Technical Specs
Description
The TR Loading Bellows Positioner consists of a support frame structure with an inlet connecting flange of 300 mm (22”) diameter positioned in its centre.
The frame structure supports a motor-driven hopper underneath, which runs on four wheels on tracks in one-axis horizontal direction.
The hopper is provided with a row of nylon brushes all around the inlet edge. The brushes are pressed against the cover acting as a seal against dust leakage.
