PitMax+ is a high-performance manure pit treatment engineered to help dislodge accumulated solids, prevent bottom buildup, and improve manure consistency during agitation and pump-out.
Developed specifically for hog and cattle manure systems, PitMax+ uses ultra-negatively charged, long-chain molecules to attract positively charged solid particles from the bottom of the pit. Acting like a magnet, the treatment loosens settled material and helps keep it suspended throughout the manure.
Its molecular structure allows PitMax+ to remain in suspension while bringing additional solid particles with it. This helps operators achieve more efficient agitation, improved pump-out performance, and more uniform distribution of manure nutrients.
PitMax+ is water-soluble and biodegradable. It offers livestock operations a practical way to manage both existing solid accumulation and continued buildup when applied according to the recommended schedule and rates.
Ideal Applications
- Hog manure pits
- Cattle manure pits
- Manure pits with settled bottom solids
- Pits experiencing recurring solid buildup
- Livestock operations seeking more efficient agitation
- Manure systems requiring improved pump-out uniformity
- Operations seeking more consistent manure nutrient distribution
Recommended Application Rates
Hog Manure
- Low Rate: 2 GAL per 100,000 GAL of manure
- High Rate: 4 GAL per 100,000 GAL of manure
Cattle Manure
- Low Rate: 1.5 GAL per 100,000 GAL of manure
- High Rate: 3 GAL per 100,000 GAL of manure
Application Schedule
Apply 50% of the recommended rate when the manure pit is approximately 25–35% full. Apply another 25% when the pit reaches 50% capacity, followed by the remaining 25% approximately 30 days before pump-out.
For maximum performance, distribute PitMax+ equally throughout the pit during application. Always read and follow the complete product label for application, handling, storage, and disposal instructions.
Why Operations Choose PitMax+
Accumulated solids can interfere with agitation, reduce pump-out efficiency, and contribute to uneven manure consistency. PitMax+ addresses these challenges by lifting settled particles from the bottom and helping keep them suspended.
At the lower recommended rate, PitMax+ can help manage bottom buildup measuring less than 12 inches while preventing additional accumulation. At the higher recommended rate, it provides the same benefits while helping dislodge more than approximately 12 inches of solids annually.
For hog and cattle operations that need better agitation and more uniform manure during pump-out, PitMax+ delivers targeted solids-management performance throughout the manure pit.
Dislodge settled solids. Improve manure uniformity. Make agitation and pump-out more efficient.
