Check-screening during dilute phase pneumatic conveying – improving quality without sacrificing productivity New Russell Blow Thru Sieve

The new Blow Thru sieve Introduction How it works Benefits Specification Who to target Sales support material Test results Pricing Sales codes

Background introduction As the need for superior quality increases processors are adding more quality inspections to their processes Positive pressure screening has been identified as a valuable potential market where Russell Finex can achieve sales A need to screen incoming ingredients during dilute phase pneumatic conveying was identified. Customers need to screen incoming ingredients without slowing down the delivery/unloading process

Background introduction Some of our competitors are already exploiting this market Russell Finex have the expertise to provide better solutions to the problems associated with positive pressure sieving Pressurised panwork has been developed previously for the C600 C.I.P.

The Blow Thru Sieve Introduction Completely enclosed vibratory screener Fully certified pressure vessel 2 dished body sections connected by a hinge No spacer or magnet Mesh frames modified with cross members. Larger than standard Compact inspection ports as standard

The Blow Thru Sieve Introduction Oversize outlet not yet available but will be later on 3 lifting lugs Minimum mesh size at present is 1000 micron. This may change as we get experience.

How it works Material enters the sieve under pressure via a tangential inlet Good product passes through the mesh Oversize material is collected on top of the mesh Good material passes out of the sieve via an outlet at the bottom

Main benefits to customers Removes contamination to improve product quality and ensure customers reputation Screening and conveying in one process increases efficiency by eliminating double handling/processing Completely enclosed screening reduces mess and potential harm to operators The fully mobile unit can be used at multiple locations in one site

Benefits over Competitors Fully certified and tested for use in a positive pressure line Constructed to PD5500. Conforms to pressure equipment directive 97/23/EC. High throughput rates are achieved with straight through design and tangential inlet and outlet Disassembly is an easy task due to simple design and is achieved using a single inclusive tool Safety features – Lock-off system prevents accidental closing during cleaning – Spring assisted opening limits manual lifting
