Description
PEBCO® Telescopic Chutes are ideal for outdoor stockpiling or ship loading for their ability to contain product during freefall and accommodate a variety of application sizes and flow rates.
- Typically used for outdoor stockpiling of material or to load ships or barges
- Contains product during freefall from conveyor to pile, minimizing wind-blown dust
- Construction can be in any number of sections, diameters, or lengths to accommodate a variety of applications and huge range of flow rates
- Usual construction is carbon steel, abrasion resistant steel, and stainless
- Loose running clearances prevent binding of tubes due to material buildup
- Heavy rings on both ends reinforce each end of the tube and insure concentricity
- Tube diameters increase down the chute eliminating the possibility of plugging
- Tivar® tubes are available where weight or sticky products are a concern
Options
- Tube-to-tube seals reduce dusting, particularly with Tivar®
- Drop-in inlet tube liner can dramatically increase chute life
- Trimming spoons distribute material radially from centerline
- Gimbals allow the chute to pivot when used on elevating conveyor booms
- Remote mount or integral winches include electrically released, mechanically applied brake
- Spray rings provide large volumes of water to reduce dust at the pile
- Fog spray headers by The Raring Corp encapsulate dust at the pile
- End of travel, ultimate-up, and slack cable limit switches provide feedback
- Tilt probe(s) sense material at the chute outlet
- Plugged chute sensors protect the system
- Auto-Raise and Auto-Lower control panels
- Controls
