XSV-05, XSV-05/R, & XSV-05/2R Single Conveying Units - Venturi Style 16of 36
Chapter 3: Functional Description
3-1 Method of Functioning
The single conveyor unit works
according to the Venturi Principle. An
external compressed air supply is
needed.
A venturi meter (A) is integrated in the
venturi assembly.
The venturi meter aspirates the material
in the lower part of the tube (C) and then
conveys the material into the conveyor
hopper using compressed air in the
upper part (B). In the hopper loader, the
material is separated from the air.
The filling level of conveyor hopper is
monitored and controlled by a level
sensor located on the sight glass below
the receiver.
Note: The venturi assembly is factory
pre-set for optimum conveying. DO NOT
ADJUST the venturi assembly.
This functional description is intended for the operating personnel of the
equipment.
General knowledge of operating conveyor units is required.
Ensure in each case that the operating personnel are
sufficiently informed.
The XSV-05/R and XSV-05/2R are designed for conveying dust-free
plastic granules and regrind material. Only the XSV-05/2R is capable of
conveying two materials.
