General

The unit works on the pneumatic conveying principle. According to this, a vacuum generator (A) creates a vacuum, which extends through the pipe ducts and hose assemblies (B), through the separators (C) until it reaches the material take-up assembly (D).

The material which has been conveyed is than separated from the air inside the separator.

Depending on conveyor control system (E) and hopper loaders time conveying mode or probe conveying mode with conveying time used as monitoring time is possible.

A filter cartridge (F) in front of the vacuum generator purifies the aspirated air.

&

Conveying is not possible without movement of air in the ma- terial line.

If the hopper loader reports a lack of material, the conveying is started.

Following the conveying process, if line cleaning times are set, line cleaning ta- kes place. The line cleaning valves interrupt the flow of material and allow air to flow into the connecting pipe. In this way the connecting pipe is cleared of materi- al.
