Exair’s new 303 Stainless Steel 3/8” and ½ Threaded Line Vac Air Operated Conveyors convert ordinary pipe into a conveying system for parts, scrap, trim, and other bulk materials.

Their small size enables them to fit in the cramped spaces of production lines.

The Threaded Line Vac is designed to attach to plumbing pipe couplers, sanitary flanges, and other pipe fittings, making it easy to build a complete system using ordinary pipe and fittings.

The new sizes make it easy to sample gas streams, or grains and other ingredients, and move small parts. They can also transport scrap or product out of small spaces.

Threaded Line Vac Conveyors eject a small amount of compressed air to produce a vacuum on one end, and high output flows on the other.

Regulating the compressed air pressure provides infinite control of the conveying rate.

Applications include scrap trim removal, material conveying, part transfer, fibre tensioning, filling operations, and sampling.

The conveyors are available from Compressed Air Australia.
