- Intended for enclosed loading.

Details:
The Vortex Loading Spout features a four-cable lifting design with CNC-machined pulleys to reduce cable wear and backlashing. The Vortex Compact In-Line Filtration System features pulse jets above each filter. The pulse jets continuously purge the filters so that accumulated dusts are routed back down through the spout and into the loading vessel below. This improves operations by allowing material dusts to be loaded as product, rather than being transferred as waste to a dust collection system.
