EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS FOR HANDLING BULK MATERIALS HIGH SPEED VACUUM FAN The high-speed suction fan draws volatile dust away from the operator through two cartridge filters. The reverse pulse jet automatically returns accumulated dust on the filter surfaces to the hopper. Hoppers at Flexicon Bag Dump Stations are offered with outlets configured for: Press to enlarge Non-flow pickup adapters for simple conveying lines Press to enlarge Non-flow pickup adapters for multiple conveyor lines Press to enlarge Flexible Screw Conveyor Loading Adapters Press to enlarge Rotary valves with flow adapters BAG DUMPING STATIONS Inverted pulsation filter cleaning for continuous operation Efficient dust collection Flexicon Bag Dump Stations (also known as Manual Dump Stations) collect dust generated when powders and bulk solids are dumped from bags, boxes, drums and other containers and the material is returned to the hopper. The system reduces material waste and eliminates the need to clean a remote dust collection site, while protecting workers and preventing plant contamination. All units feature a high-speed vacuum fan that draws volatile dust away from the operator through two cartridge filters that are sized for the application. In order to operate the bag dump station, the hopper lid is opened, the suction fan is activated, and the material is dumped through the hopper screen. Volatile dust around the hopper opening is drawn into the dust collector, thereby protecting workers, preventing plant contamination, and reducing material waste. An automatic reverse pulsation filter cleaning system employs time-actuated solenoid valves to release the brief bursts of compressed plant air inside the cartridge filters, causing the accumulation of dust on the external surfaces of the filter to fall into the filter. hopper. Since the filters are detonated alternately at intervals, the operation of the dust collection system is both continuous and efficient. Designed according to your processes Hoppers on Flexicon's Manual Dump Stations are available in a variety of configurations to simplify connection to pneumatic conveyor lines, flexible screw conveyors, and virtually any process equipment. All units are available in carbon steel with durable industrial finishes or stainless steel in industrial or sanitary finishes.
