Bucket elevator gently transports<br />
materials without spills<br />
Monocoque TipTrak bucket<br />
elevator’s Z configuration<br />
allows gentle handling of powders<br />
and bulk solids while<br />
eliminating transfers. Elevator’s<br />
interlocking buckets ensure<br />
spillage-free loading. Elevator’s<br />
molded rubber chains have no<br />
moving parts and don’t require<br />
lubrication, ensuring low<br />
maintenance. Elevator is available<br />
with different enclosures,<br />
including open tubular frames<br />
and dust-tight models with sealed and hinged access doors for<br />
easy maintenance. Booth 6-114.<br />

Silo fluidizer prevents material bridging<br />
in small vessels<br />
Mini Disk silo fluidizer<br />
prevents material from<br />
bridging, ratholing,<br />
and compacting in<br />
silos, bins, and hoppers.Two-inch-diameter<br />
unit fits in pipes,<br />
chutes, and small hoppers<br />
as well as tightcurvature<br />
chambers with diameters as small as 4 inches.<br />
Compact unit uses directional airflow along the chamber wall<br />
to loosen material and move it to the discharge point. Unit’s<br />
gentle vibration at the disk’s outer edges helps keep powders<br />
and bulk solids flowing. Unit’s disk seals tightly against the<br />
chamber wall, allowing minimal back pressure and preventing<br />
air line plugging. Unit withstands temperatures up to<br />
170°C. Booth 8-224.<br />

Flow aid eliminates bridging, ratholing<br />
in hoppers<br />
ActiFlow material flow aid<br />
reliably prevents bridging of<br />
cohesive bulk materials in<br />
stainless steel hoppers. Unit<br />
eliminates the need for an<br />
arch breaker when used in<br />
loss-in-weight feeding applications.<br />
Unit is maintenance-free<br />
with no material<br />
contact surfaces, making it<br />
suitable for applications with<br />
sticky materials that tend to build ratholes. Booth 7-366.<br />

Rotary valve handles pressure<br />
differentials up to 15 psi<br />
DR-S series rotary airlock<br />
valve and feeder is for<br />
pneumatic conveying and<br />
bulk material handling<br />
applications. Unit is suitable<br />
for pressure differentials<br />
up to 15 psi. Unit features<br />
a rugged housing<br />
with square or round flange<br />
configurations, close precision-machined<br />
internal surfaces,<br />
and cast-iron or stainless steel construction. Booth 6-153.<br />
