Line Vac™ Family
A fast, low cost way to convey plastic pellets, scrap trim, textiles, bulk solids, food products, chips, paper, pills/tablets, small parts, shavings, sawdust and granules.
EXAIR's compressed air operated Line Vac connects to standard hose or tube to create a powerful in-line conveyor. The compact design features large throat diameters for maximum throughput capability. Eleven sizes in aluminum and ten in stainless steel are suited to a wide variety of transfer applications.
Line Vac conveyors are ideal for moving large volumes of material over long distances. A small amount of compressed air is injected through directed nozzles to produce a vacuum on one end and high output flows on the other, with instantaneous response. The material flow rate is easily controlled with a pressure regulator. No moving parts or electricity assures maintenance free operation. https://exair.co/184_564
