Preheater
Type PDA 1410/1700/2000

A preheater for preheating chips,

equipped with an agitator and a plug
screw feeder as discharger.

The levelling bin consists of chip inlet, tapered shell,

agitator and a plug screw feeder with feed screw,
compression zone, chip- and drain outlet.

The agitator is driven by an AC-motor via a worm

gear unit. The screw feeder is journalled by oil
lubricated bearings, and driven by a frequency
controlled AC-motor via a foot mounted gear reducer.

A stuffing box or a mechanical sealing seals the

agitator shaft, the screw feeder shaft is sealed with a
stuffing box.

Material
Parts exposed to the process media are made of
stainless steel.

Design data
The Preheater is manufactured in accordance with EU
regulations and standards concerning the European
Machine Directive 2006/42/EC.
