Product catalog summary
Highlights
  • Dust-free applications
  • High standard of hygiene
  • Ergonomic design
  • ATEX compliance
  • Cleanable by CIP (only for selected models)
Application

The powder hoppers are designed for use with Tetra Pak® High Shear Mixers with vacuum. They come in various sizes: 100, 250, and 2000 liters for manual de-bagging, with the 2000-liter model also accommodating big bags. The 350-liter hopper is intended for medium-sized powder additions and features a closed unit with CIP capability and external dust extraction connection.

Working Principle

Powders are loaded from the top, requiring a platform for larger models. The powders are drawn into the mixer in a dense phase to minimize air incorporation. A vibrating motor prevents bridging and rat holes during intake, with a maximum distance of 8 meters between the hopper and mixer.
