Positive pressure conveyor

Positive pressure conveying systems are ideal for handling powders, granules, pellets, and flake-type materials. They are configured with four key components:

• A blower to provide the conveying motive air
• A rotary valve to regulate the material flow into the conveying line
• A conveying pipeline to the end point, often navigating a congested plant layout
• A destination filter to separate the conveyed material from the air

This method of pneumatic conveying has a significant advantage over other systems because it allows for single or multiple material entry points and multiple destinations, which provides more flexibility.

Positive pressure conveying systems are typically used to convey materials from under silos, sack dump stations, or bulk bag unloaders to storage silos, weigh hoppers, and mixers.
