Dense phase pressure conveying system for fragile powders
Ensure gentle handling and long-distance transport of fragile powders without compromising their integrity, thanks to precise control of velocity and pressure.
Conveys Fragile Powders Efficiently Over Long Distances
The RELCO® Dense Phase Pressure Conveying System by Kovalus Separation Solutions is engineered to transport fragile powders like lactose and whey protein over extensive distances without compromising quality. Utilizing precise control of powder velocity and pressure, it ensures gentle movement, preventing segregation and buildup in the convey lines. Perfect for the dairy, food, and nutraceutical industries, this system achieves instantaneous rates up to 60,000 kg/hr, making it ideal for high-capacity operations. The system integrates seamlessly into existing lines, offering PLC control with custom engineering to match specific conveying parameters. Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials, it supports diverse operations, from continuous to automated, while minimizing energy usage by optimizing air pressure. This solution is not only robust but also facilitates clean-in-place (CIP) procedures, ensuring maintenance is efficient and contamination-free.
