Loss-in-Weight S60

* Application
Gravimetric feeding of easy flowing powders, granules and other bulk materials.
The SmartConnex？control system allows individual or a multi-component control. Interface-modules for computer communication are installed in the SCM.
* Design
Modular single-shaft feeder with base hopper mounted on a 3-point weighing system. A great variety of feeder screws allows accomodation of various bulk materials. All parts in contact with the material being fed, are stainless steel.
The modular design allows easy interchange of hopper, agitator, drive or even another type of feeder.
The modular components are held together by V-clamps. By opening the V-clamp on the lower hopper end by tool, the feeder will swing out for easy cleaning.
Oil free, high efficiency drive system.
The horizontal agitator gently moves bulk material to the large throat and then into the discharge screw. It is removable without tools. The horizontal agitator speed totals 20% of the screw speed.

• Feed rate information
  The feed rates stated serve only as a guide. They may deviate significantly from the values given in the tables depending on the bulk material used. Accurate feed rates only after a test with the bulk material. The maximum values stated are based on a DC motor speed of 2000rpm and a screw filling of 90%. For continuous operation it is recommended that the speed of the screw should not drop below 5rpm.
  
• Gravimetric feed rate in kg/h
  The feed rates in kg/h can be calculated from the bulk density.
  
• Feed rates when using AC motors
  The feed rates may here be roughly estimated through a calculation using the screw speeds. The standard speed range for a 1500rpm AC motor is 140 to 2000 rpm. Optionally also AC motors running at 1000 or 750rpm are available. Screw speed range upon request.
  
• Available screws
  Besides the screws given in the table, the following types are also available:
  AC: 15W/22G/25W/40W/50 AF: 22G/25W/40W/50
  SC: 15G/15W/25W/40W/45 SF: 25W/40W/45
  G indicates a granulate screw, W indicates a screw with helix at the feed section. Depending on the grain size of the granules, an appropriate space between screw and tube is selected.
  Feed rates upon request.
