The Pneumatic Distance-Knocker QJ is suitable for knocking against slow-moving drums and filling or emptying stations with moving containers. The knocker type QJ can be mounted at a distance from the rotating drum or a container. The operating principle is identical to the knocker type K, but the impact pulse is transferred to a piston rod which moves to the container. The drum or container wall is touched only briefly during knocking and transmits the impact pulse.
The Pneumatic Distance-Knocker QJ is used, for example, in rotary kilns, drum drying systems, filter cup knocking
stations, centrifuge drum cleaning stations and many other applications.
With rotating drums, a knocker is fitted vertically from above and strikes at a slight angle against the direction of rotation on a traverse.
Important parameters for the selection of the right knocker:
• Thickness of the container or drum
• Material of the container or drum
• Diameter of the container or drum
• Operating temperature
• If present, insulation thickness for the selection of the mounting
• Protection type for operating environment
