The Pulseline PTA-PL mobile pneumatic conveying system from Gericke USA is designed to allow its dense phase pneumatic conveying technology to be rolled and connected to the discharge of a tanker, railcar, or other bulk transporter for safe, smooth, dust-free material transfer, according to the company.
The Somerset, N.J.-based process equipment manufacturer developed the system to automatically transfer powders and other bulk materials from receiving outside the plant to storage inside the plant.
Ideal for conveying abrasive, fragile, and sensitive materials, the mobile docking station transfers the materials as a pulsed plug at low velocities to safeguard particle integrity and maintain the distribution of mixed products.
The energy-efficient conveyor transfers both vertically, to reach silo hatches, and horizontally, up to 500 meters or greater, using pulsed secondary air injections along the pipe.
The mobile conveyor is delivered fully assembled and ready to operate. The system may be tested at the company’s New Jersey test laboratory.
