Compressed Air Australia has a new range of Exair Sanitary Flange Line Vac air-operated conveyors for moving materials through systems that require frequent or mandatory cleaning.
The ISO 2852-compatible sanitary flanges limit areas where bacteria can grow, helping to prevent contamination.
Made from type 316 stainless steel to provide maximum hygiene and corrosion resistance, the Line Vacs are available in 1-1/2", 2", 2-1/2" and 3" (38mm, 51mm, 64mm and 76mm) flange sizes.
Flanged Line Vacs convert flanged piping systems into a conveyor for product, parts, scrap, trim and other bulk materials. Their larger size means they can convey bigger parts and large volumes of material over long distances.
Sanitary Flange Line Vac conveyors eject a small amount of compressed air to produce a vacuum on one end, with high-output flows on the other.
Response is instantaneous and regulating the compressed air pressure provides infinite control of the conveying rate, according to the company.
Applications include material conveying, part transfer, fibre tensioning, scrap trim removal, and filling operations.
