Increase the life of an existing Kadant Johnson syphon elbow by upgrading to the spring-lock syphon elbow. This simple, inexpensive upgrade installs quickly and easily using your existing joint and syphon pipes. The corrosion-resistant materials and increased robustness of the syphon elbow assembly improves syphon performance and reduces maintenance downtime. The spring-lock elbows are available off-the-shelf for immediate delivery.
Spring-Lock Design
Kadant Johnson spring-locking elbows consist of the standard gravity-lock elbow and a spring-lock assembly. The spring-lock assembly consists of five parts:
(2) Pipe collars, stainless steel (identical parts) (2) Collar straps (identical parts) (1) Locking spring, stainless steel
Features of the Kadant Johnson spring-lock system:
The collars and spring are stainless steel, to avoid corrosion.
The spring-lock assembly can be assembled without any tools.
The pivot pins in the collars cannot loosen and fall out.
The straps are contoured to guide the elbow into the open position for easier removal.
The spring is located on the radial syphon pipe, to minimize the extension into the dryer.
