PALAMATIC propose the vacuum transport system V-Flow running on a dense phase principle.
The product is sucked through a vacuum pump (electric or pneumatic) to a arrival cyclone (cyclo-filter) with tangential arrival (cylindrical).
The product is sucked through a pneumatic conveyor gearbox installed at the point of withdrawal (no rotary valve) until the vacuum cyclone that is equipped with filters of small sizes to separate the air from the product.
The vacuum cyclone is equipped with a butterfly valve (or other if the process requires) and a level probe allowing the emptying at regular intervals.
The rates obtained by this type of powder pumps are between 5 and 10 000 litres per hour with low energy consumption and extremely simple maintenance.
The other advantage of this powder system is the ease of the implementation of the weight control.
The cyclone vacuum may be located on loading cells allowing the suction and feeding of the conveyed product.
For incorporation of powder into liquids (powder skid), the powder pump solutions are often used because of their advantages:
- weighing of the product
- simple system
- easy cleaning
- simple piping that can be modified in the future.
The pneumatic conveyor gearbox can also be replaced with a sucking pipe handled by the operator.
This type of pump for powder is generally associated with weighing. Indeed, the hopper of departure may be located on load cells and a purge valve is shutting off product flow ensuring management of the fall.
On the contrary, the cyclone of reception can be implemented on load cells in order to extract from different points the right amount of product needed in the preparation of the premix.
All these transport systems by suction can be mounted directly under sacks unloading stations, big bags unloading units, containers, silos ...
Options
Level probe
Switch
The switches are available in diameters from 51 to 250 mm. The design of the switches includes swelling of the joints that ensure the tightness of the line with no leakage.
Sucking pipe
Pneumatic vibrator
For products with difficult flow, we propose the establishment of a pneumatic vibrator located in the lower part of the cyclone on a platinum dedicated.Videos / Photos
