The technology makes the Reactor Powder Loading an ideal solution for controlled material addition. Suitable for the transfer of raw, intermediate or finished products, it is a versatile work horse for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, as well as other industries with various powder / solid handling needs.

The Reactor vessel is installed in a room with several other vessels with limited space for local bulk powder charging. So the best solution is to install a contained powder loader to convey the powder to the reactor using an integrated vacuum transfer system.The SS316 Loader unit is mounted directly on the Top of the Reaction Vessel; the outlet of Loader is connected to a Pump installed in the nearby areas. The inlet suction of Loader is connected with PVC non toxic, transparent food grade SS wire braided hose duly fitted with SS316 suction nozzle at the other hand. The suction nozzle further provided with protective grill at the inlet of the nozzle to suction only powder from the bag or hopper.

A dilute phase vacuum powder transfer takes place, powder is sucked into the Powder transfer unit until it reaches a pre-set level, at this point the inlet valve is closed and the bottom outlet valve is open to allow the powder to discharge, under gravity, into the reactor. The discharge is also aided by a pulse of high pressure nitrogen through the PPF filters. The discharge valves then close and the cycle is repeated until all of the powder has been transferred.

The Powder Transfer system is nitrogen inerted and designed to comply with ATEX regulations. The system is operated via a touch screen HMI and incorporates interlocks to ensure operator safety. (Optional).
