Volumetric Feeders Accurately Meter Dry Solids
Time-tested unit now features a unique, dissimilar-speed, double-concentric, auger-metering mechanism.
Introduced in 1965, the Model 105 Series Volumetric Feeders from Acrison Inc. are now furnished with a unique dissimilar speed, double concentric auger metering mechanism specifically designed to deliver highly accurate and dependable dry solids metering.
Model 105 Series Feeders are available in three different models with feed ranges up to 220 ft3/hr and feature all-steel heavy-duty construction for low maintenance requirements and long service life.
Acrison says other volumetric dry solids feeders have a single auger typically located at the very bottom of a converging V-shape trough, which allows bridging to occur even when the trough is vibrated or agitated. The Model 105 has a Double Concentric Auger Metering Mechanism which, on the other hand, gently conditions material to a uniform consistency while simultaneously filling the metering auger from a full 360° to assure positive flow and feed while maintaining total control of product for unsurpassed levels of processing performance.
A quick-disconnect feature, sanitary construction to satisfy USDA and FDA requirements, and high temperature and pressure construction are available options.
