Sterling systems create vacuum for conveying pelletized or granular material in a central material handling system.

A typical use is an in-plant distribution system for plastic processing plants.

1-2 Necessary Documents

The documents below are necessary for proper installation, operation and maintenance of conveying systems. You can obtain additional copies from the Service Department at Sterling. Make sure that the appropriate personnel are familiar with these documents:

This product manual.

The Sterling SPD/SPC Series product manual.

Electrical schematic and connection diagrams.

Blower and electric motor information sheets.

Operation and Installation manuals for all electrical components.

1-3 System Capabilities

Sterling central vacuum systems are as varied as the applications they service. The tubing and equipment furnished in a Sterling system are designed to convey the material(s) specified at the time of purchase at specific rates and distances.

Sterling can advise you on your system capabilities based on system makeup, distance, material, and conveying rates you want.

System capacity is directly affected by the pressure drop in the overall system, such as number of material line bends, pipe length, Y-tubes, T-tubes, etc.
