Abstract: The separator has a separating base (3) in the vessel (1), at an angle to the horizontal. In the sludge trap chamber (5) it defines a sludge sump at an acute downwards angle and a floating matter collection zone at an acute upwards angle. A sludge takeoff (17) is at the lowest point of the sludge trap chamber, and the floating matter takeoff (21) is at the highest point of the separation chamber. The separation chamber (7) is operated without a free level. The sludge takeoff (17) is located at a point one-quarter of the vessel (1) height, and the grease takeoff (21) is at three-quarters of the vessel height. The separation base (3) acts as a heat exchange surface between the sludge trap chamber (5) and the separation chamber. An air bleed (23) is at the highest point of the separation chamber so that the vessel can be totally filled during operation without a free level. The connecting channel (19) in the separation chamber has an opening (19a) which is aligned upwards. The apparatus, when structured to separate grease, has a heating system at least at the upper section of the separating base and/or at the takeoff for the light matter, to heat and liquefy the floating grease. A trough, with an overflow weir, can be in front of the clean water takeoff (27). The overflow edge for the floating matter is structured and heated so that the light material can flow constantly over it. A grease collection chamber has an air bleed valve which, when closed, has a hollow and air-filled zone under it. When the valve is opened, any grease under the air zone floats upwards into the hollow section. The sludge trap chamber is linked to a sludge collection chamber with an air bleed valve. When the valve is closed, an air-filled zone is formed under it. When the valve is opened, the contents under the air space can move into it. A separator apparatus for starch, after a sludge trap, has a separation vessel divided by a separating base into an upper sludge trap chamber and a lower separation chamber. The sludge trap chamber has an inlet (13) for the water to be cleaned, and the separation chamber has an outlet for the clean water with an overflow edge. A connecting channel is between the sludge trap chamber and the separation chamber, with an overflow in the sludge trap chamber. The separating base is angled against the horizontal, and defines a sludge sump at an acute downwards angle. A sludge takeoff is at the lowest point of the sludge trap chamber, and a starch takeoff is at the lowest point of the separation chamber.

Abstract: A powder receiving device (1) has a loading chamber (40) with an integral dust
collector. The dust collector preferably includes at least one bag filter (30) which
filters air taken from above powder loaded into the loading chamber. The filtered air
is then fed back into the loading chamber (40), into a hopper (16) where the powder
is released to an external location, or out over the container (17a) from which the
powder is loaded. This air flow provides for increased fluidity of the powder. The bag
filter (30) is positioned facing the loading chamber (40), such that when a backwash
means (14) sends a pulse of air into the bag filter (30), the collected powder is dropped
back into the loading chamber (40). The powder receiving device (1) prevents dust
and/or powder from escaping when powder is transferred from a container into the

Abstract: The invention relates to a connection for connecting a measuring device (6) to a gas pipe, comprising: a connecting element (1) for arranging in the gas pipe which divides the gas pipe into a first and a second piece (2, 3); a connecting plug (4) which can be coupled to the connecting element and which is connected to the measuring device by means of a measuring line (5), wherein the connecting element comprises a valve which is actuable by the connecting plug and which normally mutually connects the first and the second piece of the gas pipe and which, when the connecting plug is coupled to the connecting element, connects the first piece of the gas pipe to the measuring line and closes the second piece of the gas pipe. As a result of these measures the valve is operated by the connecting plug, so that opening and closing of taps is no longer necessary. The operation of such a connection is therefor greatly simplified. A perhaps even more important advantage lies in the fact that safety is ensured, since when the connecting plug is removed the measuring line is automatically closed.
