Air Conveyors - Ring-Vac Pneumatic Conveying System
Coated
aluminum and high temperature stainless steel Ring-Vac™
Air Conveyor can convey all types of solids in large
volumes over great distances with no moving parts.
Air Conveyors - Ring-Vac™
Pneumatic Conveying System has virtually no moving parts,
conveys air at high rates and long distances. Utilizing
compressed air for a powerful, efficient venturi action
along its length in a compact design for high capacity
conveying over large distances.
Air Conveyors - Ring-Vac™
Pneumatic Conveying System is available in both coated
aluminum or high temperature stainless steel. Simply clamp
a standard hose size to each end of the Ring-Vac™
to create this high energy conveying system. No moving
parts for maintenance free operation with capacity and
flow controlled with a pressure regulator.
Air Conveyors - Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System
is available in 1" (25mm), 1-1/4" (32mm), 1-1/2"
(38mm), 2" (51mm), 2-1/2" (64mm), and 3"
(76mm) sizes. Any size beyond that can be prohibitive
for most applications due to high compressed air requirements.
In addition, beyond 3", the vacuum ability begins
to drop significantly except for highly intermittent applications.
For applications beyond 3", a blower system often
becomes far more economical except in a rare number of
possible applications. However, larger size versions are
available if required as well as special sizes.
Ring-Vac™
Compressed Air Conveying System - How It Works
Compressed air enters at
point (A) into a annular plenum chamber and injected into
the throat of the unit though directed nozzles. These
jets of compressed air create a vacuum at the inlet (C)
which draws in material and accelerates it through the
unit and out at (D) conveying the material over a great
vertical or horizontal distance.
Features
Benefits
Made of an coated
aluminum body with no moving parts. High temperature
stainless steel models are available for high
temperature and corrosive applications.
Standard sizes
to fit standard hose diameter for easy clamping.
Threaded versions connect easily to regular
pipe thread: 1" (25mm),
1-1/4" (32mm), 1-1/2" (38mm), 2"
(51mm),
2-1/2" (64mm), and 3" (76mm). Special
sizes
can be manufactured if required.
Utilizing a pressure
regulator will control the flow material.
Instant ON/OFF
with no moving parts, no electricity or explosion
hazard.
Longer life in
difficult environments
than competitive models.
Ease of use.
Simple and easy
control of material flow.
Maintenance free
operation.
