Continuous Flow Process Equipment
CentriFlow® Dry Solids Mass Flow Meter
Continuous flow measurement is accomplished with a patented curved plate sensing element designed to cancel frictional forces so that the resulting reading is unaffected by product elasticity, density, shape, or friction. Flow ranges are from 1-100 cu. meters per hour with a turn down ratio of 20:1. The accuracy of the meter is +- .25% full scale on virtually all free flowing solids with a wide range of densities.
Weigh Screw Feeder
Continuous flow measurement is accomplished with a cantilevered screw feeder with pivot centered under the in-feed of the feeder with the feeder suspended from a load cell hung from the discharge end. The feeder is sized for flow rates from 7-170 cu. meters per hour with a turn down ratio of 5:1. The accuracy of the feeder is +-1% full scale on virtually all free flowing solids with a wide range of densities. Optional close tolerance construction of the feeder and low RPM are used to minimize breakage of fragile materials. Each unit comes complete with support frame, flanged inlet transition with flexible connector, load cell with mounting hardware, TEFC motor with gear/belt reducer. Materials of construction are mild steel with stainless steel optional.
Weigh Belt Conveyor
Continuous flow measurement is accomplished with a cantilevered belt conveyor with pivot centered under the in-feed of the belt with the conveyor suspended from a load cell hung from the discharge end. The belts are sized for flow rates from 7-170 cu. meters per hour with a turn down ratio of 5:1. The belt rides on a slider bed and the materials are 3 ply polyester with nitrile cover and hidden lacing. The unit comes complete with flanged inlet transition and flexible connector, adjustable bed depth gate, adjustable side skirting and scraper, hinged top cover, expanded metal bottom cover, outlet flexible connector, floor or ceiling mounted support frame, two load cells with mounting hardware and summing box, TEFC drive with gear/chain reduction, and rotary encoder. Options include stainless steel and food grade construction, ac or dc variable speed drive, and scale integrator. Accuracy is +- 1 percent of full scale.
