For Pneumatic Conveying Systems
Pneumatic conveying systems utilize a blower air source
to move dry bulk materials through stainless steel pipes
from one point to another. The technical design components
require specific calibrabration to conform to the physical
space in which the system resides. Moorhead Company
now offers complete layout drawings on AutoCAD 2000.
Materials being moved require either negative or positive
air pressure. In either case a difference in pressure
is caused to exist between the material feed point and
the delivery point. The feed point is at a higher pressure
than the delivery point, the air moves naturally to
the point of lower pressure.
Understanding Pneumatic Conveying Systems
The qualities of the material to be conveyed in a pneumatic
system determine the amount of air flow or air flow
rate that is required. Different materials require different
air velocities (speeds) to achieve movement through
a conveying line. This air velocity requirement is usually
called the pick-up velocity or terminal velocity.
Pneumatic Conveying systems can differ in air velocities
allowing an appropriate flowability rate for the exact
material required and the travel path. Conveying distances,
the number of bends in the piping, the width of piping,
venting capabilities of the receiving tank are among
the many factors that impact the flow rate and the operating
pressure of the system. We provide the technical expertise
to design, install and consult on these sophisted systems.
Advantages of Pneumatic Conveying Systems.
Moving dry bulk materials through stainless steel piping
eliminates the need for conveyer belts, screw feeders,
bucket elevators and other costly machanical devices.
Pneumatic Conveying uses air preasure as a transport
medium for dry materials and lowers energy consumpsion
and the costly maintenance necessary with caring for
machinary parts that wear out with use.
