Aerator nozzles for material flow in silos and bins
Ensuring continuous material flow from silos, bins, or hoppers is crucial in various industrial settings. Problems arise from material bridging, rat-holing, or compacting, which can disrupt production processes and require frequent manual intervention.
Optimize material flow and reduce blockages
The U025 and U060 Aerator Nozzles from WAMGROUP provide an economical solution for maintaining material flow in industrial storage units. These nozzles are easy to install and retrofit, fitting seamlessly into existing systems. The U025 model features a brass sintered nozzle suited for fine powdery materials like cement and lime, operating at 0.2 bar (3 PSI). The U060 model, with a polyethylene nozzle, operates at 1 bar (14 PSI) for denser materials. Both models use an engineering polymer casing and require minimal maintenance. Their small footprint makes them particularly suitable for retrofitting in confined spaces. Industries such as ready-mix concrete production, dry mix processing, and bin & silo manufacturing can benefit from these nozzles. For food-grade applications, the VB Vibro-Aerator series is recommended. Ensuring the exhaust of excess air containing entrained dust at the top of the bin or silo is also suggested.
