Dilute-Phase Pneumatic Processing Lines

In our competitor’s design, the T-handle clamps are allowed to over crush the gasket and deform the housing's actual steel plate. This makes sealing impossible. This image shows the right-side edge crushed and pulled back in a distorted way.

Transload Solutions:

The bullet-style pneumatic magnetic line is engineered to maintain consistent pressure without any loss or drop as the product flows through. It features a ball-valve adjustment to control the flow speed,addressing potential product chunks that can accumulate on the sides of railcars. As these chunks build up on the screen, the velocity can increase,which can be managed by adjusting the ball-valve. This system is mounted on a heavy-duty cart, designed for greater stability and resistance to tipping. This setup addresses the customer's need to manage the process in a narrow space.

Client : Trans-loading customer, looking to insure no contamination from the rail car to the truck.

Objective : Detect and collect metal contaminants between rail cars being used for product storage and transfer to pneumatic trailers for transport to end user. Secondary use validates ingredients being brought into the plant have no contaminates.  Customer wanted the unit to be portable for both manual movement on muddy track sideservice and at their receiving silos.

Solution: The Pneumatic Line Magnet has a cylindrical magnetic field with seven elevated poles and a lightweight cone diverter. This design efficiently collects metal particles and holds them outside of the product stream until cleaning, allowing for continuous product flow.Highlighted features include the tall, angled poles for better performance and to prevent wash-off, the quick-clean design door with DE-STA-CO clamps, theSani-Tight™ Gasket for a leak-proof seal, and the increased pole count provides multiple opportunities for fines recovery.

Summary: Knowing that each truck has been inspected for ferrous contamination provides peace of mind, tramp metal is not being introduced from outside suppliers. The Pneumatic Line magnet offers a reliable and efficient solution to the unique challenges posed by dilute-phase pneumatic processing lines. Owing to its creative design and competitive differentiators,it maximizes product flow, ensures effective metal control, and reduces the chance of wash-off.  The bullet proof seal ensures that there will be no product leaks.
