Structurally tough. Contamination-free. Conair’s aluminum silos
are designed to match the rigidity of a steel structure. Unlike a
steel structure, this silo requires no external painting or internal

or out.
Aluminum silos keep your expensive material in pristine
condition, free from contamination due to rust or flaking. The
silos are guaranteed to be water-tight.

Safely Directs Materials


to Conveyor Feed Tubes
Conair Tilters provide a safe method of moving free-flowing
materials to one corner of a shipping container for complete
emptying by a vacuum loader. They are built tough to withstand
heavy use on production floors.

The tilters can be used beside your processing machines or in


remote central material storage rooms to assure a constant flow
of material throughout your plant. Once emptied, simple foot-
or hand-operated controls level the container for removal and
replacement. 120 Series Raised

The compact TLM model Tube Loader makes it easy to provide
trouble-free automatic loading wherever you need it. Without
a traditional conical hopper, the exclusive tube loader design
means that your materials will always flow easily from the
loader with no bridging or interruptions. Although small, the
TLM vacuum loader provides material loading performance
comparable to much larger units with a 4.5-inch diameter
discharge valve and up to 150 lbs/hr of material transfer. You
can be sure that material will never become lodged inside the
loader, holding up your production. TLM TLM

The compact TLA Tube Loader makes it easy to provide trouble-
free loading wherever you need it. Using compressed air, the
TLA’s highly efficient venturi draws material from drums, bins
or gaylords. From there, the material is pushed to the compact
Tube Loader body that can be mounted to virtually any vessel
or machine throat. Using a unique, low maintenance filter
assembly, material is separated from the conveying air stream

and deposited directly into a bin or machine throat. The wide- Hopper Loading
open Tube Loader body keeps material flowing without bridging
and without a discharge valve common to other types of loaders.

How it Works

%,# -CONTROL
Figure 1 Figure 2
A signal from the loader’s demand switch indicates to
the ELC-M on the loader that it requires material to be
conveyed to satisfy its demand. The ELC-M sends a
signal to the vacuum motor on the loader to energize
and start a loading cycle. The material is then drawn
in by the loader’s vacuum motor. If the hopper is filled,
the demand switch will remain open (Figure 1) and
no further load cycles will be needed. However, if the
demand was not satisfied and the demand switch closes
(Figure 2) the loader will continue with loading cycles
until the demand is satisfied.

How it Works
The ELS Control is Conair’s most powerful material-handling
system. Scalable from the basic configuration of 90 loaders, to the
fully deployed configuration that can manage up to 500 loaders, the
ELS can be programmed for simple intuitive navigation.
I/O connections are located in compact modules near the loader or
pump location. Communication between the PLC and the modules
takes place via a single Ethernet cable. Adding more loaders to the
system is as simple as tying it into a remote module nearby.
The ELS control makes use of Allen-Bradley ArmorBlock
and ArmorPoint I/O modules. These are commonly available
components that make it easy to build and grow a control network.
Each ArmorBlock provides connections for up to 4 loaders, 3
pumps, and 8 material sources.
When expanding in larger increments, ArmorPoint modules can be
used to add up to 16 loaders, 12 pumps, and 32 sources with 1
Ethernet connection.
Because it is all Ethernet-based, ELS users have the advantage of
internet connectivity. Any device – computer, tablet, or even a smart
phone – with access to a company network, can be used to reach
the ELS control. Whatever can be done via the in-plant Ethernet-
connected monitors can also be completed on the remote device.

!RMOR"LOCK !RMOR0OINT

The ArmorBlock and ArmorPoint system allows for clean


installation, and features open design that is dust-tight and water-
tight. Rated for IP69K and NEMA 4X (when marked) for use without
an enclosure.
The panel can be mounted to C-channel framing and allows for
easy access to the ArmorBlock and ArmorPoint connections.
Connections are quick and simple, and the open design allows
for easy viewing of the connection and communication lights
incorporated on each panel.

Low-Noise, Vacuum
Conveying Power
For moderate distance conveying applications, nothing beats
the simplicity of a regenerative vacuum pump from Conair.
Replacing larger, more complex positive displacement pump/
motor units, RG Series Pumps utilize a one piece fan/motor unit
to produce reliable vacuum power for loading systems up to
450 feet {137 m} and 7000 lbs/hr {3175 kg/hr}.

The simple, compact design allows the pump to be installed


in nearly any indoor location, it can even be wall-mounted.
Because the operating sound level is very low, concerns over -ODEL2' 
noise pollution and proximity to personnel are minimal.

Single and Dual Stage Regenerative Pumps

Convey Bulk Material


From Railcars to Silos
Economically
Easily achieve high capacity conveying performance for
bulk unloading from railcars to silos without the high cost of
conventional vacuum/pressure units in the same pounds-per-
hour range.

Conair’s Cycling Loader works on a simple principle that delivers


thousands of pounds per hour over long distances with one
hopper and one pump, but without pump reversal and without
using a rotary feeder. A series of trouble-free flapper valves and
a four-way air flow reversing valve make the Cycling Loader
a convenient, self-contained system that alternately uses the
vacuum hopper as a pressure hopper. One 25 horsepower
Positive Displacement Pump provides both the vacuum and the #YCLING,OADER

pressure power by the action of the reversing valve.

Dependable, In-Line
Resin Flow Measurement
Measuring resin flow has never been easier nor more accurate.

The Conair ResinTrackerTM flow meter accurately measures resin


and/or regrind as they flow freely through its compact housing
with no holding hopper nor weigh bins. Inside the ResinTracker,
the patented weighing platform senses the mass flow of
material as it flows over the arc-shaped flow pan to measure
its weight and throughput via centripetal force regardless of
material type, density or uniformity of flow. The results are
effortless, accurate resin consumption records. ResinTracker can
also be applied to meet target weights with an integrated servo
2ESIN4RACKER-ODEL24 #6

weight has been achieved.

Common ResinTracker Applications


2OTO -OLDING
Labor intensive and often inaccurate hand-filling of molds
is replaced with fast, accurate dispensing of granular resin
into molds with a ResinTracker installed on a filling station
frame. The Integrated Control Valve in the ResinTracker
shuts off flow when a pre-programmed dispense quantity is
delivered. Different resin quantities are easily programmed
and selected by the operator.

'AYLORD&ILLING


The operator sets a target weight on the remote control for a
quantity of resin to be delivered into a gaylord box. Vacuum loaded
resin is first collected in a JIT Holding Hopper where it readily flows
into the ResinTracker that measures its weight as it passes into the
gaylord box below. The servo-driven Integrated Control Valve, built
into the ResinTracker, responds to the approaching target set point
and closes, to precisely meet the target weight in record time.

3HREDDER'RANULATOR
Reground and/or shredded material quantities are


accurately tracked with no interruption of flow by
passing the flow through a ResinTracker. Output can
be delivered by conveyor (shown here) or by cyclone,
vacuum, or compressed air unloading from the
granulator or shredder. The ResinTracker ignores the
variations in bulk densities that can be common to size
reduction for accurate record keeping of reclaim by
weight.

Touchscreen Control
The remote, touchscreen control provides operators with a simplified,
intuitive interface for collecting weight data as resin flows across the
ResinTracker’s weight platform, inside the main unit. The control
can also provide intuitive, easy inputting of target weights for filling
operations.
The NEMA 4 rated control includes a 7-inch, full color, touchscreen
display panel that can be used to select to default to flow rate or
totalization operations. User data storage is provided via a 2 GB
CompactFlash® card and calibration data is easily stored for multiple
types of flow.
The control includes operation of the ResinTracker’s Integrated Control

No Connectors,
No Wires, Fool Proof
Sophisticated Yet
Simplified Proofing
The differences between a standard material manifold station
like Conair’s RSS (Resin Selector Station), and one with the
ILP (Invisible Line Proofing) option are not something that can be
seen. The difference is in the engineering. Conair’s efficient RSS,
equipped with the ILP option uses sensors at the base of each
manifold, to proof connections and ensure that material conveys
only when the correct connections are made. There are no wires,
no clunky connectors, no cameras, and no special processes for
operators to follow. Connections are made as normal. No further
action necessary. ILP automatically assures that connections are
correct or material will not flow and an alarm on the control will
alert the operator that an incorrect connection was made.
Accuracy is at 100%, with no chance of operator error.

The Easiest Resin Proofing System Yet!

We hear it time and time again – material is


the primary expense in production. Proofing ` 3AFEGUARDSMATERIALIN2332ESIN3ELECTION3TATION TABLES

How it Works
Invisible Line Proofing, or ILP, does not use wires nor connectors nor any type of signal exchange between material line couplers to confirm
that source to destination material flow connections have been properly made by the user. If vacuum is not properly sensed, the ILP prevents
material flow.
An ILP installation includes ILP Sensors in each fantail manifold or individual material line, and an ILP Valve installed in the vacuum line.

Vision Proofing
Automatically Confirms
Resin Connections
Close the efficiency gap in material handling by ensuring that
source-to-destination connections are correct before conveying
the wrong material to the wrong location.

The patented new Material Vision Proofing (MVP) System is


easily added to Conair Resin Selection Stations and interfaces
with loading controls to assure that routing decisions set at the
control panel are made correctly, before material is allowed to
flow. An automatic, traveling camera works with the loading
control to make sure it can “see” the chosen connection with
no wires, special sensors, or couplings. An incorrect connection
inhibits material flow and signals an alarm. The press of a button 2ESIN3ELECTION3TATION233

Eliminates Angel Hair Patent
Pending
Conair’s patent-pending Wave ConveyingTM is distinctly different
than conventional conveying. While the 5000 plus feet-per-
minute speed of dilute phase conveying has been the preferred
method of material conveying for decades, it was never ideal
for some sensitive resins. Conair’s new Wave Conveying System
uses controlled-speed conveying (300 – 2800 feet-per-minute)
to move these more sensitive materials that often cause
problems like dust, angel hair, or wear to conveying systems
when conveyed at high speeds. Wave Conveying
System
Testing has shown that Wave Conveying can accommodate a
variety of throughput needs. As a result of the speed control used,
common conveying issues with sensitive materials are eliminated.

PATENT #US 9,745,149


How it Works
This conveying technology, developed by Conair to solve common conveying problems, utilizes specially modified Conair equipment to make
Wave Conveying’s speed-controlled resin conveying possible. Conair’s patent-pending system is a very cost effective way to solve many
conveying problems that have existed in the past. A carefully grouped set of products, working together thanks to the brains of Conair’s
FLX-128 Plus, make resin protection conveying possible. The conveying method of choice for the future, available today from Conair.

FLX-128 Plus
Conair’s widely popular FLX-128 conveying system control has been updated to
accomodate the features and functions necessary for Wave Conveying.
The FLX-128 Plus controls the LDP long distance pump(s), receivers, valves, and other
Wave Conveying components. The FLX-128 Plus allows your conveying system to
operate in Wave Conveying mode, conventional dilute phase mode, or both - using the
same LDP pump with recipe selection.

Long Distance Pump (LDP)


This deep vacuum pump works with a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) to allow for
energy savings, and specific control of the amount of vacuum necessary for moving the
pellets at the ideal speed that makes resin protection possible.

DuraLoad Receiver
The DuraLoad receivers that are used as part of an Wave Conveying System
communicate with the FLX-128 Plus and have a unique recipe for use with the system.

Wave Conveying Distribution Box and Wave Conveying Valve


Total control of the material flow is managed by Conair’s patented Wave Conveying
valve, connected directly to a distribution box installed below a material supply. Its
operation is automatic and controlled by the FLX-128 Plus conveying system control.

Wave Conveying Speed Sensor


With Wave Conveying’s patent-pending flow pattern, this speed sensor varifies that
material moves slowly, smoothly, and reliably from source to destination. Only with Wave
Conveying can the speed of moving material be measured in a vacuum conveying system.

Don’t worry - it’s all retrofitable. If you have an existing system with these components, you already have the majority of what you need to make an
Wave Conveying System in your plant. A few updates to your FLX-128, pump, and distribution box, and you’re well on your way to saving money and time by
eliminating the problem of wasted degraded material, not having to constantly replace worn elbows, and not having the clogs and conveying problems that,
before Wave Conveying, were just the cost of doing business with some “high maintenance” materials.

The Next Generation in


Mobile Cart Dryers
Mobile Drying and Conveying systems eliminate the need for
machine-mounted hoppers by placing all components on a safe,
convenient cart.
Set-up, pre-drying, clean-out and maintenance can all take
place without tying up valuable process machine time, or
climbing on the machine.
The MDCW system integrates an efficient Carousel Plus Dryer
with a conveying blower, dust collector and direct-feed vacuum
receiver to convey with dry air to the throat of a processing
machine. The self-loading option adds an integral hopper loader
which allows the MDCW to load itself. If you don’t need dry-air
conveying, order a non-dry air conveying MDCW with a dryer
and hopper, and add a self-contained vacuum loader.

$RYING-ONITOR

Save time and money from the aggravation of improperly dried material.
The Drying Monitor automatically monitors the heat profile inside your drying hopper with a 6-zone temperature probe, to protect
resin from over or under-drying. A control alarm and a light tower alert if proper drying is in jeopardy. Advanced notice provides
time to correct issues instead of wasted drying and product defects from common issues like: failed or out-of-place process
temperature probe, an improperly sized hopper or dryer for the application, lack of resin or loading equipment failure, reduced
airflow from dirty filters, linked hoses and other obstructions, unplanned throughput change and loss of power.
Your DC-A control will alarm on most dryer-related problems, but the Drying Monitor goes further to report proper drying happening
inside the drying hopper. !VAILABLEONMODELS-$#7ANDABOVE

The Next Generation in


Mobile Cart Dryers
Mobile Drying and Conveying systems eliminate the need for
machine-mounted hoppers by placing all components on a safe,
convenient cart.
Set-up, pre-drying, clean-out and maintenance can all take
place without tying up valuable process machine time, or
climbing on the machine.
The MDCW system integrates an efficient Carousel Plus Dryer
with a conveying blower, dust collector and direct-feed vacuum
receiver to convey with dry air to the throat of a processing
machine. The self-loading option adds an integral hopper loader
which allows the MDCW to load itself. If you don’t need dry-air
conveying, order a non-dry air conveying MDCW with a dryer
and hopper, and add a self-contained vacuum loader.

Drying Monitor

Save time and money from the aggravation of improperly dried material.
The Drying Monitor automatically monitors the heat profile inside your drying hopper with a 6-zone temperature probe, to protect
resin from over or under-drying. A control alarm and a light tower alert if proper drying is in jeopardy. Advanced notice provides
time to correct issues instead of wasted drying and product defects from common issues like: failed or out-of-place process
temperature probe, an improperly sized hopper or dryer for the application, lack of resin or loading equipment failure, reduced
airflow from dirty filters, linked hoses and other obstructions, unplanned throughput change and loss of power.
Your DC-A control will alarm on most dryer-related problems, but the Drying Monitor goes further to report proper drying happening
inside the drying hopper. Available on models MDCW50 and above.

Specifications
!PPLICATION.OTES
All dryers are supplied with an aftercooler/intercooler as standard. The aftercooler/intercooler
reduces the temperature of the return air from the drying hopper, improving the efficiency
of the desiccant. The aftercooler/intercooler should be connected with the proper water flow
rate and temperature to attain the optimal throughput.
7HENTOUSECENTRALMODELS
Central dryers do not have process heaters. These models should be used when drying
! multiple materials that require different drying temperatures. Central models dehumidify the
process air, which is then heated to the correct setpoint by a Hopper Temperature Controller
(HTC) or a “pre-heater” mounted on the hopper.
When to use additional filtration
The standard return air cartridge filter is sized for the airflow of each dryer model and is
suited for most applications. You should consider adding an optional dust collector and/or
volatile trap if:
• The material contains excessive fines. An additional dust collector or cyclone will extend
time between filter cleaning.
" # • The material produces volatiles during drying which condense into a waxy or oily residue.

Defect-Free Product
The DM-II Drying Monitor option can save you time and money,
and from the aggravation of dealing with improperly dried
material. The DM-II automatically monitors the temperature
profile inside your drying hopper within a pre-set temperature
band to protect you from overdrying or underdrying your
material. A warning alarm shown on the control display and light
tower alerts you to improper drying conditions. This advanced
notice provides time to diagnose and correct otherwise
undetected problems that can lead to defects in products.
In addition, the DM-II may be used to tune the dryer process
temperature to minimize energy consumption.

Conair extends the legacy of the patented Drying Monitor with
the introduction of the DM3-i. Drying performance analysis
occurs inside the drying hopper providing you with early
detection of poor drying conditions and allowing you to correct
potential issues before you have processed improperly dried
material. With the DM3-i, you will have control of polymer
drying, make defect-free parts, save energy and increase your
profitability.
Now available as an independent touch panel, the DM3-i model
can monitor up to 30 hoppers – even non-Conair hoppers. The
DM3 is also available as a dryer option, embedded into the dryer
control. Contact Conair for more information on the DM3-e.

Controlled by the Dryer
Conair’s new Heater Pack provides direct heat at the bottom
of the hopper, where you need it most, but is conveniently
controlled by the Conair’s dryer control. It’s no longer necessary
to make adjustments at the dryer, followed by moving to a
separate control to make adjustments at the hopper. Now all
adjustments to your drying process are convenient and quick, at

Another significant convenience and cost savings of the new
Heater Pack is that only a single power drop is required which

Perfect for Preheating


Non-Hygroscopic Materials
For non-hygroscopic materials (like Polyethylene and
Polypropylene) compressed air drying and desiccant drying is
not necessary. Using simple heated air can remove the surface
moisture from the pellets. Hot Air Dryers are a simple system,
consisting of a heater, a blower, a temperature controller, and
a filter. This system is typically paired with a drying hopper for
effective drying of non-hygroscopic resins. The system can also
be used for pre- or post-drying of hygroscopic resins that have
been, or will be thoroughly dried by a desiccant dehumidifying
dryer.

Using a modular design, the HAD system can be easily configured


to work with various plant layouts and drying configurations.

Convert Amorphous PET


to Usable Cystalline Material
With the increased use of PET in plastic processing, the
efficient use of amorphous regrind material is critical. A Conair
Crystallizing System allows you to convert amorphous PET to a
crystalline state that then can be dried. The drying can occur at
elevated temperatures to obtain low moisture levels without the
fear of agglomeration.

The Conair Crystallizing System consists of a high temperature


heat source, an insulated hopper with an agitator and a rotary
discharge valve. This equipment can be easily integrated with
other material handling equipment.

Keep It Dry
While You Blend
When process flow specifications dictate that materials are
dried and then blended, your process can suffer from unwanted
moisture regain in your dried material. Standard blenders,
incapable of dealing with hot material can operate erratically,
with seal and/or bearing failures, heat loss, sensor malfunctions
and hot surface hazards.

Conair TBI Insulated Blenders are specifically outfitted to handle


hot material safely, reliably and most importantly, prevent
moisture from re-saturating your dried material.

Continuous Blending
in Exact, Precise Ratios
TrueWeighTM Continuous Blenders provide extremely precise
loss-in-weight dispensing of dry solids of various size and bulk
densities including pellet, regrind, micro-bead and powder.
These highly consistent and repeatable blenders are ideally
suited to extrusion processes that require perfect blend
homogeneity and extremely accurate dosing.

Designed for extrusion rates to 3,000 lb/hr {1,360 kg/hr},


TWB Blenders are available with up to six component positions.

Positive/negative pressure units use a jet pump/venturi to produce negative pressure in the “from process” lines. Water at positive pressure
will leak out of mold cracks or bad o-rings. During negative pressure operation, however, air is drawn through the lines, and the mold
operates without leaking. A manual three-way ball valve can be closed to make these units into standard direct injection units. Because the
units use water and vent to the atmosphere, they have a maximum process temperature of 180°F {82.2°C}.

The adiabatic design SAVESWATERANDENERGY by keeping the process fluid separate


from the water evaporated during the adiabatic process. By only utilizing the adiabatic
process when it is absolutely required during higher outdoor air temperatures, the unit
minimizes water consumption to fractions of traditional systems.
The reduction in compressor energy usage permits higher coefficients of performance,

Helical Rotary Screw Compressor


• Helical screw design results in part
load performance far superior to single
reciprocating compressors.
• Only four moving parts when compared to
reciprocating compressors; there are no
pistons, connecting rods, suction and dis
charge valves or mechanical oil pump.
• Latest heat transfer technology results in
increased condenser and evaporator tube
efficiency.
• Reduced rotor tip clearance results
in reduced leakage between the high
and low pressure cavities during
compression.
• Resistant to liquid slugging this
compressor design can handle amounts
of liquid refrigerant that would severely
damage a reciprocating compressor. #UTAWAYOFHELICALROTARYSCREWCOMPRESSOR

Specification Notes (see following pages)


* Based on water temperature (100% water) leaving the chiller, 50°F {10°C} water temperature drop through the evaporator, standard pump selections, 95°F {35°C} ambient air
temperature, for the 60 Hz units. Capacity ratings are (+/-) 5% based on compressor manufacturer’s ratings and are subject to change without notice.

Leaving water temperature setpoints lower than 40°F {4.4°C} requires the “Low Temperature Processing” option and the use of Glycol. Capacities shown are with 30%
Propylene Glycol. Capacities with 6°F {3.3°C} temperature drop to meet minimum evaporator flow requirements.

Chilled water flow is based on nominal capacity at 50°F {10°C} leaving water temperature and 10°F {5.6°C} water temperature drop through the evaporator.
§
Differential pressure (drop) through evaporator is for listed nominal design flow of 100% water.
** GRV: Grooved pipe connections.
††
MCA: Minimum circuit ampacity. MOP: Maximum overcurrent protection. Where two numbers are listed, dual power source is required. An additional 120/1/60, 15 amp
customer provided power connection is required to power evaporator heaters. Rated Voltage Usage Range: 200/3/60 (180-220), 230/3/60 (208-254), 460/3/60 (414-506),

How it Works
Process fluid enters through the process return connection to the
recirculation tank. The recirculation pump moves it through the
brazed plate evaporator cooled by R-410A refrigerant, back to the
tank, and out through the process supply connection.

As water enters the bottom of the strainer and flows upward,
heavier sediment and debris is deflected and accelerated
downward into the large debris reservoir in the base of the
strainer. Sediment and debris are then purged from the reservoir
through the debris flush port. #&3SERIESSTRAINERS

of Process Temperature
Conair’s central cooling systems can put money back in your
pocket by supplying precise process water temperature and
pressure for your application. If you need more than 20 tons
capacity to cool dies, molds, screws, barrels or machine
hydraulics, a central system could be the solution.

Air or Water-Cooled Systems, From 20 to Over 1000 Tons

` #ONSERVEENERGYANDWATER
Replacing portable chillers with a central cooling system can
cut energy costs by as much as a third. Recirculating cooling
water through a tower-chiller system also reduces water and
sewer bills. Optional pressure-controlled variable frequency
drives (VFD’s) provide optimal performance at reduced energy
costs.

In noisy manufacturing environments, immediately see and hear where your process
problem is before you lose production and quality. The Conair Universal Alarm Box signals
with a loud, clear buzzer and a flashing strobe light notifying you of a problem.
The alarm box is designed to alert workers of a problem with dryers, blenders, loading,
material flow and material levels. Connect directly to existing alarm signals, or use where
no alarm signals presently exist. See the Audible/Visual Alarm and Alarm Kits specification
sheet in the Conveying section for more details.

Less Floor-Space;
Great Versatility
Conair’s 8 Series super-tangential granulators have footprint
dimensions at least 30% smaller than many other granulators
with similar capabilities. Multiple cutting chamber configurations
are ideal for handling lightweight bulky parts such as bottles,
as well as runners, film, edge trim and parts. Different hopper
designs and rotor/knife choices are available to maximize
performance with a wide variety of scrap types.

A tilt-back hopper and drop down screen cradle provide easy


access to the cutting chamber for maintenance and cleaning.
These features contribute to increased productivity and reduced
downtime. An optional sound attenuation package also makes
the 8 Series quieter than other small granulators.

Precise Measurement
Of Material Throughput
Engineered as part of the Conair TrueWeighTM Gravimetric
Extrusion Control System, the TrueWeigh hopper measures the
mass flow of material into the extrusion process and sends
this loss-in-weight information to the TrueWeigh controller. The
controller then accurately monitors or adjusts the extruder screw
RPM and/or haul-off RPM to maintain a consistent yield control.
This enables an operator to run a uniform product within the
tightest tolerances at the lowest possible cost.

The touchscreen PAVC+ vacuum control maintains a constant and
precise vacuum pressure within the tank. Connections are provided
for automatic feedback control of the setpoint by use of X/Y laser
scanners that monitor the profile. The PAVC+ provides recirculation
and vacuum pump Start and Stop, with input conditioning. Setpoint
adjustment is done via the HMI control panel of the vacuum tank.
The local setpoint can also be adjusted externally via Raise and
Lower contacts, or Ethernet communications.
With recipe storage and optional Ethernet communication for
interfacing with a host computer or other equipment, the PAVC+
control is ideal for fine tuning vacuum sizing and storing those
settings for rapid startups in the future.

High-Intensity Spray
for more Rapid Cooling
Conair MSBHI Series cooling tanks produce a high-pressure
spray that cools tube and profile extrusions faster and in less
space than immersion tanks.

For pipe and tube of significant mass, immersion tanks


compromise cooling efficiency due to the formation of an
insulation layer over the hot product surface. MSBHI high
intensity spray tanks eliminate this problem and increase cooling
efficiency through the process of extreme turbulent cooling.
Cooling water droplets striking the hot surface rapidly conduct
the heat away and are driven off in a continuous process.

Conserve Space with


Multi-pass Flood Cooling
Conair’s MPCB Series multi-pass tanks are designed for
applications where space is tight and a combination
puller/cooling tank is needed. The MPCB tank utilizes servo
driven multi-pass sheaves within the cooling tank to circulate
product multiple times within a limited space. Multi-pass tanks,
a Conair invention, are designed to minimize floor space and
water consumption by utilizing a shorter length of tank for
multiple passes of product. Product can pass through the three
compartments of the MPCB tank up to five times, thus giving
120 feet {36 m} of flood cooling with only a 27-foot long {8 m}

Automatic Cycles for


Consistent Operation
Conair DT Series Dump Tables provide a long, stable holding
surface for pipe, tubing, and profiles as they emerge from
extrusion operations. Located directly after the cutter or saw, the
DT provides a smooth, firm landing until cutting is complete, then
automatically dumps the cut extrusion to an off-line location, then
quickly returns to home position, ready to accept the next length.
The dump sequence is fully automated and typically programmed
to occur as soon as the extruded product is cut to length and
needs to be moved to make way for the next piece.

The use of a Conair Dump Table eliminates typical hang-up


points in large extruded product operations, preserving finished
product integrity and uniformity.
