Pneumatic Conveying Systems
Clean, safe and environmentally friendly conveyors
As one of Europe's leading suppliers of pneumatic conveying systems, Portasilo offers you an unrivalled selection of environmentally friendly vacuum, lean-phase and dense-phase conveyors suitable for a whole range of bulk materials. When you choose Portasilo pneumatic conveyors you are assured of a totally enclosed unit that delivers the clean, safe environment essential for many toxic, explosive or otherwise hazardous materials.
Superflo (dense-phase conveying)
The Portasilo Superflo dense-phase pneumatic conveying system features a unique online airflow monitoring system and in-built blending capacity. Manufactured in both stainless and mild steel, it is capable of handling either single materials or a blend of materials over a range of 350m at a rate of up to 100tph.
The system has a design life in excess of 1.5 million cycles, which is typically 30 years in normal operational conditions. The online airflow monitoring system constantly evaluates the effectiveness of the conveying process and automatically adjusts the system to ensure optimum performance at all times.
- Low abrasion and velocity - minimising degradation
- High tolerance to product variation - suitable for handling multiple products
- In-vessel material blending - for improved process efficiency
- Online airflow control - optimises your conveying parameters
- Design life of 1.5 million cycles (typically 30 years) - for guaranteed long-life performance
- Continuous conveying - using twin vessels
- Low-maintenance system
Lean-phase conveying
Portasilo lean-phase pneumatic conveying systems are tailor-made to suit individual customer requirements, providing optimum operating conditions and ensuring ease of operation and maintenance. Lean-phase systems use low-pressure to convey the material and allow maximum flexibility in conveying rates. They have higher velocities than dense-phase systems, with lower capital costs. Lean-phase pneumatic conveying is highly efficient and reliable, with economic operating costs.
Vacuum conveying
Vacuum conveying systems are individually designed by Portasilo to suit specific material characteristics, using standard modular components. We manufacture systems from stainless steel, carbon steel or a combination of aluminium and stainless steel, depending on your requirements. Vacuum conveying can be used for free-flowing, cohesive or explosive products.
