Silo pump (pressure vessel type granular pneumatic conveying equipment) is an integrated system designed for the efficient transportation of powder/granular materials, and its core role is to realize the continuous and stable supply of materials from the silo to the processing equipment through positive pressure pneumatic conveying technology. The equipment is suitable for food, chemical, building materials and other industries, can process plastic particles, feed, flour, cement and other bulk materials, the conveying distance can reach 200 meters, the conveying capacity range of 0.5-30 tons/hour, especially suitable for dust-free, automated production scenarios. In feed processing plants, silo pumps can accurately control the ratio of raw materials to avoid dust pollution and ratio errors caused by manual feeding; In cement production lines, its closed conveying design reduces material loss and equipment wear.

The equipment adopts the combined structure of pressure vessel rotary feed valve, which pushes the material from the bottom of the silo to the conveying pipeline through compressed air, and then realizes quantitative feeding through the rotary feed valve.
Its core benefits include:

Fully enclosed conveying: avoid material leakage and cross-contamination, in line with GMP/HACCP standards;

Modular design: support single-point or multi-point feeding, flexible access to existing production lines;

Intelligent control: equipped with pressure sensor and inverter, it can adjust the conveying wind speed and feeding volume in real time;

Wear-resistant material: The conveying pipeline is made of carbon steel lined with ceramic or stainless steel to prolong the service life.
