Abstract:
A conveyor system ( 10 ) for transporting a transportable material (M) by means of a fluid for transporting the transportable material (M) between a first conveying line portion ( 11 ) and a second conveying line portion ( 12 ), said conveying line portions ( 11, 12 ) comprising a plurality of pipes forming a continuous conveying line ( 13 ), said system ( 10 ) comprising: a conveyor device ( 1 ) in fluid connection to one of said first or said conveying line portions ( 11, 12 ) operative to provide negative air pressure or vacuum through said conveying line ( 13 ); a material feeder device ( 2 ); wherein the conveyor device ( 1 ) comprises at least one material level sensor ( 1 a,  1 b ), wherein the at least one material level sensor ( 1 a,  1 b ) is used to monitor one or more material level(s) inside the conveyor device ( 1 ) and via one or more material level sensor lines ( 3 ) giving at least one material level signal ( 1 aa,  1 bb ) to a controller ( 4 ) and from the controller ( 4 ) via a control signal line ( 5 ) transmit a control signal ( 5 a ) to the material feeder device ( 2 ) having a valve ( 6 ) adapted to control the amount of air injected into the system, typically the into the conveying line ( 13 ), wherein the controller ( 4 ) is adapted to control the valve ( 6 ) and/or a mass-flow (M), respectively, of the material feeder device ( 2 ) in dependence of output from the at least one material level sensor ( 1 a,  1 b ) to control amount of air injected into the conveying line ( 13 ) at the feeder device ( 2 ).

Claim (Index 5):
The conveyor system according to  claim 1 , wherein the valve comprises a proportional actuator.
