Pneumatic conveying is the movement of products through pipeline using air. Many industries move powders, pellets from filling areas to machines for processing. Pneumatic conveying can be done using vacuum or blow air. The type of vacuum pump chosen depends on the type of conveying be it dense phase or light phase.
We can supply oil recirculting rotary vane vacuum pumps such as Busch vacuum, PVR Rotant vacuum, or Esam side channel blowers or venturi DF transfer units.
The flow needed depends on the distance being conveyed, the height and the pipe diameter.
