Dual-Intake Vacuum System for Dust-Free Bag and Container Unloading

Flexicon’s newest PNEUMATI-CON® dilute phase vacuum conveying system enables dust-free unloading from small bags, sacks and containers. Mounted on a carbon steel access platform, the bag dumping station includes a stainless steel hopper with a dust hood that features a glove box. Emptied bags pass through the opposite side wall opening into a bag compactor. Dust generated during dumping and compaction is drawn away from the operator onto the system's two cartridge filters, which are cleaned by timed blasts of compressed air. The compactor’s cylinder compresses up to 80 bags into a removable bin and includes safety interlocks. A handheld pickup wand, compliant with food and pharmaceutical standards, unloads containers at floor level. Both intake lines converge at a diverter valve and discharge through a filter receiver with a rotary airlock. All conveying lines can be routed vertically and in any horizontal direction and can pass through openings in walls or ceilings.
