Solids Conveying Eductors
|
NCI solids conveying
eductors are used to economically transport free flowing solids,
powders and slurries
with an available liquid or gas pressure source. Solids can
be transported for distances up to 400 feet pneumatically
and farther using water or other liquid as a transport medium.
NCI's scope of supply ranges from a single eductor to packaged
eductor mixing stations, feed systems and conveying networks
with ancillary equipment such as pumps, fans, hoppers, separators,
receivers, piping, ductwork, control panels, valves and gauges
for a complete skid mounted assembly.

Application: |
Solids conveying eductors
are used to mix powders with liquids to make solutions or to
convey various materials. Some materials handled include ash,
sugar, gloves, activated carbon, drilling mud, plastic pellets,
trim, lime, sludge, talc, grain, salt, ion exchange resins,
alumina, quartz, plastic regrind, diatomaceous earth, ice cream
mix, food ingredients and numerous other substances. |

Advantages: |
Like many ejectors,
solids eductors create a slight vacuum at the suction inlet.
This eliminates the "fines blow-back" associated
with the positive pressure found in blower conveying. The
reduction of dust results in a cleaner work environment and
often eliminates the requirement for operators to use safety
equipment that can hinder worker efficiency.
An NCI solids conveying eductor is an ideal alternative to
expensive and maintenance intensive motor driven rotary feed
valves and conveyor belts. They can be supplied in erosion
resistant materials for a fraction of the cost of mechanical
conveying equipment. The simplicity of a design with no moving
parts further reduces maintenance costs and makes our solids
eductors ideally suited for explosive environments.

Construction: |
NCI can supply solids
eductors in carbon steel, stainless steel, plastics, ni-hard
and many other materials depending upon the application requirements.
