Weigh hoppers play a critical role in the efficient operation of any batch plant. In the event that pressure or vacuum are present in the weigh hopper during the weighing process, plant efficiency can be dramatically affected. We offer a range of venting solutions depending upon the physical size, volume and rate of fill of the weigh hopper.
HopperFix
HopperFix is a simple, low cost venting filter which helps minimise dust escaping to the atmosphere on small hoppers and vessels. Using a unique push-fit cartridge and mounting spigot. HopperFix is quick, simple to install & maintain. The compact design and footprint makes it ideal for even the tightest of mounting positions.
WAM HopperJet
HOPPERJET® is a compact venting filter for mechanically filled hoppers. Dust which is separated from the air flow by a single POLYPLEAT® or bag-type filter element drops back into the hopper after an integrated automatic reverse air jet cleaning system inside the weather protection cover has removed the dust particles from the filter elements.
HopperMax ConicalAir
Designed for large scale weigh hoppers, the HopperMax can cope with higher air volumes to help prevent over pressurisation during filling and vacuum during discharge. The unit features 2 cartridges which are reverse jet cleaned alternately ensuring that a vent channel remains open at all times.
