Controls
Most of our spirals are shipped without controls because they are normally
integrated into an overall conveyor control system. The spirals always
include an inverter duty gear motor and two proximity sensors, one for the
automatic chain tensioner and the other for the overload protection device.
A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is required for the proper operation of the
spiral. Ryson offers several controls options including :
Bucket Elevators with
Rugged Construction
The Ryson Bucket Elevators are designed to withstand many years of heavy
duty operations. Elevators with multiple outlets have selective bucket
tipping capabilities created by an air actuated tipping ramp. The last
tipping ramp stays in a fixed position to assure that all buckets are
emptied.
The chain is a 2″ roller chain with hollow pin shaft and 1 1/8″ diameter
rollers. The conveying surface is made of polyurethane for smooth and quiet
operation. The buckets are made of a food grade reinforced polycarbonate
molded in one piece that can handle temperatures from -5 to 215 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Anti-static and stainless steel buckets are optional. The bucket elevators
allow for controlled feeds at one or more locations and can easily interface
with various types of feeding devices.
Bucket Elevator Models
Three standard models are available, sized to handle capacities of up to
350, 830 and 2,000 cubic feet per hour. Ryson also provides custom solutions
to help those with needs that fall outside of our standard models.
