Description
If you are looking for one of the most advanced and capable gold dredges on the market, the Keene 6″ Super Max Sump Dredge is your answer. Designed for professional use, this powerhouse combines a dual Yanmar diesel setup with high-volume pumps, an innovative sump system, and a 263 compressor to support deep water diving and ultra-fine gold recovery.
Why Choose the Super Max Sump System?
The sump system is what sets this dredge apart. Unlike standard designs, the Super Max uses a multi-stage slurry process that pulls ultra-fine gold from the dredge’s tailings. This allows even gold particles smaller than 500 mesh to be captured efficiently. As a result, you recover more gold from each run.
Additionally, this sump recirculates classified material through the rear sluices, creating a controlled turbulence that enhances fine gold retention. This system dramatically reduces gold loss and boosts productivity with every cleanup.
Dual Yanmar Diesel Engines and PHP500 Pumps
To power this monster, Keene equipped it with two 10 HP Yanmar diesel engines. These engines drive the PHP500 pumps, which generate impressive water volume and pressure. This combination provides excellent suction for deep dredging, while offering the reliability diesel engines are known for—especially in remote areas.
Compressor and Diver Support
Serious prospectors often dive while dredging. The 263 air compressor provides enough capacity to support two divers simultaneously. Whether you are working 10 feet deep or pushing 35 feet, this dredge offers the airflow and depth capability needed to work long hours safely and comfortably.
Durability and Portability in One Frame
This dredge is built with a reinforced tubular steel frame. Lightweight and strong, the frame supports the massive 8-foot sluice box and high-capacity sump system. The modular design allows for easier transport in pieces, even to remote claims with difficult access.
