What is important to the farmer is a manageable technology, robust over many years and which meets the requirements of the livestock regarding cost-benefit ratio and the correct and proper distribution of liquid manure.
BAUER slurry tankers have been a guarantee of durability and lasting value for decades. Their reliability and models adapted to the geographical conditions of use, give the Bauer slurry tankers their well-known image. A low centre of gravity in particular qualifies these tanker types for mountainous regions and also results in an incomparable trailing behaviour.

Our experienced construction engineers develop new components and equipment focusing on well proven technology. BAUER slurry tankers are drawn in full 3D on CAD design workstations, ensuring that spare parts are available even after many years. Test runs and load tests make sure that every prototype is ready for series production.
Your confidence is based on our experience.
The serial-hydraulically operated slurry gun provides an optimal swivelling range in horizontal and vertical direction. Horizontal swivelling is carried out through a sturdy rack-and-pinion technique. The nozzle can be cleaned easily via an HK coupling. The central arrangement allows a distribution angle close to the tanker on both sides.
In a special process, the single parts of the tanker (rings of steel) are beaded and later put together with hydraulic presses to obtain a perfectly round shape. Later on, the joints are automatically welded which ensures an optically perfect weld seam of high quality. The standard hot-dip galvanization according to DIN EN ISO 1461 ensures long-term corrosion protection. The high-gloss galvanization with the typical "zinc flower" gives our tankers an amazing appearance. In order to preserve the appearance over many years, all galvanized tankers are finished with a special passivation.
Wheel recesses or wheel boxes reduce the volume. Not at BAUER! Due to the in-house production of our tankers, the length of tanker is again enlarged approximately to the nominal volume. The advantages of a recess in the tanker are:
Depending on the tanker type, the tractor and application, the types of drawbars offer different advantages; therefore, we are offering the complete pallet:
An optional drawbar adjustment is available for all drawbars to adjust the tanker inclination or hitch height of different tractors. An additional extension as a drawbar suspension via nitrogen accumulators is available.
Big volume tankers require more road safety which is ensured by one or more anti-surge baffles, depending on the tanker size. Anti-surge baffles are a standard in all models from size 55 up.
The strength of the vacuum tanker is its insensitivity to foreign matters in the slurry. However, this requires easy access to the tank. For this reason, we manufacture a tanker lid which can be opened completely up to a tanker diameter of Ø1250mm and a recessed manhole from a tanker diameter of Ø1400mm. The manhole with Ø750mm combines the advantages of good accessibility and low effort with only a few screws to open. Easy maintenance.
Bauer vacuum tankers are provided with a double overpressure protection in standard execution. A sealed pressure relief valve with blow-off hose regulates the pressure and the spring-loaded dome lid provides double pressure protection in the tank.
Ball valves in the dome and in the siphon provide double safety against slurry entering the compressor. The under- and overpressure can be read from the glycerine manovacuumeter.
Thanks to the three switching positions of the BAUER combi unit (compressor - compressor and centrifugal pump - centrifugal pump), the combi tanker can also be used as a pumping station. The suction opening can be used as an additional cleaning opening.
