Low Profile Screener Allows Rapid Cleaning, Screen Changes
MILLBURN, NJ-A new VIBROSCREEN® Flo-Thru low profile, high capacity screener introduced by Kason Corporation features an Air-Lift device that allows rapid disassembly, cleaning, inspection and screen changes, it was announced by Henry Alamzad, Vice President Sales & Marketing, USA.
The screener employs two unbalanced-weight gyratory motors mounted on opposing exterior sidewalls of the unit, instead of one motor positioned beneath the screening chamber, reducing minimum height requirements significantly. The design also allows vertical alignment of the top inlet and bottom outlet, allowing on-size material to descend through the screen in a straight-through path at high rates. Oversize material is ejected through a spout at the periphery of the screen.
The screen is readily changed, or the internal parts of the unit are easily accessed for thorough wash down, by loosening one clamp ring assembly that connects top and bottom housing sections, then activating the Air-Lift device to raise the upper section.
"Lifting the upper frame/cover assembly of the screener pneumatically, allows operators to change screens and have access to the inside of the unit for cleaning many times faster," claims Alamzad, adding that one operator can now perform what was previously a two person task, depending on screen diameter.
The Flo-Thru low profile screener and the Air-Lift device, both said to be Kason innovations, are offered in diameters from 18" to 84" (460mm to 2135mm), and available to 3-A, FDA, BISSC and other sanitary standards.
The company manufactures numerous types and sizes of gravity-fed and in-line-pneumatic, circular vibratory screeners and centrifugal separators for separating virtually any solid from any solid or slurry, as well as agglomerators, powder coaters and circular fluid bed dryers, coolers and moisturizers.
