Dense phase conveying pumps for bulk material transfer

Optimize your material handling with pneumatic conveying solutions designed to efficiently transfer and process challenging bulk solids, reducing energy consumption and enhancing operational throughput.

Transfers and Regulates Bulk Material Flow

The ProPhase® conveying pumps from Schenck Process offer a robust solution for transferring a wide range of solid and powdered materials across chemical, gypsum, and metal industries. These pumps utilize dense phase pneumatic conveying to efficiently move materials such as pre-calcined gypsum, fly ash cement, and pulverized coal. Capable of handling up to 250 tons per hour and operating across distances up to 1500 meters, these systems are designed for both batch and continuous operations. Featuring a unique Dome Valve technology, they ensure reliable flow regulation with minimal maintenance. Integration is seamless with pre-piped and pre-wired configurations that include electro-pneumatic controls. The pumps also boast reduced energy consumption through optimized airflow management, enhancing operational efficiency. Configurable to meet specific industrial requirements, these systems are adaptable to various environmental conditions, ensuring optimal performance across all applications.

Benefits

  • Enhances operational efficiency with seamless material transfer over long distances.
  • Lowers operating costs by minimizing air consumption through optimized pipeline design.
  • Ensures reliable performance with minimal maintenance using robust Dome Valve technology.
  • Offers flexibility with configurations for diverse materials, from fine powders to large granules.
  • Supports environmental compliance with enclosed systems that reduce material loss and dust emission.
