ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for distributing sludge-type matter from a supply line into several distributor conduits. The flow of matter from the supply line is directed through a manifold conduit rotatably coupled about an axis of rotation on one end to the supply line and coupled on the other end to a rotating plate, the rotating plate being rotatable about the axis of rotation relative to a distributor plate, the distributor plate including one end of each of the distributor conduits coupled thereto and, thus, adapted to be coupled in fluid communication with the manifold conduit. The rotating plate is rotated relative to the distributor plate to align the manifold conduit with a respective distributor conduit and, in turn, to direct the flow of matter therethrough. The fluid pressure on the output side of the delivery conduit receiving the flow of matter therethough is measured and the rotating plate is rotated to align the manifold conduit to another distributor conduit upon the fluid pressure exceeding a predetermined value.
