Developing the first air-powered venturi unit and the first to develop the vertical “Tube Hopper” receiver, VAC-U-MAX vacuum conveying components and automated systems consist of five easy-to-use parts: pick-up adapter, convey tubing, vacuum receiver, vacuum producer, and UL-listed control package. Each package transfers products based on timed intervals to the vacuum receiver. At the end of the timed sequence, the discharge valve opens, and the material is conveyed and discharged into the process. Vacuum receivers are available for all types of powders with static conductive filters and pulse filter cleaning for continuous “keep clean” filters, maximizing system performance and plant hygiene.
Vacuum producers create airflow and are available in four options: venturi power units which operate using compressed air, positive displacement pumps for dilute and semi-dilute applications, high vacuum pumps for dense phase conveying, and regenerative blowers that offer lower vacuum but higher airflow and are ideal for conveying granular or pelleted product.
