Pneumatic conveying. (Literature: equipment).Pneumatic conveying systems are featured in this eight-page, four-color, fold-out brochure. Dilute phase conveying equipment is described. Dilute phase conveying is characterized by a positive displacement A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires the fluid being measured to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for any fluid flow to occur. A diaphragm meter, with which most homes are equipped, is an example of a positive displacement meter. blower, usually in the range of 2-10 psig, with a rotary feeder Primary use is for discharge from hoppers/bins, receivers and cyclones into a conveying system. A rotary valve is of no use by itself. Rotary feeder, rotary airlocks and rotary valves are useful as one component in a bulk or specialty material handling system. for dispensing material into the air stream. Dilute phase uses high velocity, low pressure air. Semi-dense phase conveyors are also featured. The company's semi-dense phase technology is said to offer lower material velocities than conventional dilute phase systems. The conveyor is vacuum or gravity filled, then pressurized pres·sur·ize tr.v. pres·sur·ized, pres·sur·iz·ing, pres·sur·iz·es 1. To maintain normal air pressure in (an enclosure, as an aircraft or submarine). 2. , conveying the material to the destination. The company's technology uses a venturi venturi a tube with a decrease in the inside diameter that is used to increase the flow velocity of the fluid and thereby cause a pressure drop; used to measure the flow velocity (a venturimeter) or to draw another fluid into the stream. to create the vacuum for loading the conveyor. Using this approach is said to allow material to be vacuum loaded without the use of filters. Dense phase conveying equipment is described in the literature. Dense phase conveying is said to be the most efficient way to pneumatically transport dry materials. Using high pressure air, it achieves higher solids-to-air ratios and minimizes degradation and abrasive wear by conveying slow moving, tightly packed material, according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the literature. Flow aids and accessories are also described.
