Hygienic feeding hopper for bulk solids
In industries handling bulk solids, maintaining high hygiene standards is critical, especially in food and pharmaceutical processing. Typical challenges include contamination risks, difficult cleaning processes, and compliance with stringent safety regulations.
Ensures safe and clean material feeding
The Hygienic Feeding Hopper Type ET-H from AZO is designed for the safe and efficient feeding of powdered and granular products into closed material handling systems. It’s constructed from high-quality stainless steel with an interior surface roughness of less than 0.6 µm or 0.8 µm, making it easy to clean and residue-free. The integrated jet cleaner enables thorough wet cleaning. Its silicone gasket is metal detectable and simple to replace, reducing downtime. The cover opens with gas springs, and a safety-compliant cover switch controls the system functions. Suitable for ATEX zones 22 and 2, the hopper is ideal for applications where explosion risks exist. Additionally, an aspiration process can be connected to prevent dust escape during sack discharge, ensuring a cleaner working environment.
