Energy-Efficient Conveyors Work Well In Small Spaces

April 8, 2009

PIAB Inc., manufacturer of industrial vacuum conveyors and components, introduces its C2100-64 vacuum conveyor. Engineered to be compact yet powerful, the C2100-64 quietly and hygienically conveys powder and bulk materials in spaces with very low ceilings or limited space, according to the company.

The C2100-64 conveyor features COAX multistage ejector technology, which is said to consume less air and energy than any other compressed-air-driven conveyor currently available. The design of the conveyor improves the vacuum-assisted flow by 25% without affecting energy consumption. Because it is powered by COAX technology, the C-2100-64 is able to transport up to 1,000 pounds/hour of powders and granules.

Constructed of stainless steel AISI 316L (EN 1.4404), PIAB’s C2100-64 conveyor is designed to withstand the most demanding manufacturing environment. The C2100-64 conveyor can be equipped with a Mahle filter, which is recommended for powders with a particle size of 0.5 micron and greater depending on powder properties.  The conveyor operates at feed pressures between 58-87psi and at working temperature between 32 and 140° F.
