P10 Vacuum Sequencing Central Receiver

The Premier Pneumatics P10 is designed to convey powders and meets the rigid sanitary requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries. With the choice of various discharge valve types (powered flap and active driven butterfly valves) the P10 can be used for conveying only applications such as hopper loading, as well as lossin-weight feeder refill applications, where the receiver is not always emptied completely.

Conveying Rates:

• P10 flap valve versions up to 600 kg/h (1320 lb/h)
• P10 butterfly valve version up to 400 kg/h ([880 lb/h)

Based on a distance of 15 m (50 ft) and bulk density of 0.5 kg/dm³ (31lb/ft³). Rates vary with material characteristics, conveying distance and plant layout.

Design

All components are constructed of stainless steel (DIN 1.4404, AISI 316L) and are available in bead blast, satin or mirror polish finish. All units have reverse jet filters and include tri clover quick release fittings, food grade gaskets and an automatic filter cleaning system.

Mechanical Features

• Sanitary design for easy cleaning
• Rugged modular design
• Steep cone angles ensure excellent discharge
• Large area reverse jet filter for efficient powder conveying

Controls

For single receiver applications, we offer the combination of HCU control unit together with the HSU operator interface. In loss-in-weight feeder refill applications, the HCU can also be interfaced with K-Tron SmartConnexTM feeder controls. For systems with multiple receivers, a variety of PLC control solutions are available, which can also be integrated into K-Tron feeder control systems.
