Self-contained AIRLANCO bag dump stations help eliminate spills and airborne dust where bagged materials are added to processing or conveying lines | AIRLANCO Bag Dump Stations are compact, self-contained units built to eliminate the labor, waste and potential health hazards associated with the spillage and dust normally caused when bagged materials are introduced into processing systems. Construction is 304 stainless steel, with welded interior and exterior. Each station consists of a large collection hopper topped by a bar grate and hinged door, an integral pulse jet filtration unit equipped with polyester cartridge filters and a two horsepower, 865 cfm fan. When the hopper’s door is opened, the fan automatically starts to ensure that any dust is drawn through the filter. Programmable pulses of reverse air periodically dislodge the material that collects on the surfaces of the cartridge filters and allow it to fall into the collection hopper. The sloped sides of the hopper angle toward the hopper’s discharge port, which can be joined to gravity fed spouting or to an airlock and pneumatic line. AIRLANCO also makes airlocks that are available in fabricated and machined models for gravity feeds, pneumatic systems and volumetric discharge devices. AIRLANCO has years of air management experience and is a leading manufacturer of aeration equipment and systems. The company also builds dust collection equipment for a broad range of industries and applications. To comment on this story or for additional details click on related button above. |
