PHL Series Powder Hopper Loader SRC/AV Vacuum Receiver AEC’s PHL Powder Hopper Loader is used to convey free-flowing powder materials like PVC and PE from gaylords to machine hoppers, blenders, or surge bins. This unit can also be used to convey free-flowing dusty regrind. SRH/SRC vacuum receivers are used at each loading point in a central vacuum conveying system. 0.03, 0.1, and 0.2 cu. ft. (0.79, 2.8, and 5.6 liter) receivers are not to be used on single line “Y” systems, and SRC04 receivers are not recommended. They should be used beside the machine or with dedicated lines.

AEC manufactures several types of vacuum/pressure conveying systems to meet your requirements. Pellets and powders can by conveyed long distances at high rates. A railcar manifold aids the removal of material from the railcar into bulk storage silos. The single motor/blower system delivers approximately equal airflow on the vacuum and pressure sides. For this reason, the motor/blower must be located approximately halfway between the pick-up and delivery points of the system. If locating the assembly at that point is not feasible, or if higher through-puts are required, the dual blower/dual...
