The separated material enters the zig-zag separator via a rotary valve and is distributed across the entire cross-section of the separating channel. The separating air generated by the blower flows through the separator from bottom to top, flushing and separating the bulk material.
At each bend in the separator channel, the product must pass through the air flow and then collides with the opposite separator wall. The material with a higher density sinks downwards in the sifter channel as a result of gravity. The light material is sucked out of the separator channel by the upward air flow.
The air speed of the fan is set using a frequency converter provided by the customer. For maintenance and servicing work, the zigzag separator has maintenance doors on both sides and the rotary valves have maintenance openings.
The air separator is adjustable in depth and can be operated in both exhaust air and recirculation mode. The extracted air is cleaned via a downstream filter system or a cyclone separator.
Machine:
The machine separates a wide variety of bulk materials according to their specific weight, shape and size.
Options
Depending on the application or abrasiveness of the material to be separated, different wear lining variants are available, e.g. HARDOX, PU, stainless steel, ceramic.
Complete designs in stainless steel and surface finishes to meet requirements are also available.
