Components of This System
Feeder Rotary AirLock Valve
This Feeds the material into the conveying Line. It is most important component in the System. The size of this Rotary Airlock Valve is responsible for capacity limitation. It should be properly selected. Higher size will lead to chocking of the system. Smaller size will lead to reduced capacity of the system
Pickup Nozzle or Ventury
This is responsible for lining up the material into the conveying pipeline to be fluidized in the system. It is here that the material is fluidized and starts its journey.
Conveying Ducting
It is the main pipeline that conveys the material to the discharge point. Care should be taken to have shortest root during designing the layout.
Dust Collector
It separates the Fludized material from air. The air separated is vented our from the Blower. It filters the air and material giving out clean air.
Discharge Rotary Airlock Valve
It discharges the material collected in the Dust Collector. Without this Rotary Airlock Valve system cannot run. It is installed below the Dust Collector.
Other Optional Equipment
In place of a Dust Collector a cyclone separator can be used. Its outlet will be dusty. Hence it cannot be used when powders are conveyed. In some places Suction Blowers are used to smooth the air flow. When material is directly Discharged into silo. the Discharge Rotary Airlock Valve is installed below silos. When Multiple Discharge Points are to be catered, Diverter valves are used. A control Panel is also need to control all the motors and have necessary interlockings
