Air Blender
Series 379
Fast, homogeneous blending
The Blendcon air blender uses compressed air to
lift, turn and tumble dry materials, utilizing the high
kinetic energy released when compressed air is
allowed to expand rapidly to atmospheric pressure.
Compressed air is pulsed into the material in an
upward circular pattern. This blending method is so
effective that very few pulses are required to com-
plete the blending cycle. Blending is fast and thor-
ough. The ratio of horsepower to material blended
is very low, resulting in high efficiency.The discharge cone valve helps to eliminate deadspots during blending and substantially reduces
segregation during discharge. There are no mixer
arms or blades to wear out or clog, making the
Blendcon air blender ideal for blending abrasive
materials which would shorten the life of a conven-
tional blender.
Better cleanout between batches
The smooth interior silo surfaces help prevent
buildup. There are no mixing blades, tubes, or pipes
to trap material, making it easier to perform any
required cleanout between different batches.
Variable blending control Blends large batches
The blending action and intensity are controlled by
the duration and frequency of air pulses, and by the
pressure and volume of air. These variables are
fully adjustable to achieve optimum results for your
specific application. The Blendcon
® air blender is one of the fastest,most efficient
blenders available for mixing large
batches of dry bulk materials. It can typically blend
a 300 cubic foot batch in just four minutes, and can
handle batches up to 200 tons in capacity.By producing large, consistent, homogeneousbatches, the Blendcon air blender simplifies mate-
rial handling and quality control, andincreases
productivity.
Easily installed
The Blendcon blending head can be installed on an
existing or customer supplied silo, or it can be
ordered with a standard silo or custom-designed
silo to suit your application.
