing System
The Prime 6000 also features a high-precision polymer dosing system. This system adds the exact amount of polymer to the slurry flow. This causes fine particles to form larger flocs, which can be separated more effectively by the decanter.
The result:
-
A dryer solid fraction
-
A clearer liquid fraction
-
Fewer blockages
-
A more stable and consistent process
The polymer dosing system ensures accurate polymer addition, maximising overall separation efficiency.
Built for the Future
The Prime 6000 is designed for practical, everyday use. It is quick to deploy, easy to operate and supported by smart automation for stable results under all conditions. The robust construction ensures the machine can withstand heavy-duty and intensive operation.
With the Prime 6000, Slootsmid demonstrates how craftsmanship and innovation come together. This slurry separator helps farmers and contractors work more efficiently, more precisely, and more sustainably.
