Conveyor for acidic and corrosive powders

Effectively handle corrosive and aggressive powders in chemical processes with this specialized conveyor, ensuring safe transport without contamination or product degradation.

Safely Transfers Corrosive Powders in Production Lines

The VTS – Conveyor rivestito per sostanze acide e corrosive from AGIERRE S.r.l. is specifically designed for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries to seamlessly transfer corrosive and aggressive powders. Utilizing a vacuum-powered mechanism, it ensures a smooth and uninterrupted transportation process without risking contamination. Ideal applications include the handling of aluminum chloride granules and corrosive powder blends, as well as the integration into catalyst and reagent production lines. The system supports continuous and automated operations, facilitating integration with existing powder transfer systems.

The conveyor is clad with advanced protective materials like Blue Armor, Halar ECTFE, and PFA to combat the degrading effects of harsh chemicals. You can benefit from multiple configurations, including pressure protection and inertization, ensuring adaptability to diverse operational needs. Its robust stainless steel, carbon steel, or Hastelloy C22 structure enhances durability and compatibility with corrosive environments.

AGIERRE’s system is designed to meet stringent safety standards, boasting compliance with directives such as ATEX 2014/34/UE and PED 2014/68/UE. It supports enhanced hygiene protocols with its available W.I.P. and C.I.P. systems, ensuring efficient cleaning and maintenance. Custom engineering options allow for tailoring the system to specific production line requirements, providing seamless integration and optimal performance for challenging powder handling applications.
