Product catalog summary
Continuous Level Monitoring for an Efficient Production Process
Overview: The 500 V HOPPER is an abrasive delivery system designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of cutting processes by continuously monitoring abrasive levels and ensuring stable material flow.
Key Features:
  • Abrasive Flow Monitoring: The system ensures the availability of sufficient abrasive throughout the cutting process, preventing material damage and reducing costs and time.
  • Abrasive Low Level Sensor: Equipped with a normally closed proximity switch sensor, it alerts operators when abrasive levels are low, allowing integration with waterjet system controllers for timely refills.
  • Storage and Loading: The hopper can hold up to 600 pounds of abrasive, with a screened loading area for easy bag loading.
  • Air Regulation: Includes an air regulator and a two-way valve for pressure control and on/off capabilities.
  • Reliability and Maintenance: Offers high reliability and low maintenance at a cost-effective price.
Specifications:
  • Dimensions: Height: 58.4 in (148.3 cm), Width: 31.0 in (78.7 cm), Length: 33.1 in (84.1 cm)
  • Weight: 320 lbs (145.1 kg) when dry
  • Hopper Capacity: 6.5 ft³ (0.18 m³)
  • Recommended Air Supply: 60-80 psi (4.1-5.5 bar)
  • Air Flow Requirement: Startup: 10 ft³/min (0.28 m³/min), Operating: 1.0 ft³/min (0.028 m³/min)
  • Connections: Air Inlet: ½” NPT Female, Abrasive Outlet: ½” Barb Fitting
Conclusion: The 500 V HOPPER is a critical component for optimizing waterjet cutting systems, providing stability, security, and efficiency through its advanced monitoring and delivery features.
