PortoVeyor bulk bag unloaders
The self-contained PortoVeyor bulk bag unloaders keep plants productive when bulk truck or rail delivery is interrupted. The skid-mounted PortoVeyors are ruggedly built and can be customized with optional hoists and lifting frames to support and unload all sizes and styles of bulk bags without slippage or spills. They not only open bags and convey their contents, but they also clean up nuisance dust. Bulk bags empty into a receiving hopper, which is fitted with a motor-driven rotary valve that meters contents into the conveying lines. An integral pulse-jet dust collector mounted above the hopper helps maintain a clean working environment and returns product dust to the hopper for transfer. A blower package also mounted on the skid supplies conveying air to move material pneumatically from the hopper discharge to its destination. Frames are constructed of heavy-duty welded and bolted tubular steel for durability and operator safety.

DPG-B Series conveyors
The DPG-B Series gravity-loaded bottom-discharge dense-phase conveyors are ideal for moving powdered, granular, or pelletized friable and abrasive materials. They are rated up to 100+ ton/h and provide high material-to-air ratios and extremely low line velocities, resulting in smaller line sizes, lower air consumption, reduced dust collection, and lower capital investment and operating costs. Abrasive wear and particle degradation are also minimized. Programmable controls (PLCs) offer reduced supervision for automated operation.

pinch diverter valves
These pinch diverter valves are built for obstruction-free flow of dry materials conveyed under pressure in dilute, semi-dense and dense-phase pneumatic systems. They can direct material to two different destinations or be set up to combine material flows from two different sources. Each valve can be adapted for its application and configured to a specific angle of divergence or convergence. They handle pressures up to 85 psig and may be furnished with flanged, plain or grooved pipe connections with integral pressure switches that indicate flow direction. The valves are offered in diameters ranging from 2 in. to 12 in. Standard features include control air filter/regulator, two solenoids and double-wall construction for extended service life. The rubber sleeves are available in pure gum rubber, white neoprene for food-grade applications, and high-temperature rubber.

Cyclonaire Blower Packages
Cyclonaire Blower Packages are designed to meet customers’ elevation, temperature, noise-reduction, and application needs. Each blower is mounted on a rigid-channel iron frame, and can be configured as a standard belt drive, jack shaft drive, or direct drive. Intermediate-pressure (15 psig) models are designed for semi-dense phase vacuum loading/pressure conveying and PD railcar/truck unloading. Low-pressure (8 psig) models handle dilute-phase conveying, silo and hopper aeration, and air-shoot conveying applications. Standard features include: a quality inlet-filter with service indicator; premium inlet and exhaust silencers; a 10-ft hot blower hose; a safety pressure relief-valve; and a heavy-duty outlet check valve.
