Chapter 3: Functional Description

This functional description is intended for the operating personnel of the equipment.

General knowledge of operating conveyor units is required.

Ensure in each case that the operating personnel are sufficiently informed.

The XSV-05/R and XSV-05/2R are designed for conveying dust-free plastic granules and regrind material. Only the XSV-05/2R is capable of conveying two materials.

3-1 Method of Functioning

The single conveyor unit works

 

according to the Venturi Principle. An

 

external compressed air supply is

 

needed.

 

A venturi meter (A) is integrated in the

 

venturi assembly.

 

The venturi meter aspirates the material

 

in the lower part of the tube (C) and then

 

conveys the material into the conveyor

 

hopper using compressed air in the

 

upper part (B). In the hopper loader, the

 

material is separated from the air.

 

The filling level of conveyor hopper is

 

monitored and controlled by a level

 

sensor located on the sight glass below

 

the receiver.

 

Note: The venturi assembly is factory

 

pre-set for optimum conveying. DO NOT

Figure 4: Venturi Assembly
