ABSTRACT:
A fluid baffle positionable between a fluid sprayer and sump of a chemical processing machine, a preferred embodiment of which comprises an insert positionable within an existing catch tank or sump. A solution or suspension emanating from the sprayer and rolling down the sloped surface of the baffle will enter the sump through openings formed within the lower edge of the sloped surface thereby entering the sump at a distal location from the pumps used to transfer fluid from the sump back to the sprayers. The sump itself includes generally rounded corners so as to eliminate the formation of fluid retentive dead zones therein. The utilization of the baffle in conjunction with the rounded corners of the sump provides complete and efficient recirculation of the fluid within the processing machine.
