Hygienic design Wet cleaning with jet cleaner Gasket easy to remove for drying after wet cleaning and easy to install as no adhesive is required The gasket is composed of silicone and is metal detectable. The sack support can be folded down or completely detached. Gas springs open the cover after releasing the clamps Cover switch for controlling system functions The cover switch complies with safety requirements for applications up to performance level D. Outlet, optimally adapted to downstream devices Suitable for ATEX zone 22 and 2 The hygienic design hopper serves to feed bulk solids in powdered and granular form into closed materials handling systems, especially in areas calling for the highest standards in hygiene. Products can be fed from sacks, boxes, drums or similar receptacles. Design The feeding hopper is available in two different grades of stainless steel with a roughness depth of < 0.6 µm or < 0.8 µm depending on the surface finish. The radii on the inside of the feeding hopper are greater than 50 mm and can be cleaned leaving no residue. Wet cleaning is carried out with the integrated jet cleaner. The gasket used for the cover can easily be replaced as required, as it is not attached with adhesive. It is made of silicone and is metal detectable. The feeding hopper is suitable for use in zones 22 and 2 areas where there is a risk of explosion. To avoid dust escaping when sacks are discharged, an aspiration process can be connected that starts when the cover of the feeding hopper is opened.
