FLSmidth Feeder P Rotary (Airlock)

General FLSmidth manufactures three (3) types of “P” feeders with closed end rotors: Type I Body end plates constructed of #50 cast iron with fabricated stainless steel rotor. Type II Body and rotor constructed of type 304 stainless steel with aluminum end plates. Type III Complete 304 stainless steel (body, rotor and end plates). Body and End Plates The body and end plates have heavy-duty construction and permit minimum rotor clearances. Motor support lugs are cast as an integral part of the body, and permit the mounting of the gearmotor directly on the unit, resulting in a compact package. The end plates have integral-cast outboard bearing supports and male-female joints between end plates and feeder body ensuring concentricity. Rotor All rotors are beveled and constructed of type 304 stainless steel or fabricated steel. Rotors have six or seven vanes with at least four vanes in seal between inlet and outlet. Bearings are shielded, anti-friction and mounted on rotor shaft outboard of the packing gland. Motor Mount & Drive Gearmotors are mounted directly to feeder body. Fractional gearmotors are TENV. Integral horsepower gearmotors are TEFC. All gearmotors are 3 phase, 230/460 Volts AC, 60 Hz. Special Notes All standard “P” Rotary feeders (airlocks) are designed to handle material having maximum temperature of 150°F (65°C). Above 150°F to 450° (65°C to 232°C) requires additional periphery clearance. Note : Basic assemblies (with/out Drive) are also available.
