A sand jet pipe system can be fitted along the bottom of the vessel running up to a sand retention baffle or the weir plate. High-pressure water will fluidize any solids settled in the base of the vessel so that they can be flushed away into the sand removal nozzles. A sand pan to prevent clogging and blockage of the removal nozzles is also usually supplied.
