Function:
The Stainless Steel Cleanout Disc is used to clean the tubing inside walls. The disc functions as a scraper cleaning the inside walls preventing product build-up.
These discs may be easily added to the cable as needed because the cable does not have to be cut in the assembly process. Back Top ^
CLEANOUT DISC: C00156
Function:
The Cleanout Disc is used to wipe the inside walls of the tubing. It is made of a urethane disc measuring 4 ¼” in diameter. Because it is larger than the inside diameter of the tube, it is able to move loose product that would settle inside tubes and sweep corners. Back Top ^
AIR KNIVES, 4 INCH DRIVE: C00173
Function:
The Air Jet is an accessory used for cleaning off the discs while the system is in operation. The Air Jet assembly is most commonly attached to the flared entry port in the drive unit, though it may be attached to the exit port or both ports. This component should be attached and regulated by the facility’s pneumatic system. Back Top ^
Function:
The Cleanout Section is installed in the conveyor line above the product delivery location. As the discs push product into the Cleanout Section, a 24-inch (60.96cm) long by 5-inch (12.70cm) wide opening in the bottom of the Cleanout Section permits the product to free fall out of the conveyor. To completely empty the system of all product being conveyed, the cable discs slide up and drop off a short plastic block. This action produces a side-to-side vibration in the cable and discs which shakes product off the cable and disc shoulders and out of the conveyor.
